        <content>Hi everyone.  I don't know if this question has been asked before, but does anyone know a good chinese restaurant or caterer in the new york area that does outside catering?  My fiancee is Chinese and wants to have a Chinese wedding banquet, but we are not really into the decorations with Chinese restaurants.  We are looking to have the reception at a reception hall that is affordable because our budget is pretty small.  Anyone who can help us or has had experience with Chinese restaurants catering outside would be very helpful.  Thanks.</content>

      <content>The New York area is pretty general, how about a more specific location or area?</content>

      <content>Specifically Manhattan.  I have visited S. Dynasty and dined there.  It is a good choice for a chinese wedding banquet.  However, if I can pull it off, I would like to have my wedding at a loft space and serve Chinese food.  Let me know if anyone has any caterers in mind? Thanks.</content>

      <content>I have the same question too!  what did you end up going with?  my fiance and i are both chinese american and food is the biggest priority for us in planning our wedding.  we would love to find a caterer that could do a custom banquet (think traditional dishes with a modern twist...i.e. shark fin soup shots).  location has not been nailed down yet, but thinking NJ or philly area...ny also an option.  any leads?  thanks :)   </content>
