If it swims and isn't a sumarine, if it fly's and isn't a B52 Bomber and if it run's and isn't running after you, the Mongolian's will eat it. It was perhaps therefore with some trepidation which i went to a Mongolian all-you-can-eat buffet with my housemates today. We were originally going to do to a Pizza Hut and gorge on the pasta and ice-cream but they decided not to offer it today so we went for something abit more adventurous. For $9.99 (about £4.90 or 2p at the current exchange rate), we got given a bowl and told to get stuffed. Not quite literally! The buffet available included frozen meats, vegetables, uncooked noodles and a variety of weirder produce. It took me a minute or 2 to realise that they cooked your bowlful after you had selected it.
And thus a mutual eating contest ensued. Abi consented herself with 2 bowlfuls but thats ok cos she's a girl! (its a joke! don't take it seriously!). Russ and i continued through our 4th big bowl full before i won by a noodle. Amongst the weirder things i sampled were "very hot chilli sauce" which was indeed, very hot! "Teriyaki sauce" a weird sort of Japanese import, bamboo shoots - slightly unorthodoxed but nice! No jokes about koala's please! Water coconut - nothing special and "banana peppers" - no idea what they are and i don't reccommend them!
So returning to the apartment suitably over-filled, ive spent the rest of the day watching a film and playing the guitar. Tomorrow uni starts back and the hard work continues until the end of term.
