in terms of effort it was all there, hard working chef own restaurant and with so many dishes for a 35$ set menu is very impressive, i can't say i wasn't hungry after, if i was on a diet or on a cleanse i will go back in a heartbeat but giving the fact i had to go get food after is a msg to any restaurant owner to take that into consideration, oh and we were 4 small asians felling the same way, enough said.
