Avoid Imperial Mae Ping Buffet @ Gold Leaf

[LawrenceChee]

Decided to try this today and while it is good value at all you can eat @320 baht, the selections are all there but quality unfortunately very poor and badly mad

Anyone who loves dim sum should avoid this place till they smart up and get a better chef

[HullyGully]

I agree, we tried Mae Ping some time ago and the food has gone downhill

Express Hotel is better for a cheaper price

[jacktrip]

terrible value. you can get unlimited thai bbq buffett under 200 baht all over.

[LawrenceChee]

Good Dim Sum and Thai BBQ is not comparing apples to apples.

I guess that must be the Empress Hotel as Ive never heard of the Express hotel or is it a new one?

[LawrenceChee]

Chedi Fujian still has the best all you can eat or ala carte but the price means you can go too often haahahahha

[LawrenceChee]

My bad it is the mandarin oriental Dhevi must be the wet weather kkkkk no snipes yet !

[HullyGully]

Yes Empress Hotel

Just a typo

there are quite afew choices of generic frozen dimsum in some mookata. probably the similar to the one you tasted in imperial

[LawrenceChee]

Unfortunately the ones erred today were worse than the CO frozen ones u get at Big C

I work with hotels this is as bad as I have seen it .....

So I say for now skip it

What is the price

[LawrenceChee]

Heya hellodolly

At Mandarin Oriental it's all you can eat at 790 baht++ at Fujian although I recommend if u are a small eater to go like me for the ala carte items which are between 45-90 baht per basket ....good value for the quality there and it's very fresh, service immpecable and manager makes good recommendations

I normally average about 800-900 baht for 2 person and Chinese tea included (try hangzhou long jing which is a very light fragrant white tea)

[lizardtongue]

The D2 in front of Foxy Lady is very good for a Sunday Buffet although they only have it once a month, a little more expensive around 1200 B (with tip) and free flowing wine!

Like your choices.... Whats your view on Japanese? Perhaps in a separate thread?

[LawrenceChee]

Heya LemanRus

I like the tonkantsu and tempura for Japanese food...I am fortunate to work in japan on some weeks per year and the food is amazing so I get my load of Japanese cravings there

In Chiang Mai I enjoy eating at Fuji and Zen and have not found the rest

Any u would recommend ?
