Multiple possibilities – is it the characters in that particular combination that translate to Soothing/Comforting the Heart? Though the dictionary lists many combinations with other characters, this particular combo doesn’t happen to be one of them.

Otherwise, I suppose I could have as easily gone with Soothing Mind Place as Cheerful Heart Restaurant, but the point wouldn’t change, right?

Hope you find the Argentine restaurant there in HK, would love to hear about it!

I came across your web whilst looking up Argentine cuisine. Some friends were going on about a good argentine restaurant here in HK.

? – workshop.

So what they’re trying to say is that their establishment is focused on making you feel better… or something
