The relaxed atmosphere, thumping beat and tapas-style menu provide a casual alternative to the mother ship next door. Susur Lee’s signature style—an elegant fusion of Asian and European ingredients and techniques—is, however, still the primary allure. A helpful server recommends Singaporean slaw, a 19-ingredient masterpiece featuring julienne carrot, crispy vermicelli, daikon and fried taro matchsticks with crunchy peanuts. Thick, well-salted lamb chops harmonize with pineapple, mint and banana fritters, though a plate of limp fried tofu is upstaged by accompanying spicy-sweet red pepper and mushroom compote. Perfectly cooked B.C. scallops crown confited lemon purée; the bacon wrapping the bivalves could stand more crisping. Warm chocolate and walnut tart with featherlight mousse provides a graceful finish. Affordable wines by the glass and bottle. Tapas $6–$17.
