Helen and I had lunch there yesterday at "Fook Yuen" (sounds like we're being rude to The Nathan). The original plan had been "Todo de Bom", the relatively new Brazilian barbecue place, but they only do lunch on weekends. How can a place survive, being open only from 5-10 pm during the week?
"Fook Yuen", although certainly a more elegant environment than Chopsticks Express or Patti's Chinese Kitchen, doesn't really surpass them (or even equal them). China plates, a pot of green tea and an all-you-can-eat buffet for a reasonable $7.95. Although it calls itself a "Chinese seafood restaurant" the only seafood offered in the buffet was shrimp so overwhelmed by fried batter as to be almost devoid of a taste of shrimp.
Has anyone tried the other restaurants at McCully? Especially, across the street, the Indonesia Bali buffet place?
