"The newest restaurant on ultra-popular Las Olas, Wild East is hip but warm. Sassy like its saketinis; soothing as a glass of green tea.

The bistro is elegantly perched above the Himmarshee canal (the only other restaurant on the water is Stork's Bakery across the street) and it's easily one of the most peaceful, romantic spots in the area. There are two levels of al fresco seating so there's plenty of room for 40 diners; the narrow top patio curves around the restaurant, the lower level is at the water's edge. It's a fun setting by day; at night, it's magic. Candlelight flickers while you watch the gondolas (the boulevard's latest attraction) glide by under the moonlight.

Inside, it's buzzing. The main dining room is lined with stalks of faux green bamboo, which allow a peek into a gleaming, open kitchen. The decor incorporates elements of contemporary industrial design with exposed ceilings, huge trendy lights shaped like blocks and stylish seating for 100; there's a smaller room in the back and a private table which can be curtained off

Prices are moderate, especially for Las Olas, but the menu is so vast you can easily splurge. Proprietor and Hong Kong native Peter Wong, who has owned Jasmine in Boca Raton for 15 years, says that about 80 percent of the nearly 150 items offered are Chinese with forays into Korea, Malaysia, Thailand and Japanese cuisine. It's easy to graze on appetizers labeled ''Good Beginning,'' soups and salads and a slew of noodle and rice dishes, aside from pages of entrees.
