Thanks for writing. That voice, of the veteran line cook, was something I looked for consistently during the days I was reporting the story. It's definitely a hole, and something I'd like to have done better if I had more time. Most of the people I talked to had been line cooks themselves bu…
everclear -- There is a mention of this in the review -- I called Wah Kee and asked if they use MSG in any of their dishes, and the server said they don't. Albert Ng also says they don't. But anecdotally and based on my own experiences there, I just don't 100 percent believe it.

Their bank is The Bank of New Glarus. And I don't know about what they've pledged.
The links are fixed! Thanks for the note.
And I can't imagine any news organization in 2014 wanting to pretend like it is the only source of information for anything, let alone restaurant reviews, which are fairly easy to find.
Thanks for the note! I did mention the Bloody Mary bar, although I didn't make it out on a Saturday morning and settled for a standard bloody on a weekday. Nice level of heat, basic garnish. Good stuff.
I absolutely need to try the meatloaf, since I love it but my husband doesn't. You …
Thanks!
I thought Julia's "sneak peek" feature was a nice first look at the restaurant, which opened while I was still on vacation. (Accepted standard for reviewing is to wait at least a month after opening, then visit at least twice anonymously. Isthmus follows this rule, I …
