Food is still quite good, but not as good as in days gone by. Service is beyond excellent. It is extremely pricey ($1200 for 6 people -- only 3 drinking alcohol - and barely 2 drinks each - no wine). Loud but not unbearable. Still would go just for the chicken satay, or candied beef.

We had Christmas Eve dinner here and the service was great , food was fresh and delicious and there was no rush to leave. I mention that because a few other spots had a 90 minute max written in the reservation. I have never had fancy Chinese food before but this was our first experience with it. I will come back again.
