| - I usually patron the other similar establishment, however some family that was in town wanted to try Genghis. It was good, but it could have been better. It is a bit deceiving as the bowls they give you to fill are rather small...however, if you are a master at the act of balancing...you can totally get your money's worth!
My only qualm is that the meats and poultry pieces are huge. I have frequented other establishments like this where the meats are very thinly sliced which makes it much easier to pack in that bowl! There are so many choices...steak, seasoned steak, calamari (yummy!) chicken, turkey, shrimp etc. Veggies and other toppings galore.
I do prefer it when they mix the sauce for me, because I am not always familiar with the level of sweetness, tartness, sourness, spiciness, or whatever-ness that each sauce has. So this time it was just a free for all...I did end up with a pretty spicy (just my liking) sauce on my dish. I chose to get steamed rice and rice noodles and it was delicious! Served with a refreshing glass of Watermelon flavored iced tea (I only got one glass because they somehow ran out of watermelon syrup after making mine!) too bad cuz that stuff was da' bomb diggity!
We were seated by the window and underneath what I can only describe is an air conditioner that was on steroids and crack! Yes, we live in Phoenix...yes it's hot here...but man oh man this thing was like sitting underneath an arctic storm in Antarctica! We had two young girls with us who were shivering...even in all of their pre-Justin Bieber concert attire! Fortunately, our server was very nice and when we asked if we could have the air Freezer turned off, she quickly obliged! If that thing had been on when our food arrived, I guarantee it would have gone to steamy to frozen in about 2.3 seconds!
I'll try GG again...I might even try one of their pre-printed recipe cards that are located right before the "kitchen"!
Hiiii-ya! (my feeble attempt at being Genghis like)
