I don't know why I did it, I just somehow couldn't resist.
I've been to Hi-Ball many times for their lunch buffet. Which at just under $10 is quick, fast and relatively tasty. But what I didn't realize was the the buffet was only a lunch time thing and at night you had to order off the menu, which to me always means "things we have left over from the buffett."
Now I'm not saying that that is what it was, but the ginger beef, rice and spring rolls didn't exactly taste like it was made fresh. It really was the equivalent of McDonalds but with Chinese food. Mmmmm Sesame Chicken.
And let's be honest, I knew we were in trouble when.....how do I say this.....the clientele wasn't exactly the clientele that you would hope to find in an asian-themed restaurant. What's that saying: locals know.
All that being said, the food and the service was very fast. They were very friendly and certainly did the best with what they had to work with!
But like an intervention, this trip to Hi-Ball reminded me I need to find somewhere else!
Bonus tip: They don't accept debit so make sure you pick up some cash, use your CC or run like hell.
