I'd suggest Central. They don't have a pre-theater menu per se, but they do begin dinner service at 5:30 and they're 2 blocks from the National Theatre. We did a pre-theater dinner there this past Saturday and it was perfect. Just let your server know that you need to be out by a certain time.

I just won a gift certificate to Mandalay. I've never been, so I'm seeking your advice. After reading through the thread, I get that the ginger salad (Gyinn Thoke) is a must, as well as the cream of wheat dessert (ShweJi), which was also recommended to me by a friend. I'd really appreciate your suggestions for dishes that come between salad and dessert. If it helps to know this, we do eat meat and we like spicy food. Thanks for your suggestions!

I know it's only been open a very short time, but was just wondering if anyone has been to Volt? If so, what was your experience? Thanks!
