Red Farm or Mission Chinese?

[LVI]

Trying to decide between the two tonight. Anybody have words of wisdom?

Mission Chinese takes some reservations via email. If you can snag one, go there.

While they both may be Chinese fusion, they're quite different.

IMO, Mission Chinese is better for groups because you can take advantage of the low pricing and order a lot of dishes -- it's a cost effective way to sample a huge swath of the menu.

Red Farm can be done family style, but it's probably better suited for couples.

Red Farm also has a much better bar and dessert (I'm actually not 100% sure that MP doesn't have dessert, but I don't see it on their website and I've never been asked if I wanted dessert when I was there).

I had a cold chawanmuchi type dish, they listed as dessert at Mission. They offered a few other desserts also.

How was it?

If you prefer spicy, Mission. If not, Red Farm.
