Shi Mei - Gelsenkirchen

I've been to a lot of buffets in my life and this one saved me as I was stuck in Gelsenkirchen all week and there is only a BK in the area (which is also good). This restaurant has an adequate buffet, but sadly no Mongolian cook to order grill until certain times (not sure). The lunch was only 9 bucks during weekdays. They have not as many meat types as you might get in a large city, but they have more fruit and dessert types than you'd expect. They also have peanuts as garnish and a chocolate fountain for dessert. I ate more shrimp than I have in my entire life here. I ate here 5 days out of my 7 day trip. Just watch what they put out fresh and you've got an excellent cheap, fresh lunch. The staff is nice but I was scolded on my first visit for trying to pay separately from the rest of my group. They have a split check fee of 1,50 I think. But they graced me that day and from then on, I just went alone. The clientele is funny weekday brunch is the senior citizen and foreigners buffet (I'm a foreigner too). All you can eat, with all you can eat kiwi and mango, with really good Jasmine tea.....I feel sorry for myself that I'm back home and have nothing similar in my region of Germany. Note, weekends and holidays the prices go way up, as with all buffets. TIP the waiters, they deserve it.

For me personally one of the best chinabuffet in gelsenkirchen and around. the selection is huge and everything is very appealing. who likes Chinese buffet only to recommend. the only negative is the size when it is very full it is already very loud in the restaurant.

I've been passing by "shi mei" more often and thought with each time "no, that doesn't look very inviting," unfortunately the impression of m.M.n and her friends confirmed. the spatialities have a very full and pressing effect, and the amount of people there have been squealing for a long time and there were still some tables free. Here counts the divise "quantity instead of quality", there is a great choice at the buffet (except dessert, there is too little) but accordingly it has also tasted or not tasted, meat was for example either too long fried or too little. we were not even asked for new drinks during our entire stay and we had to wait about 20 minutes for the bill. the only thing that has remained in memory to us is the grapes with cheese!

Very rich buffet huge qualitatiw good to very well lacked that some food at the Chinese buffet would not be really hot but very good taste.The Mongolian was consistently very good.I still have to highlight the dessertecke cake, even soft ice cream fruit and even a chocolate fountain simply great.

We frequent this restaurant at least 2 times a month, especially on Saturday, for lunch. the buffet is very varied and of good quality, the price is very low.
