| - I haven't been to Spoonful in a while but my most recent visit this past weekend will ensure that I won't return. I used to come to Spoonful more often because of their wide variety of foods and seafoods, especially the oysters and scallops.
The good thing about Spoonful is that there is a lot of selection. Customize your own pasta or pad thai, sushi station, salad bar, seafood station (oysters, cocktail shrimp, crab legs, mussels), a whole dessert section and more.
However, I feel that the food quality has gone down.
Taro Coconut Sago - watered down
Lobster Bisque - surprisingly, this tasted good/proper. I added in bacon bits from the salad bar.
Seaweed Salad - tasted very off
Japchae - was pretty tasteless
Oysters - sandy
Octopus (at the seafood station) - very stiff
Cocktail Shrimp and the Imitation Crabmeat Salad - both were a little too hard and tasted like maybe wasn't completely defrosted
Custom Pad Thai - this was very, very sweet
Scallops (they only had cooked ones that night) - great, buttery taste
The service was good. Our plates were cleared fairly quickly and our server informed us of their current promotion: post a picture on instagram, wechat or fb for 10% off (if you pay in cash).
