Other Potential Candidates

Millbrae

Zen Peninsula


Hong Kong Flower Lounge
- Part of the ever expanding Mayflower Restaurant franchise.

South San Francisco

Grand Palace Seafood Restaurant

San Francisco

Yet Wah Restaurant

Emeryville

Hong Kong East Ocean Restaurant

Where we will be venturing next: Oakland - Restaurant Peony

What we look for: Space, Lighting, Seating Arrangement (including an unobstructed view of the head table), Sound System, Projector Screen, Cost, Accessibility, Parking (Lot or Street). Food? (Well after a while the menu is pretty much the same 10-12 dishes. It is after all, a Chinese-Vietnamese wedding banquet. Come on now!)

I already know what you are wondering why we haven't considered some other Peninsula - East Bay standards....well, the seating layout is pretty important. And some of these restaurants, while fancy in its own right, have given up having a nice layout for the purpose of cramming more folk into the space.
