In a third part of what almost feels like a three-part series (see my previous two stories on the BFIC site highlighting Yee Chino and Gold Chino), my visit to the Delicate Gold Chino Restaurant was admittedly a walk down memory lane, as I was welcomed by the people whom I've come to know over the past few weeks in my previous visits to their sister restaurants. It's hard to remove yourself from the mindset of having tasted and experienced the foods from the other sites, in a display of purely professional objectivity...
A trip to Hangzhou's legendary West Lake is often deemed mandatory for all visitors... but something worth remembering is that not all visitors to the area are tourists.
This restaurant is so beautifully decorated that it didn't matter if the food tasted good or not.
The owner of this restaurants spent millions on the decorations based on feng shui elements.
