Buffet Island has a great Teppanyaki section. I am a big fan of sushi too. Wing Wah is better in the evening than during the day as they appear to limit the dishes on offer. The Imperial in Wolves used to be good but I haven't eaten there in ages. What's your favourite Indian restaurant in Stafford?tek-monkey said:Thats complete opposite to what I experienced, but again we're talking a curry person! I thought Wing Wah was great, but wasn't as impressed with Buffet Island (used to work up there). Must depend on you taste I suppose.

I wasn't expecting much as far as quality goes, so I haven't come away disappointed. That said, I would never choose to go there again.tek-monkey said:I thought it was sub-standard crap but I'm not a fan of chinese anyway! I found those who value quantity love it, those who tend to eat less prefer other places.
i agree - it freaks me out the way they whip your plate away like that when you have barely finished! also it wouldnt bother me taking the same plate back up again - they must have LOADS of washing up!! Last time we went we had booked a table but we had to wait 20 mins after the booking time to be seated - and we werent the only ones. Having said that we have been several times (although not since the waiting for a table incident!) and its always packed, they must take a fortune every single day!Andreas Rex said:Just been to Golden Orient for the first time...and an 'all you can eat' buffet for the first time too. My sentiments are exactly the same as...

edit: It wasn't necessarily about the food (though it wasn't great)....the fact that they hover over you and take your plate away as soon as you're finished is the most impersonal dining experience i've ever had.
