Making our way to the roof
Big Bambu'
The stunning 'Khubilai Khan' in the China exhibit
The lobby of the Met
After a great time at the Met on Sunday seeing the outdoor installation of "
Big Bambu' we headed downtown to Chinatown for dinner. I had a list of possible restaurants I did some research on but nothing definitive... the foodie in me was not confident about anything on my list as I even tried to pin one place down (using my Droid) on the cab ride down to Chinatown. We wanted Szechuan, but my sister-in-law was pushing for an old-fashioned Cantonese reminiscent of our childhood... we landed at
Wo Hop on Mott Street, a solid choice with classic dishes like lobster cantonese, sweet and sour pork, egg foo young, etc... maybe not as good as I remembered. While they waited on line, I walked over to
Joe's Shanghai, a better choice for a gourmet treat, but they were ready to seat us so my family called me back to Wo Hop...
Ooooo - good looking group and food. You take good pix - makes me want to BE there!
