Myers + Chang is not a Chinese restaurant, but that's OK

Some people might complain you can get more "authentic" food for less money in Chinatown.
I would say they're missing the point. Even though I love the divey food experience, sometimes you just want the rough edges sanded off your Saturday dim sum brunch, you know? I appreciate atmosphere. Sometimes you have to fight for your food in a Chinese restaurant and that makes me cry a little inside. It reminds me too much of being in China.
Plus, those places don’t make things like fried egg banh mi!

Does anyone for one second think
that someday people will say.."hey, remember Myers and Chang? what a great place, wish it was still here" the way people say that about..the English Room, the Empire Deli, Joe and Nemos, Jackie's Sub's? I think not.
god
M+C never claims to be "authentic" - whatever that means these days. What it does well is serve creative, tasty food in a well-designed, fun, engaging atmosphere. There aren't enough restaurants in Boston that try to do that.
