Crocodile meat - because I've always wanted to know what it would taste like, if a chicken and a fish had a child.
I've been wanting to try out Mongolian buffet for years now, and thankfully I finally got the chance to do so!
The restaurant itself opened just recently, and the interieur is stunning. You have small alcoves and plenty of statues, plants and dividers everywhere - so, although the restaurant is huge, you never get the feeling of having too many people sitting around you.
There is the possibility of ordering á la carte, but we chose to try out the buffet and it was most definitely the right decision! The buffet is basically divided into 4 smaller buffet areas:
- starters/cold food/salad bar/sushi
- normal asian buffet (plenty of warm, pre-cooked dishes including your usual duck, veggies, chicken etc.)
- Mongolian grill (raw meat, fish, seafood & veggies)
- dessert buffet (all kinds of fruit, cakes, pudding, a chocolate fountain, ice cream etc.)
I was most curious about the Mongolian grill part:
You pick the raw ingredients you want and then chose a sauce to go with it. You leave that next to the grill with a clip on the plate that is labelled with your table number. The raw ingredients are then turned into your very own freshly prepared meal and served to you at your table a couple minutes later.
The quality of those ingredients was great, and the choice was rather exotic as well. You could try kangaroo and crocodile, parrotfisch and clams, mini-lobsters and various other things.
You can basically eat as much as you like and as many courses as you wish, all for a ridiculously cheap 15,90€ (dinner buffet - the price for the lunch buffet is even cheaper). Considering the huge variety and the high quality of the food, this is a fair deal!
Bottom line:
* Great new restaurant with lovely design
* A huge buffet that has about everything you could wish for
* Mongolian grill - you get to pick your own ingredients for your individual dish
* Low price, high quality and huge variety
* Try the crocodile...chicken + fish...no kidding!
* Will definitely come back here!! read more
