Chef Anita Lo wanted a soft opening for her new place. Was she kidding?
Before she could say "bok choy," her intimate, off-white nook was
abuzz with doe-eyed couples of every stripe and persuasion, seduced
by the intriguing wines from only women vintners and Lo's quetly
transporting cuisine. Shanghainese soup dumplings are reinterpreted
with seared foies gras; amazing roast chicken comes with a luscious
stuffing of pig's feet. "This is my third dinner here in a
week", confesses my neighbor.
