For the dinner portion of my Bachelorette party, we headed over to Lucky Cheng’s, a restaurant that features drag queen waitresses and a raunchy show.

I would not recommend going there at all.

I’ve actually been there before for dinner and a show back in February 2004 for my birthday. Back then, the show was entertaining, the drag queens were very impressive (those legs!), and the food was actually pretty good! My girls decided to take me back to Lucky Cheng’s for my Bachelorette party because I enjoyed myself so much the first time…

Unfortunately, the quality of the food and entertainment has gone way downhill*. Instead of offering tasty a la carte dishes like before, they now have only standard pre-fixe menus. My friends and I weren’t there for the food, so we didn’t arrive with high expectations. But the food was so terribly subpar that it ranks as one of my worst food experiences ever.

The drag queens weren’t nearly as impressive as they were about 3 years ago. I remember the waitresses last time were totally workin’ it! This time, they were just working…

There were, however, 2 drag queens that were offering some pretty memorable lapdances- and by “memorable” I mean “deeply disturbing.” Now, I am far from prude… but some of their gimmicks were just too much for me. It’s one thing for the lapdancer to gyrate his/her crotch into the lapdancee’s face.. but it crosses the line for me when the lapdancer furiously rubs the dancee’s crotch, jiggles the dancee’s breasts, and pinches the dancee’s nipples. No thanks!

Overall, our experience at Lucky Cheng’s can be summed up in two words: BAD TASTE.

(* I suspect that the downfall has a lot to do with how popular and touristy the place has become. It can get away with a lot and still pull in the customers based on buzz alone.)
