Venue: Golden Town Chinese Restaurant
We were supposed to have this pre-Valentine dinner at Joop Thai but they were fully-booked that weekend so we had to find another restaurant. Among the many choices around Albany, we picked Golden Town. They've got buffet dinner and we thought it would be perfect for our Asian preference.
But it turned out as a big disappointment. Hubby and I had dinner there three years ago and the food was great; they must have hired a new chef, I was guessing. Though the buffet table looked full, none of the food on there seemed pleasing to our taste buds. The fried dimsims were too oily and bland; mongolian beef lacked the strong flavor of tenderized beef; fried rice and noodles tasted like they were deep-fried in oil and there was not even a single desert. At $16/head, we deserve far better food than what we had to pay for. We could have just bought a box pizza which we will surely enjoy.
