I visited the museum in 2011 and 2015, and now i have the chance to visit the restaurant called Pronto Steak and Pasta. The museum is a pretty good place to explore and enhance your knowledge about art, and it offers free guide so you can understand each painting interpretations. While the restaurant has decent food that are served pretty quickly (so the guests dont have to wait long to enjoy their dish). The staffs on museum and restaurant are all helpful and nice, i love this place so much 😊
