There are like ten tables from which you can see the races.

Christine Lee's is pretty good American Chinese--it has been around for ages, but just moved to GP in the past couple of years. When GP is not running it is only open for dinner BUT they open for lunch for the triple crown races and BC (or they have in the past couple of years). THEN is a great place to hang out.

Oh sure, as a simulcasting spot you can tell it'd be outstanding. It's a disappointment for the live product.

If it was open generally during the GP simulcast period, I'd never go to CRC.

I'd weigh 600 pounds, too.

So far it sounds like the Chinese restaurant will definitely make it on my "to- check-out" list. Thanks guys.

It is good, but again it is an American Chinese. If you are used to truly authentic Chinese that you might find in most major cities on the West Coast, or in NYC or Toronto, it may be something different than that.

I ordered the Lobster Cantonese and enjoyed it thoroughly. Of course, I'm the type that has what is described as a "hearty appetite."

If you are staying in Ft. Lauderdale, Bistro Mezzaluna is a great spot! I hope you make a hit because you need your wallet. Can drink well drinks 2 for 1 during the week at happy hour, that can soften the tab. Good luck!
