| - We had dinner reservations at 10:15pm on Saturday (April 9th) and due to the craziness of it all, our group of ten ladies ended up at two different tables (5/5). (Our other option was to wait until 11pm to be seated at one table; no thanks!) Btw, dinner reservations gets you complimentary entry to Tao Nightclub, which is right above the restaurant. A promoter gave me and my girls bracelets for free drinks upstairs from 10pm-11pm and we managed to get one drink before being seated for dinner.
The food was good as usual (see pics):
* Chicken satay with peanut sauce ($10)
* Soy ginger-glazed salmon with udon noodles ($26)
* Unagi (one for $5)
* Uni (one for $8)
May seem like a lot of food, but bear in mind that the portions are very small. You're paying more for the ambiance, I would say. I also tried their Tao-tini ($13), which was good and strong. ;-)
Although the initial plan was to dance the night away at Tao Nightclub, our "new friends" from Tryst invited us to Marquee Nightclub at the Cosmopolitan Hotel. We took them up on the offer since it's the new "IT" club, and we didn't have to wait in line or pay cover. However, in hindsight, even though we had a good time at Marquee, I wish we had stayed at Tao.
