We truly had a meal fit for Kings tonight, and we were treated like Royalty.  From the moment that you see Asian Jewels Seafood Restaurant, you feel like you're walking into some place special.  The place was immaculate.  The service is meticulous.  The waiters are attentive.  And, the bathrooms were the best I have ever seen (though I can only speak of the Men's room).

And wait to you read about the entrees we had!

Chinese Restaurant Reviews – 2013 2013 was quite the year!!  The Chinese Quest was formed in late February.  Five Jewish guys got together over, what else, Chinese food.  And they argued (that’s how Jews talk) where the best Chinese restaurant was on Long Island.  And you know something?  They couldn’t agree! So, they made a pact.  And formed a Quest. ...
