Going out for chinese banquet.....

Am going out with my friend tomorrow night to this FAB chinese buffet place, eat all you can for £14, its really really lovely. Now desserts available are only fruit and or icecream and I know enough to go for the fresh fruit salad, but there are about 40 - 50 starter and main courses to choose from...
I'm salivating just thinking about it!

I particularly like the seaweed, spare ribs, shredded duck, mushrooms in garlic, sweet and sour chicken and stir fried vegetables

How am I for points on these sort of dishes and what dishes should I be going for?? (I'm usually strongly tempted to pull my chair up to the buffet and tuck right in!)

Thanks

What a gem kittypickle!!

That list will be great

The takeaway I had last night isn't on the list. Not even thinking about the points, just have to be really good the rest of the week.

Deep fried chicken in cantonese sauce and chips.

Lisa78 · 29/02/2004 21:44

wow kittypickle! Thats fab! Should I have some of everything on the list do you think and then just not eat for a week (or 3)
