Don Don YATAI closed its doors for the very last time on the evening of 29th August. 💝

Ever since we announced our closure, so many of you have dropped by to show support - some even came more than once 🫶🏼. Your kind words 💕 and encouragement 💪🏼 really meant a lot to us. The hugs, the goodbyes, and the little moments with our regular customers particularly touched us deeply 🥹. These warm memories will stay with every member of our team for a long time. 🥰

Over the past five years, Don Don YATAI became a spot where families and friends gathered in Cardiff 😙. We hope this restaurant left you with a few good shared memories too. 🤗

🤞🏼Until next time. Take care.👋🏼

Diolch a hwyl fawr!

Don Don YATAI 於 8月29號晚最後一次關上營業的大門。💝

自宣布結業以來，許多客人特地前來支持，甚至一來再來 🫶🏼。你們的祝福 💕 和鼓勵 💪🏼，我們都深深記在心裡。熟客臨別時的不捨、擁抱與話別，更令我們無比動容 🥹，這些溫暖的片段，將長久留在每位團隊成員的記憶中。🥰

過去五年，Don Don YATAI 在 Cardiff 成為不少家庭與朋友的聚腳點 😙，我們希望這餐廳也曾為你們留下了一點點共同的美好回憶。🤗

🤞🏼有緣再見，珍重﹗👋🏼
