hmm.. I think Jumbo Seafood in Chinatown is way better for authentic chinese. Get the bird's nest made of taro with veggies and meat of your choice in it. oh, there's this papaya and scallop dish that was delish too (i know, no seafood..but this was really good!). I had about 9 dishes when I was there and everythind was excellent!
