After a long walk on a hot day, my husband decided to take me to Plum. He'd heard some generally good things about it. The place was indeed pretty nice (ambience +) and the service was actually pretty good. Because we didn't have reservations, we ended up opting for bar seating, since they were full on reservations. Plum had a lot going for it, but I thought the food could be better. The hubby pretty much said the same thing that W Z. had... "there was nothing Beijing about the Beijing pork loin". It also tasted like the meat should have been marinated in the sauce, if they were still going to use what they had.. We also had the red curry. For both, it seemed like some of the ingredients were skimped.. there is such a thing as subtle flavoring, but just about everything was barely there... except for the spice, which they handled well enough. I think I would like them better if the food had more flavor, more personality. It wasn't bad, but I know I can move on to something else.
