  • OK, so I haven't been to a buffet in a long time. When I reflect on the idea of buffets -- Sweet Tomatoes excluded, since lots of salad means lots of Good-For-You-ness, right?... -- I feel like I used up my lifetime maximum instances of buffet-eating in college, where the dining halls were all-you-can eat. Anyway, this place just opened and is within walking distance of where I live, so my neighbors and I decided to check it out. Overall I wasn't very impressed with the food, even in comparison to other Chinese food buffets I've been to in the past. In addition to a standard selection of Chinese buffet items (beef with broccoli, fried rice, sweet and sour chicken) they have sushi, pizza (for kids, I'm assuming), and a hibachi grill section where you can pick vegetables and meats and they'll stir fry it for you (included in the buffet price). The hibachi stir fry I made up was OK, but the sauce added to it was too salty for me. The sushi was bland and what you would expect from a grocery store. They only had regular high-sodium soy sauce, as far as I could tell. (I tried asking one of the wait staff for low-sodium soy sauce and there was a language barrier; he brought back another staff member to our table, who also didn't understand what I was asking.) The egg roll I tried was really salty (even without sauce) and nothing to write home about. Usually sweet & sour sauce can make even mediocre egg rolls worth eating, but the S&S sauce on the buffet was a downright-scary Kool-Aid-red color. However, the fresh pineapple and melon was a nice touch, as were the 8 different ice cream flavors on the far end of the line. I will say it was pretty cheap at $10 per adult, so if you're looking for a lot of food on a budget, it might be a decent option for you. Personally though, I just think I am past the days of eating foods with scary salt levels, artificial colors, etc., so I won't plan on going back (though if I had to return for some reason, there are enough edible options so that I wouldn't starve).
