“Mainland-- Closed”

Occasion:	Cuisine:	Area:	Cost:	Rating:
Night Out	Asian	Midtown	Moderate	Great

cused on the fierce and fiery sauce—ladling it onto my plate and using it as an alternate condiment for my Peking duck tacos, happy as a clam.

We didn’t even make a dent in Young’s menu, but if the rest of what he is making follows the line of what we had that night it will be quite impressive (and fun to eat). Since the menu is quite large though, Mainland lends itself to festive dining among at least four if not many more friends. If you are not up for a big meal and the madness of a large group, grab a friend and retire to the restaurant’s great lounge, an easy place to relax and catch up with a friend (or a date) and have a few cocktails (Julia Martin did the list and it’s great), and snack on salads, dumplings, ducks, whatever you like. Snuggled into one of the deep couches, you can pretend you are at home having take out. But someone else gets to clean up.

Mainland is located at 1081 Third Avenue, at 64th Street, 212-888-6333.
