I still LOVE the crispy duck! I've even converted one of my companions to come back for it with the hubby.

I love how we don't have to ask for more rice. It really is limitless.

The chef makes his rounds non-intrusively table to table to see if his…More »

Sorry Connie, I don't agree with your review.  But then again, I have never ordered the garlic pepper beef stir-fry. I'm certain if I was chewing on gristle or fat, then I would feel the same and not bother coming back.

EEK! Vanessa's review differs drastically from mine, but I have never ordered take out from the Indian Hut.

However, I do know there's a worthy, appetizing, fantastic Indian lunch buffet for only $10.95 located in it!

Is pho a dirty soup? Let's hope it's not!
But everytime I have pho here, it just tastes so much cleaner.

I think I was forced to order a 4 course meal at the Sultan's Tent. Serves me right. I arrived late. But I don't think any of us had an option. So a 4 course meal for all of us it is!

Highlights were my 2nd and 4th course. I've dined here twice…More »

I'm Asian and have never tried Hakka food. To be more specific, I'm an eighth Chinese. I know, I know. Tsk tsk. Shame on me. I even had to have Jennifer N clarify what Hakka food is.

The other day, I finally had my first Hakka meal thanks to Jennifer…More »

I'm out of practice.

I haven't gone out for dinner on this overrated, fake holiday (aka Valentine's day) for too many years. I was displeased to be greeted by the 20 people line up prior to seeing any staff member of Il Fornello.

Luckily, the staff…More »

I used to like spring rolls.  But that was over 8 years ago. When there was only this location... when it was that narrow restaurant with no upstairs seating... when it used to be authentic Thai cuisine.

Spring Rolls is now only semi-so-so.

Heaps of food graced our presence at the table and so did heaps of oil on the plates. Ew!

I didn't dare stuff myself to my fullest potential as I normally do when I had Chinese. I honestly was disgusted. Chinese food is normally greasy, but this was…More »
