Review by HUMBERTHUMBERT2, February, 2008
Always easy and a pleasure to book with Crystal. She's the best, just call. I keep trying to put together the voluptuous Thai Dynamic Duo, Champagne and Rosemary (sounds like a romantic novel), but have now realized that Crystal splits them up and scheduling them together is virtually... well, really difficult. I won't say IMPOSSIBLE, but I've tried a dozen times... Anyway, Crystal always manages to talk me into a duo of whomever is working at the time (I confess, crackhead that I am, that the convincing is minimal), and in this case I met Blue for the first time, having known Champagne for awhile. Short version: although Crystal always aims to please and the girls are ALWAYS good, combo plates are not her specialty. I would say, generally, unless you manage to include the always terrific Maggie Chan as one element, or unless you manage somehow to combine the Thais, go somewhere else for combinations. The chemistry can be off... I recommend Jazmin, Mary, and Jala if you're in the SGV... or, of course in a higher price range, the Westside Wonders...
