Customer Review:

Models and lion dance supplied by Cyrus were top notch. Lion dance puppets looks new and have no hints of usage. The lion dance performance justified Cyrus’s claims that lion dance are local champions in 2018, really really good. 2 female models that Cyrus recommended for our dinner were professional, not students in Polytechnics and are full time models. Boss gave me a thumbs up. I gave Cyrus 2 thumbs up.
