| - Came here for my AYCE birthday dinner after hearing about the promotion for crab legs. Unfortunately, it was only being offered during the weekend, which wasn't really made specific in their ad. Sighs. No worries, as I wasn't really a fan anyways. At 8pm, the restaurant was pretty empty on a Monday night. They use an iPad ordering system, which I am a fan of, because you can see what you've previously ordered and it saves paper!
Their sashimi was not that fresh at all, the salmon being way too slimy and unappealingly soft in texture. The octopus tasted fishy and the scallop sashimi was lukewarm. Their sushi was okay, the rice was quite gummy. The pre-made spicy salmon and tuna mix by the sushi bar in tubberware bins was very unappealing to look at, as there were plenty of them, so obviously the freshness raises a flag. Their hot food items were pretty good though, especially the Seafood Pad Thai, lamb skewers, chicken skewers and fried chicken wings. Their desserts however, were not great. The mango pudding was okay, but the mango tapioca was like drinking mango juice with 3 or 4 tapioca balls in them (yes I counted) , and the mango yogurt tasted funky. This is the first place to screw up mango yogurt, which is my favourite at AYCE restaurants. So disappointing! I know restaurants pre-freeze their ice cream all scooped up, however the ones here were rock solid and full of ice pieces. The waitresses don't speak much English or Cantonese either, and during our dinner they were all having their own conversations by the counter area, eating ice cream. It was a pretty hot day, and it felt the same inside. We were literally sweating halfway into our dinner. Not cool. I definitely would not come back, as there are other better AYCE places in my opinion.
