"Bring a buddy with you to the West Village location of this international chain. They do two-person combos for around $50, which come with an appetizer, two entrees, a dessert, and two beverages. It’s a good deal for some decent renditions of HK food—we especially like the fried shumai, slippery eggs with Malaysian curry chicken, and french toast covered in ovaltine powder. The place sort of looks like a mini cafeteria, with an open kitchen and iPad stands, but you can still have a cute date or meet-up here, with adorable bear-shaped ice cubes and Pepto-pink strawberry toast.
