Food Friday: China King

I love a good Chinese buffet. Hunan Wok in NW Oklahoma City has been my go to for almost 30 years. There are a few that have gone that I loved and a couple still around that I enjoy. One I hadn’t tried yet is China King on North Penn near Memorial, so on a Friday night we decided to check it out.

Located just in front of the Walmart, the parking lot wasn’t very full so maybe a red flag but we’ll see. We were seated immediately but there were very few diners. The buffets were full of steaming food, so we tackled them. The had so many of my favorites- General Tso’s chicken, seafood casserole, sweet and sour chicken, fried shrimp, egg rolls, crab rangoon. I liked most of it. The chicken was a bit dry, even the gooey General was tough. The seafood casserole needed something, just couldn’t place what it was. Even the crab rangoon was a bit flavorless.

Now the service was incredible and friendly. The restaurant was clean. I feel like if they improve the food, they might get more business. So I’m going to give them 3 strips of bacon, just for the service.

Food Friday: Hibachi Supreme Buffet

So last weekend was the Lunar New year and I always like to celebrate by enjoying Chinese food, so we took a short road trip to the south side of Oklahoma City to try out the huge Hibachi Supreme Buffet.

Even though the parking lot was full, the restaurant wasn’t too packed. We were seated quickly and started in on that buffet. They had some things that were different but they mostly had the same stuff you find at most Chinese buffets- the sweet and sour chicken, fried rice, shrimp prepared in different ways, and sushi. I had a bit of everything on this trip but my favorite was their seafood lasagna. This is a cheesy casserole type dish with different types of seafood such as shrimp and crab. I also loved their tempura fried vegetables and their tempura sushi.

Overall I liked their food but I’m only giving them 4 strips of bacon. Why? To be honest, the building was in poor shape. The carpet is coming up and filthy, the tables and chairs could have used some love as well. So the condition of the restaurant itself brought down the enjoyment of the food.
