text: So I had never been to a place like this although I have seen them in other malls Here you are seated and then your server explains to you how it works and very VERY quickly I might add I know the concept is simple but I needed to know why the menu did not exactly describe the food and since I have written this review AFTER I have eaten here I still do not know why the damn menu cannot help out with explanations of some of the sauces and spices nnYou are handed a small silver bowl kind of like a doggy dish huh You walk your lazy ass over to the line and load up on your choice of however much you want of raw chicken beef pork shrimp scallops krab and whatever else is on this chilled salad bar Playing upchuckroulette is not one of my favorite ways to spend an evening but hey I will try anything once nFrom here you move on to a stack of different spices which range from mild to assripping and while they are labeled if you do not know what something is to begin with then you just do not know I picked three one was garlic powder and the other two I could not tell you and sprinkled my shrimpchickenbeef On to the vegetablesnHere we have what amounts to a salad bar with a few Asian twists I sometimes think of myself in the same way when I am gettin down and that is only when my ego is in full force But I digress You load up veggies into your bowl such as broccoli spinach baby corn water chestnuts mushrooms and I threw in a few of those kung pao hot peppers just for fun Then you move down the line to the saucesnHeres where it gets stupid There are about different sauces There are even tasting spoons if you do not know what something is But my problem with this is that I am not going to stand here and taste a bunch of stuff and hold up the line although I am sure plenty of nimrods do So I just closed my eyes and picked three just like with the spices Small scoops into a little dipping container and then you move down to the cook who will fire up your food with noodles or rice and then have it brought directly to your table nI cannot tell you what I picked as far as sauces and seasonings go but the food was cooked perfectly Beef was not chewy and there was a nice sear on the sides of all of the meats At first I was disappointed because I could not taste any of my flavorings But then a few minutes went by and I got that steamy facereddening eyewatering aftertaste heat that only Asian food can produce Great successnAnd I did not get salmonella either this timenOh AAAND happy hour well drinks with a decenttoheavy pour
