They recently expanded Jasmine, Asian Cuisine & Sushi Bar (302.479.5618) in the Crown Plaza in Talleyville. It's right next to a Subway, but it's really in another universe. They serve Japanese and Chinese cuisine in a calm, Zen-like atmosphere... everything from Miso soup to Chilean Sea-Bass Moromiso and Pad Thai noodles with Shrimp.

After sour apple martinis, we ordered their Special Tornado rolls (lobster tempura, lettuce with 3 kinds of caviar, Japanese spicy mayo, eel sauce) and Spider rolls (soft shell crab in tempura style with lettuce, avacado, chive and sweet sauce) for appetizers. Both were delicate, flavorful and beautifully plated. For owr entrees, we had Baked Stuffed Shrimp with Crabmeat in Honey Wasabi Sauce with squash puree (fabulous) and a dish you can get in most Chinese restaurants... General Tso's Chicken. Jasmine prepares it in a Mandarin Sweet Orange Sauce. It was a whole different experience, light, crispy and served with peppers and green beans instead of broccoli. When he learned we were from TheBrandywine.com, Henry, our waiter, insisted that we sample their special Samba Roll (rice, salmon, jalapeno, mozzerella, mint leaf with spicy mayo). It too was wonderful, but too much of a good thing. We had to take some home with us which we didn't mind a bit. :-) 2009
