| - Normally this is one of our favorite buffets, but tonight's dinner left us somewhat disappointed. It wasn't super busy at all, and with Chinese New Year theme they had more than usual Asian Dishes. Our server, Britney, was excellent as were the desserts ( I love those mini chocolate mousse cones!). The entrees however missed several notes:
- Many of the dishes were way over seasoned this time: Korean Galbi, mushroom risotto, and cocktail shrimp.
- The roasted pork belly was cut into huge chunks, like a ball of pure fat. It's supposed to be a layer of meat, fat, and crispy skin, but here it was nearly all fat!
- Sushi options were limited, and the snapper nigiri had cold, hard rice.
There were a few bright spots: octopus salad was tender and had good acidity, kale salad and collard greens were good, and the lamb and prime rib were both juicy and flavorful.
We may need to take a break from Wicked Spoon to try out a few other places. They may have had an off night or like in casino gaming maybe we just picked the wrong dishes :(
