That is one place that I have never been!

Lesley, do you like it there or have you been?

Is it along the same strip as Moulin Fou?

I miss Pizza Pasta. frown

Hello Leona ,
We went there way back but was not impressed , that's why I asked the question about what they had.
When we go out to eat it's not just about being hungry, we always go to good food places.

Thanks Lesley...let me know if you decide to try it again. Would be interested in your opinion.

Unrelated, but I cannot wait to try Sale & Pepe! Missed it last visit.

I have always been a huge fan of Chinese food. We have gone to Winnie's a few times, since it is so convenient from our timeshare...but can say the food has always been fair to good at best. IT IS NOT the same type of chinese you get in most cities in the US. The portions were much smaller....but...the food was acceptable. Honestly, both my wife and myself agreed that the Chinese restaurant (name escapes me now) in Simpson Bay, down near Harry's newer restaurant was far superior to Winnie's.

I agree. I was not impressed. Perhaps coming from NYC with all of our various Chinatowns (yes there are several) I'm a bit spoiled.

I think you are referring to White Swan? Never tried it myself.

Have to laugh. You know where all the Chinese workers that are building Sonesta Maho get their meals?
