Lucky Chinese - Berlin

Very bad buffet, bad quality and after eating they can taste nothing but fat in their mouth. I do not recommend it!

Rather disappointing experience in a cozy area of Tegel with lots of outdoor seating. The food was more German tasting than Chinese; typical Chinese spices were absent. My dish included a Chinese vegetable soup (extra price since I did not care of the soup of the day that included meat). The soup tasted salty, like Maggi. The main dish was called Chop Suey: the vegetables were not stir-fried but boiled, while the topf was inedible as a result of its super soft consistency. The desert, Chinese fruits, was canned peaches and pears in heavy syrup. The lunch crowd was impressive and I guess the restaurant is catering to the German expecting taste of Chinese Food. I tasted Chinese food on the East and West Coast of the U.S.A.: Lucky Chinese would not survive one day. Sorry!

There were four of us and we chose different dishes and shared. We had duck , fish, noodles and a seafood dish and some rice. The food was served hot and the servings were quite generous.Service was very attentive. There was a buffet available the day we went out for dinner but we chose to pick individual dishes instead. All in all the cost was very reasonable , just a little over 50 euros.

The restaurant is nice, and the dishes we ordered (mostly typical shanghainese ones) had the real taste. The environment is cozy and the waiters attentive. My only complain is that the portions are small for the price they charge. I have eaten better chinese food for less money in Berlin, so I will not go back to that restaurant any time soon.
