Fairly inexpensive, great for a quick bite. Food is made fresh daily, great for fast comfort food.

Lucky Buffet - Still more food

I normally avoid buffets, but Lucky Buffet has a great selection and the food is fresh. There is a…read moregood variety of vegetables in several dishes. They also provide fast, efficient service.

What a pleasant surprise this was! I was coming to buy Girl Scout Cookies as they were being sold…read morethere yesterday (Friday) and I am a sucker for Girl Scouts as my nana spoiled me growing up and bought me boxes of Thin Mints whenever Girl Scout Cookie Season came around. Luckily, i was able to snag the last box of Thin Mints and a box of Trefoils, so I am not complaining. Since I was already at the location, I thought why not try the restaurant. I did not know what to expect and honestly I did not factor in that it was a buffet. Coming from Miami originally (though currently living in Saint Albans), I was lucky (no pun intended ^_^) to have had some really great buffets to experience in Miami, FL (ie. Kyojin in South Miami, Canton in Coral Gables, POC in Coral Gables) but I was craving Chinese food as I had not had any in so long. Lucky Buffet did not disappoint. They had sit down dining service as well as to go service. I am not sure if they deliver. If they did that would be amazing! But it was pretty busy which is always a good sign for a restaurant because it means they are doing good business and there is a demand for it. I ended up eating with my eyes and then my stomach because i filled 2 to go containers with a variety/assortment of foods like General Tso's chicken (my favorite), chicken & broccoli, crunchy and flavorful snap peas, crispy wonton noodles, very breaded/fluffy battered chicken tenders, and some vegetable fried rice that i doused in the General Tsao's sauce). I also got some of these Buttered scalloped potatoes which O-M-G were so darn good. They also had sliced onion mixed into the batch and no complaints there. It came out to a total of $38. There was a sign that said it was like $7.95 for pound of food and I figured I would splurge since I am not sure when I would be back there. I walk everywhere and in the cold, frigid temps, it's a bit cumbersome (and dangerous) to walk with food like that over icy sidewalks and slushy-muddy snow. I can't speak to what dining in would be like, but it seemed pretty decent. There was a steady flow of customers coming in and out which is always good to see. I also liked how they had fortune cookies sitting on display in the middle of the place for guests to take. I took about six lol I can't resist a good old fashioned fortune cookie:) If I ever happen to be walking by again, I would consider it again, but it is a lot of food. So you have to go on an empty stomach and also try not to over indulge or else you will have tummy issues. Chinese food is notorious for having MSG, but I am not sure if they use that there. I will say that they had a pretty decent dessert bar and ice cream selection. The people of Saint Albans are "lucky" to have this restaurant in their midsts. Also parking is pretty ample for those that have vehicles and the restaurant itself seemed pretty clean and well organized. If buffet items got low, they immediately would replenish them. The food was hot and ready to go. A plus was the little keychains being sold at the front at the counter. I had to get a Stitch one because I love the Stitch character. He's so cute ^_^ They also had a Spiderman one and Hello Kitty one so any fans of those characters would be pleasantly surprises and amused to see them being sold there once you check out and pay. Highly recommend this place.

Bangkok Grill

Bangkok Grill

It's been about 10 years since I've been in the Champlain Centre mall, and sadly it hasn't…read moreimproved. When we hit the food court, it was alarming to see there were even fewer spots than the last time we were in, and Bangkok Grill was the only establishment that we recognized. Some of the food isn't that great. It's greasy, over sweetened Chinese fare with little kick. The samples we were offered, not sure what it was supposed to be, but it tasted like a chicken finger that had been dipped in corn syrup. I know know everyone likes spice, but if I order something like Kimchi, I expect to feel a bit of a burn, and while there was a mild hint of spice, it didn't burn my tongue and throat as I was expecting. My husband opted for the Pick 2/Pick 2 special they had, but I wanted something I figured they had to make on the spot and went with a hibachi meal. My meal was the superior of the two. It was fresh, hot, and well flavored. My husband was a little disappointed by the amount he was charged. It was explained to him that for the $4.95 (great deal) you picked two meats and two sides. He did so and was told since he picked four items, there was an additional charge of $1. The board said 2 meats and 2 sides, so we don't know what's up with that. In the end, I really miss having a sit down restaurant in the mall, and I certainly miss the Greek place that used to be in the food court when I was younger.

I was having dinner later but was starving, so decided on trying it here…read more I had pretty low expectations for this place and it's $4 menu. But this was some of the best asian I had in a while. 2 types of chicken, a serving of veggies and some fried rice for a bargain price. It really hit the spot, one of the better options in this food court. They also have some take-out sushi, will try it next time.
