QIAN KU LI SEAFOOD-BUFFET

How should I put it? A lot of seafood is fresh... Especially crabs have many varieties, such as hairy crabs, king crabs, small blue crabs, sweet shrimps, etc. Beverages, cold drinks and desserts are all good... But vegetables and fruits are not very good!

This restaurant is located in Dalian Xinghai Square, with a good location, a grand hotel and high-end decoration. There are many kinds of dishes, fine workmanship and super delicious taste, especially the millet Liao cucumber is particularly authentic.

Finally, I came to punch the ceiling of the buffet, Qiankuli, which costs 499 per person. Qiankuli of Xinghai is located by the Malan River. If I remember correctly, it should be the location of the Munich shed of the Oktoberfest. It is a single-family warehouse with high beech frames and a large area. It is very suitable for a buffet venue. Although there are many people, it will not appear crowded. Although the Oktoberfest is far away from us, fortunately we still have Qiankuli. He has private rooms, and the price is only ten yuan more expensive per person than the scattered tables, which is still very suitable. The big private room we sat in has doors on both sides. One side leads to the corridor, which is very close to the bathroom, and the other side is a whole wall of glass. Pushing the door out is the hall, which is convenient for picking up food. If you want privacy, there are floor-to-ceiling curtains, which can be drawn. There will be performances starting at 6:30 in the evening, and they will perform for a while and rest for a while. There are six actors, four dancers, and two singers. To be honest, their singing and dancing levels are relatively average, but they are all very hard-working. The atmosphere is good, which is better than nothing. After all, no performance does not affect the meal, and performances can also adjust the atmosphere. Let's talk about the price. Adults are 499 yuan, those over 70 are 269 yuan, those between 1.2 and 1.5 meters are 199 yuan, and those under 1.2 meters are free. There is no time limit for dining, and you can eat until closing at 10 pm, but you can't waste food. Each person is limited to 100 grams of food waste, and a deposit of 100 yuan is required. If the amount exceeds the limit, it will not be refunded. It is recommended to take less frequently. Let's talk about the dining experience. First of all, it is not as terrible as what is said on the Internet, that there are people queuing at 4:30, and it takes a long time to queue for everything. I went there at 5 pm on Sunday and didn't feel that way at all. The store is very real, and there is no limit on everything. You can take as much as you want. I have taken cheese crab treasure, cheese prawns, flying crabs, river crabs, lobsters, river crabs with sauce, conchs, sea urchin steamed eggs, sashimi, palm-sized scallops, palm-sized oysters, fresh durian meat, grilled durian, mantis shrimp, tiger crabs, snow crab legs, crayfish, various barbecues, various hot pot dishes, and so on. Basically, there is nothing you can't get, only what you can't think of. The key is that you can take whatever you want, and you don't need to queue up, which is much better than some buffets that cost 300 or 400 per person. To be honest, I always thought that the 499 buffet was a joke in my heart, because it was impossible to make back the money anyway, but after comparing it with the Grand Hyatt buffet that costs more than 300, I still deeply feel that this buffet is worth the price. So whether something is worth it or not, you can't just look at the absolute value, you have to look at the relative value. I saw a beautiful woman spend 500 yuan on a ticket and eat Sansheng dipping sauce there. In addition, whether this can be eaten back depends on the person. I saw two young guys eating more than 50 flying crabs with my own eyes, and this item alone made back the money. Overall, if you don't consider whether you can make back the money, and just want to have a meal without restrictions, you can still come and eat.

Very delicious seafood buffet restaurant, the meat is very fresh, highly recommended!
