Description: The elegance of this gourmet Chinese restaurant is surpassed only by the skill of its Hong Kong chefs and the freshness of ingredients used in preparing the finest authentic Chinese delicacies.

Imported tea is poured constantly, and each dish is presented and served on elegant silver and china by attentive service staff. Also featured are The Emperor and The Empress -- extensive, multi-course, fixed-price menu alternatives, available for two persons or more. Two fixed-price dinners, "Golden Jade" and "Silver Pearl," celebrate this Chinese Year of the Snake. The Golden Jade dinner includes Empress Court spring rolls or Cantonese-style wonton soup; a choice of Mongolian beef, Kung Pao chicken or sweet-and-sour pork; choice of vegetable fried rice or steamed rice, and a choice of ginger, mango or green tea ice cream, priced at $29.99 per person, plus tax.
