| - We met friends on New Year's Day. Beautiful restaurant, great service. $180 for shark fin soup? Try $400. That's what it was on that day. Maybe it went down 2 days later because it wasn't as fresh? Anyway, given the controversy behind shark fin soup, I don't think anyone should be eating it. May have to report them to my friends at PETA...
Actually a little overzealous with the water refills (we had bottled water and they refilled our half empty glasses with tap water and charged us for the bottled water anyway. Sorry, but that's a NYC no-no.) The wonton soup was great. One of my dining companions had a crab and corn soup, she later had food poisoning. Fried rice got good reaction. I had the shrimp pan fried noodles, which were great, JB had the Singapore style noodles which he loved. Overall everyone was very happy with their meal pre-food poisoning, if not with the price.
You can do the same, if not, much better in Chinatown on Spring Mountain for a lot less money. Yes, the decor is beautiful, but you can probably decorate your own space with the money you save dining elsewere.
Although a diner in a compact wheelchair was able to be seated, it was a very tight fit and other diners had to be disrupted to be able to get this person seated. I wouldn't recommend for wheelchairs.
