If you like fusion, then next time you are in LA, try either Asia de Cuba or Crustacean.
Both have great atmosphere (not as crammed in as Mr Chow. The one thing I do not like about Chow is that if you are sitting in that gigantic middle section, it is basically one long bench of people on both sides), great food, and interesting takes on pan-asian. Crustacean is more a vietnamese, while Asia de Cuba is, as the name implies, Cuban emphasis.
Asia de Cuba might be a little played out (there is also one in NYC) but worth the visit at least once.
Crustacean is always yummy.
