https://pittythings.com/great-wall-chinese-food/ I’m a fan of Chinese buffets and so is the whole family. I do have somewhat high standards, enjoying tasty and authentic Chinese food. I know authentic as I’ve lived in China before, and don’t expect the food to be exactly the same here. Here are a few guidelines to enjoy the buffet.
First of all, how do you find a good one? My favorite is a hole in the wall with a corny name you’d never expect to be good, so it’s hard to tell. It’s also difficult to take other people’s opinions because quite honestly, people’s opinions very a lot, which is a polite way of saying many people have bad taste. The rule of thumb is if you like it and it doesn’t make you sick, it’s good!
As a rule skip combo buffets. A Chinese buffet may also have pizza and tacos and who knows what else, and that’s fine, but in my experience if the sign says something like “Mexican-Chinese Buffet” or “Italian and Chinese Buffet,” run, don’t walk away.
Once seated, first examine all the choices. Also what is everyone else eating. What looks popular? Your first plat should have very small portions of a great many things. Some will be winners, and some perhaps les so. Your second plate, typically a full plate as your first one may have been sparse, concentrate on what you’ve found you really like.
Soup or no soup? That’s your choice. I’ll typically do a small bowl of my favorite to see how I like it.
A special note to big eaters like myself. At least to some extent, fill up on veggies as well as other dishes. Do not do all deep friend stuff either. Otherwise you may be bloated all day and need a nap!
Chinese Restaurant Menus – Why Full-Color Menus Are Important to Your Customers
Chinese restaurants as a whole tend to have bold, bright, and colorful imagery in their establishment. Many Chinese restaurants have walls lined with elaborate golden dragons, lucky knots, and other Chinese imagery. Your menu shouldn’t be any different – it should stay focused and true to your restaurant interior. You will find your menu flyers produce a much better response if the menu design shows the customer that you are an authentic Chinese restaurant before the customer even reads your menu. This also helps you in a multitude of other ways including branding, consistency, and the ability to stand out amongst other popular take out restaurants. With full color menus in your Chinese restaurant, your business can stand out above the rest and catch the eye of potential customers.
Full color menus also provide sales increases to your business, no matter what your food specialty may be. In today’s modern society, color advertising is very much in demand and it is expected of professional businesses. That means printing in anything less than full color now looks unprofessional as well as unappetizing. A customer who looks at full color printing will see a professional, qualified, and trustworthy business. However, grayscale menu printing results in the customer viewing the business as unprofessional, “cheap”, tacky and of a poor quality. First impressions are vital to your restaurant especially when you want people to choose your restaurant over competitors.
