Not sure what the Soluxe business was about but it seemed like it was bought to be a dedicated restaurant for CNOOC (interesting tie-in to the Nexen discussion above) and mainland Chinese interests which took over from the primarily Cantonese patronage it had before as a public restaurant.

Oh yeah, now I remember. We ate there once when we lived at Five Harvest, it seemed very uninviting when it was still New Harbour, just a totally different vibe than the other restaurants in Chinatown.
