Tina Louise Description:
Tina Louise, the actress who played Ginger Grant on Gilligan's Island, is not the proprietor of Tina Louise. Tina and Louise are two Shanghai-born sisters who have created a warm, welcoming restaurant with an exotic interior of brick and ocher and a glowing pressed-copper ceiling. Louise works the front of the house and Tina does the cooking which dips into all kinds of Chinese cuisine. Each entrée plate is decorated with a sculpted carrot in some whimsical form. Part of the fun of eating here is debating exactly what that form is. Among the most popular dishes are wontons in spicy sauce. These soft, wrinkled packets are delectable in a peanut-y hot sauce. Also good: the meaty skewers of chicken teriyaki presented with a dipping sauce that is sweet and full of scallions. The chef's special of crispy coated jumbo shrimp and scallops is truly crispy with large and juicy scallops.
