<p>The second outpost of this famed Beijing eatery—owned by artist and Renaissance man Michael Chow—actually lives up to the hype. Chow's menu titillates the palate rather than fills the stomach; small plates like diced squab in crisp lettuce cups, pork-and-crab dumplings, and house-made noodles served with minced chicken and red bean sauce are delicious. If you're feeling adventurous, do as the attentive, suit-wearing servers recommend and go for the special prix fixe menu.</p> <p><strong>Tip:</strong> Don't leave the neighborhood once you settle your bill. At lunchtime the shop-lined streets of Beverly Hills are full of stiletto-wearing shoppers, agents, and the paparazzi; at night, a stroll around quiet Rodeo Drive is a treat.</p>
