Kitchen Melody review: Great Neck Chinese serves regional cuisine in an elegant setting

Kitchen Melody, which was opened late last year in Great Neck by chef James Yang and his wife, Lisa Liu, is a setting in which to enjoy a regional cuisine that is about much more than palate-searing spice. On Monday, April 15, Liu prepared one of her specialties, chicken with basil and soy sauce, a staple in many Chinese households, but she prepares it just a little differently.
