This restaurant- so chic, so tony, so full of those who fancy themselves ethical and green- dropping plenty of money here- May Dragon serves SHARK FIN SOUP! Shark fins sell for like $1000 a pound, so everybody and their uncle is out there catching sharks and cutting their fins off and sending them to Chinese restaurants like May Dragon. Shark populations are spiraling downward catastrophically worldwide for this reason alone. The high prices commanded by shark fins are due to their demand for shark fin soup- period- that's it- its all because of shark fin soup. And May Dragon serves it! If you're puzzled about this, check out the excellent documentary, ""Sharkwater"". Boycott May Dragon until they take shark fin soup off their menu forever!
Pros: Rake in lots of money
Cons: Help destroy lots of sharks
