I would have given this a higher experience rating, but the waiter was a little lacking. EXCELLENT desserts. The creme brulee was done to service. The whipped cream was not overwhipped and it was *real* cream. The pastry chef makes her own sorbets every day, and they are fresh, crisp, and wonderful. Nice presentations. Good portion sizes. The rest of the food was good (I had the Mee Gha Ti and some really nice sake too), but I am always searching for a place with good desserts, and as a pastry chef myself, I am very picky. I was impressed.
