| - Add then smoosh. Add then smoosh. Add then smoosh.
I have seen this type of grilling in the mall before but never actually felt the urge to dine there. I came here with friends who walked me through the experience. First of all, it is a stand alone restaurant. When you enter the door you pay $9 for the bowl and $0.50 for a togo box for your leftovers. For the quality of food, I think $9 is over-priced. You are really paying a premium for the "experience" of watching someone sloosh around your food on a grill. It is the express version of benihana.
You walk up to a buffet line and the first thing you see is a box of wax paper. Those little squares they use when you get donuts. You grab a couple sheets and proceed to the assorted meats (chicken, beef, pork) and a white fish (cod??) which were all frozen. These items are usually used for chinese hot pots. The quality is mediocre. Next in line are assorted veggies, tofu, and then an array of sauces. You pick and choose. As you fill up the bowl, people are using those wax sheets to moosh down the food to maximize space. Add an item then smoosh. Repeat.
The meal comes with soda, soup, rice, and frozen yogurt machine. The best part of the meal was the service. They are continually replenishing the ingredients and ensuring a cleaning station. The cashier walked around to check on everyone's meal. She even offered someone a new bowl since they didn't care for their creation. That is service! So even though the food was eh, the service made up for it.
