Helen's large tables and booths fill with groups of young and well-heeled Chinese playing drinking games, smoking hookah pipes, dancing to hip-hop and house, and eating tasty snacks. It's dimly lit, very friendly and a lot of fun, and there are views across the lake from some booths. Another, equally popular branch is further west on Dieshan Lu.
