2 good meals there so far - one with my in-laws; one with Dan’s bank’s Happy Chinese New Year party.
Ocean Jewel Restaurant offers top qualify, even rare to find food materials; you can taste in every bit that the food is really fresh.

Have you visited TaiPan Bakery in Chinatown?
It’s a mad place anytime of the day. You do get run over from time to time :P The variety of breads taste the closest to home (Taipei, Taiwan) as I remembered. Anything from here always tastes fresh ~ Dan loves the traditional flaky egg custards; I love the egg custards in Portugese style, and many of the breads.
Lately, I do find more and more non-Asian faces shopping here. SO good that TaiPan Bakery has been discovered!
