I went to the Greyhound Cafe at the IFC with three of my friends. We made a reservation and were promptly seated at our table without having to wait. The menu has a lot of different options, and I would probably go again to give some other things a try. The waiter seemed very confused when I was ordering, and did not seem familiar with the menu.

I went to the Greyhound Cafe at the IFC with three of my friends. We made a reservation and were promptly seated at our table without having to wait. The menu has a lot of different options, and I would probably go again to give some other things a try. The waiter seemed very confused when I was ordering, and did not seem familiar with the menu. I ordered in English, but he repeated everything to me in Cantonese, even though I just told him what number I wanted. Throughout our meal, we were sitting near the kitchen door, and the waiters kept dropping and breaking things. Our food came very quickly, but the table next to us had very slow service, and kept being brought the wrong order. Towards the end of our meal, another waiter spilled water all over our table. Luckily I dodged the waterfall quickly enough, but what was disappointing was no one came to wipe up the mess, or mop the floor. Luckily, this restaurant was saved from a disastrous review because the food was much better than the service.

This was really delicious, although a little bit spicy, it gives you just enough of a kick.

These rolls were really fresh, and the sauce that goes with the leaf and roll was very good.

When all the ingredients are mixed together, it was tasty, but a little bit too oily for my taste.

This was presented very well and the herb sauce was great.

We also had a noodle dish called the Miss Saigon, but there was nothing special about that dish

A fantastic combination, and not too heavy. A must try.

This apple crumble had more crumble than apple, which I personally believe is the best part. Although some of the crumble did not actually crumble in your mouth, it was more like an overcooked cookie. However, I found this a refreshing take on a classic dessert.

Overall, I had a good evening chumming with my friends. The service leaves a lot to be desired, but I will come back to give some other dishes a whirl.
