Do you need an excuse to buy a cupcake?

If you’ve so far failed to keep your New Year’s resolutions and you want a do-over, or you just want to keep your New Year’s celebration going, Bo Lings on the Plaza (4701 Jefferson) is celebrating the Chinese New Year through Sunday, February 24, with a special dinner menu available for parties of six or larger.

The three-course meal is a mix of sweet, spicy and savory, including hot chili oil chicken with cold sesame noodles, sizzling beef tenderloin, tea smoked duck served with buns, Cantonese-style whole boneless flounder, and cupcakes and almond cookies. Dinner (which includes tea, soda or coffee) costs $35 per person, plus tax and gratuity.
