My work colleague suggested this buffet place as a decent place to grab lunch and described it as a buffet with both Chinese and Indian food options. This actually aroused my curiosity about such a hybrid, but lack of restaurant options not being that huge, decided to go. It's a massive space, and we were seated quickly and I headed to the entree/ starter section of the buffet which had a Chinese section (spring rolls, etc) and an Indian section. (Bhajiya, poppadums, etc). Of the options here, I thought pepper fish and pakora were the best - the ribs tasted really tough and so ended up just leaving those on the plate.
My next foray was to the Indian part of the buffet, which was heaps smaller than the Chinese - the Indian dishes numbered around 7, while the Chinese buffet dishes easily were around 15-20. Of the options here, the lamb really was the best option, but the rice was super dry. I saw that the chicken dishes (there were x3) were in a very oily looking sauce, so avoided them. Then I headed back to buffet for some Chinese options (fried rice, noodles, pork in 5 spice, stir fried broccoli, chicken in black bean sauce, etc- these were def better tasting then the Indian, but some of the meat pieces I got tasted dry and also sometimes the salt was too much for my palate.
The selection of dessert cakes was and sweets was quite large, but the portion itself was quite small. Ice-cream was also available, but I ended up trying the banana custard, and a small cake. Both tasted okay. All in all, I did get fed, and for a decent price too (£7.99 per person), however am unsure if would go back here again. read more
