This restaurant was serving "Thai Peanut" chicken when I visited there recently. The chicken I chose was COMPLETELY RAW in the center.
When we told our server, she did not tell the management, and it was not removed from the buffet.
The lo mein was old and chewy, the kimchee was tasteless, the spring rolls were from last spring.. worst asian buffet I've ever had, and I;ve had A LOT!!!
Located right past the intersection of state routes 65 South and 256 West-this may be your last chance at decent food as you head out in the direction of St Louis.
Reasonably priced with each individual item orders priced under $10 each, with a lot of the locals purchasing a take-out container to select from the buffet ($7/lb.) The kids seemed to enjoy the selection of desserts and other fried treats being offered.
The price for the buffet on weekdays is $10, and on Weekends it's $11, kids pay $6 (under age 3 the kids are free.)
The take out food would be my recommendation from a quick glance at the warming trays in the buffet. A lot of the food looked like it had been sitting for a while, and you will probably be happier with fresh food from the kitchen.
The steamed dumplings for $5 were on the small side, but you do get eight pieces-though they do take a while to cook, so be patient.
I also had the Spicy Hot Bean Curd with Minced Pork. Passable Ma Po Tofu, but it had too many onions and not enough minced pork-and the gravy was too sweet for me. Served with a half pint of rice at $7, it was a filling meal.
Nothing to rave about to your Mom, but a decent meal at a decent price and a better alternative to the fast food served along the interstate.
