I was a little underwhelmed with my experience at Shanghai Street on Elizabeth (not to be confused with their sister restaurant). The dumplings were passable, although I wouldn't order the vegetable dumplings again as they were very bland. However, the noodles were not good and reminded me of overcooked Maggi 2 Minute Noodles. The atmosphere is also quite sterile, with overly bright lighting and minimal decor.

The Everleigh is a fantastic cocktail bar. Soft, warm mood lighting, wood panelling and leather furniture create the perfect atmosphere for delicious cocktails and quality conversation. The service is also unparalleled. The one cocktail I ordered that was not to my liking was quickly scooped up by our waitor with apologies and replaced with something new. There is sometimes a wait for a table, but it is worth it.
