This little place is reputedly one of the best Chinese places in the city. You don't order per se, you just tell them how much you are going to spend per person ($35-150) and they start bringing you food.

Right now we've made it so that you can't do a wholesale copy of lists. Mainly to avoid a bunch of duplicate pages for search engine reasons. You can of course add the list items one by one.
Kelly, I'll put Jai Yun and and Clemeitne on. Great call.

Jai Yun *SUCKS*, avoid at ALL cost! my review at Yelp (http://www.yelp.com/biz/FzyA_Tafu38lUPWFFB4IXw):
This is *not* *real* Chinese food, only very overpriced mediocre Americanized Chinese food. Do not fall for the hype, this place sucks! the 7 of us went with the $45 per person meal, tax and tips not included, BIGGEST RIPOFF EVER!! The abalone and egg was probably the most expensive dish, but let me tell you, they used fresh abalone, not the dried stuff that costs a shit load of money. Fresh or canned abalone are cheap, you can get them at other places in C-town for cheap. In Hong Kong we don't even eat that stuff, only dried ones that have to be slow-cooked for hours or days before they serve it, those are the shit. They have them at Koi Palace, expensive but seriously good stuff. The other dishes were mostly Chinese vegetarian stuff, seriously, I expected at least a fish or lobster, or crabs or whatever for the price... you can eat the same chinese veggie dishes at buddist temples in hong kong or china for cheap, and by that i mean less than $10 per person...
For around the same price or less, you could get some real food like live seafood at R&G or Great Eastern, a lot more food for the money IMO.
Go to Jai Yun only if you enjoy getting RAPED in the ass...

Noah, who's has the best wine list in Springfield? We have a friend from Phoenix who is into wine's and visits occasionally, we've never known where to take him. Of course he loves the Brown Derby Wine Center. Says it's better than any he has seen, other than CA.
