Peter Chang added a new meal First dinner at Amber 2.0 at Amber
3 months ago

First dinner at the revamped Amber, where they've taken out all dairy and refined sugar, and cut the carbs. Interesting to see this direction they have taken, and overall a pretty good meal.

4 months ago

returning to this old school Hangzhou restaurant after 11 years. I stayed away after receiving feedback that standards have gone downhill, and this dinner kinda confirmed it. It hasn't gotten to the point where the food is terrible, but it seems clear that the old chefs have been retiring and they haven't been able to get younger chefs to cook at the... More

Peter Chang added a new meal Dinner at The Chairman with Mr. OAD at The Chairman
7 months ago

Amazing dinner here when Mr. Plotnicki gets treated as the VIP that he is. The kitchen brought out the 26-year old preserved lemon for the razor clams, which they don't use for just anybody.

First time trying this Taipei outpost of Florilege of Tokyo fame, which uses many, many local Taiwanese ingredients and flavors. Delicious. Will be back.

Peter Chang added a new meal Dinner with Mr. OAD at Neighborhood
7 months ago

The boss pulls out all the stops when Mr. Plotnicki comes to town. An amazing feast that threatened to put me in the emergency room of a hospital from having too much food.

Peter Chang added a new meal Disastrous dinner with fake Asian flavors/ingredients at Claude Bosi at Bibendum
1 year ago

Many dishes were much too rich and heavy, and there was gratuitous use of "Asian" ingredients and flavors without the kitchen actually understanding them. Total FAIL.
