"0"^^ . "3"^^ . "This place is really overrated, as many places are on yelp. Either that, or people have never had any better tasting buffet. Honestly, I can say that most of the good reviews here were heavily influenced by the friendly waiters. I know I have only written a few reviews compared to others with hundreds...but......what I say is true. \nThe place seemed very hesitate to give out lots of food. Every time we order salmon, only 4 pieces (1 person's portion came out). In other buffets, they would either ask how many portions/ give at least 2 portions for a group of people. Although the place had people coming in and out a lot, it was not filled up; only half of the tables were occupied. If anything's more trustworthy than yelp, it's the actual reality seen; the amount of people is a good indicator of how good the restaurant is. For example, despite the lower rating for Ten Ichi, you can see a crowd of people always lining up and waiting to eat there. It's a Japanese buffet, but their Korean food tastes better than Chingu.\nChingu has a very limited amount of food selections, and I mean VERY limited. There are 3 choices of meat, 4 choices of soup, 3 choices of other plates. The galbi is hard and doesn't taste appealing. The soups are all terrible. Don't listen to what anyone here says; if you tasted good Korean soup (available in Toronto), or if you never tasted Korean soup before, either way, you would still be disappointed. The kimchi soup is very sour, the gamjatang tasted bad.....and the tofu soup.....if you want tofu soup to compare, go to Buk Chang Dong....\nThe part of the eating experience that surprised me the most was the ice cream. There were limited flavours of green tea, vanilla, chocolate, mango.... Anyways, the ice cream had no flavour and seemed to be filled with water as a large proportion. But....LIMITED 2 SCOOPS A PERSON??!?!? Do they think they're serving Haagen Diaz or some premium ice cream? Two scoops for crappy ice cream?\nI DO, however, agree with 1 thing that the yelpers say: It is indeed a much better choice than Chako....nevertheless......keep in mind that this is comparing \"one eye in a blind world\" -- bad vs. worst. \nI find many of the reviews on yelp to be unreliable. The best indicator is to see how many people are willing to go to the restaurant in real life. I've seen this with my own eyes. However, I assure you that you can go see with your own eyes that what I say it in fact true. If you want a better experience, just go to Ten Ichi; for $32, you can eat so much more with much better taste, better desserts...better everything. $22 at Chingu is somewhat of a waste, though not completely. I'd prefer eating at home."^^ . "2014-04-06T00:00:00"^^ . "0"^^ . "2"^^ . . . .
