Yet again, another restaurant that won’t take the risk and put some of the interesting things on the menu that they have at the NYC location. Are Philadelphians too retarded to understand food? What is it? Why do we have to settle for another restaurant with Pad Thai while the New Yorkers get Wild Mushroom Chow Fun? Can I please try the Taro Puff Lollipops? Or the Edamame dumplings in Sauternes broth?

The assumption is anyone off the island is too uncultured to appreciate such things. Bah! I’m sick of having to pay $400 a night to sleep in Manhatten to eat their damn food. ;p

Don’t get me wrong, as I’ve indicated I do want to try eating here. It sounds good. The menu is just a lot more generic when comparing it to the New York menu. I love eating family style, too.

one of my favorite restaurants.

The food is served in a 2-3person serving size, and is brought out when done. (order 2-3 meals for 4 people; food brought to the table when it’s ready, not all at once)

The opal ‘family style’ table is a hot spot to eat, it’s about 15 per side, and can have multiple parties sitting at it.
