We had dinner here last night for less than $30, and we ate well. It’s a kind of swanky place, with great atmosphere. If Anthropologie were a restaurant in Asia, this would be it. (Oh, and they do have a really nice boutique attached, too. A little pricey, but some cool stuff.) There are actually two restaurants on the lot: Ginger Cafe and The House. The latter is a little fancier–both in menu and atmosphere. Both have great food. In the evenings, apparently both places allow you to order from both menus as well as from a tapas menu.

We did the tapas option last night and were very pleased. We ordered my favorite Pomelo Salad (Yam Som-O), sesame-crusted seared Phuket tuna, a mini steak, fried goat cheese balls with honey (yum!), chorizo and potatoes, bread basket with roasted red pepper and eggplant spreads…I think that was all. Everything was very tasty. We’re going back for our anniversary dinner on Friday, when we will sample the fancier, pricier House menu.
