Wai La Dee was great long ago, then something went wrong. The dishes were clearly prepared by staff without the chef's supervision. Then they got their A game back.
But I went last month and not only was the food pedestrian (again) the mainland Chinese have put this place on their radar and 70 percent of diners are loudly shouting at each other and otherwise showing no respect for other diners. There is solo piano music in the background on the PA system but you can't hear it anymore over the Mandarin din. A real pity on both fronts.
When I see this (Le Crystal) -- 15g of gelato? -- I have to sneer. Unless, of course it's free....
Are there any restaurants with ethnic food (not French) you would recommend? African/Indian/Middle Eastern?
