I sometimes wonder why I seem to be the only one who is not overwhelmed by these new places.\r
Susanna Foo is not bad, but it;'s all about making yourself feeling chic and important, - as are nearly all these new places. Dark setting, amber lighting, highly textural walls are all veryt lovely - but you can't eat them. The food here is good but certainly not exceptional. It's also expensive when you compare it to what you can find in the better places in Chinatown.\r
But this place has liquor - a major necessity on the Main Line. It also appeals to the newer clientele now permeating the Main Line area. These folks need to feel that they have made it and that they have chosen not only the ""Best"" home,. the ""best"" school and the ""best"" car but that they eat at the ""best"" restaurants.\r
One thing that Foo has over Nectar is that your eardrums aren't broken while you're trying to eat.
Pros: Nice food, lovely setting
Cons: It's another wanna be restaurant for people who need to feel important and know nothing about food.
