Whether you are looking for traditional Chinese cuisine, or want a little twist, you’ll find it at Mr Chow. The Vegas incarnation of the famous chain of restaurants (formed by Michael Chow beginning in the ’60s), incorporates modern sensibilities in décor and menu. The dining area features an enormous chandelier that acts as an art installation, periodically turning the piece into a light show (you really need to see this).
The menu plays with traditional dishes and more modern takes on those, with sections such as Hors D’Oeuvres, From the Sky, From the Land and From the Sea, and the playful Pasta section, where you’ll find handmade Beijing noodles, billed as being introduced to the West by Mr Chow in 1968, plus pot stickers, Jade water dumplings and signature squid ink rice noodles.
Best bets on the rest of the menu include Gamblers Duck with steamed pancakes and plum sauce; dressed Dungeness crab in a fluffy bed of egg whites; crispy beef; drunken fish and green prawns. For the whole experience, get a prix fixe Beijing Duck dinner, which is roasted to order.
