Regarding food, if you are into authentic Hangzhou food, you won't be disappointed. I talked to the waiters, and I do believe that they have their ingredients flown in fresh from the point of origin. Honestly, not a lot of restaurants care to do that.
You MUST try the smoked yellow croaker fish which gives you another dimension of smell and taste. However, for pete's sake, do leave some for me, please? This type of fish is so difficult to find, and I don't want you to eat it to extinction.
The beggar's chicken is so good. But I think it will probably takes at least a party of six to have a decent go. Mind you, you need to call in advance to get your share. If you can't do that, hopefully someone else would have ordered, and when they crack open the mud-casing, you will be so sorry that you haven't ordered in advance. Yes, the aroma is that good.
Mind you, their starters and desserts aren't too spectacular, and I would say quite mediocre. But in these days of high overheads and serious competition, having just a couple of signature dishes really deserves one's respect.
Cheers.
