I don't think I agree that they're all good. This seems about as good a place as any to say this: Sully and I went to the Empire Garden in Boston. The site is impressive; it's an old movie theater. We got the two worst drinks you could imagine. I'd classify mine as the worst drink I've ever had anywhere. I was afraid to drink it so I didn't. It tasted like Janitor in a Drum. Sully drank his and was sick all night (we didn't eat there).

I went to Empire Garden last week, for dim sum. The dim sum was fine. I was wondering about the decor because it was indeed impressive and I was very curious what the building had been used for previously - a movie theatre makes sense. I ordered a scorpion bowl there and it tasted basically like pineapple juice and nothing else. I don't think it had much, if any, rum in it at all.

I'll second the Mayor on the drinks at Chef Chang's though. The one I had there was great.
