Surprisingly good Sichuan noodles in Berlin Mitte. I mean,…read moreberlin is probably the world capital of "good but not great" food - everything is good, but you are very rarely blown away. And there is this place - which is, genuinely, amazingly, great. The noodles have the right tooth, the broth is unctuous and umami laden, the meats/veggies/tofu/... are done just right - I mean, this is amazeballs! And yeah, you can get all the ma-la fix that you want - just be wary of the lunch rush...

The owner was quick to help us order the correct amount of spice and the woman cooking in the back was responsive to the spice level. Normally, Germans do not like much spice in their food.

The Royal Gourmet is one of the most popular eating temples with Asian ambience. Asian, mind you,…read morebecause besides Chinese dishes there are also hints of Thai cuisine, Vietnamese dishes and Japanese sushi as well as gyoza. The quality is certainly OK for the German-European taste, but authentic cuisine is different. It also falls on the fact that here practically no Asian guests are to be found. Beside the menu there is a normal buffet as well as a mongolian buffet. Here the fish/seafood selection is positive. With the meat, however, the choice is very limited. Kangaroo, beef, chicken skewers, lamb skewer, lamb chop - that's it. Not even pig for the grill was available. The latter is also hardly represented in the normal buffet - but from my visits in Asia I know the popularity of pork in the local kitchen. From comparable establishments as well. As I said, a lot of things come from the sea - blue shark, parrotfish, zander, salmon, butterfish to name a few, as well as various kinds of shrimp and prawns, green clams with shell, pilgrim mussels (scallops) - a useful selection. Weaknesses can be found again in the fresh vegetables, which are cut quite roughly. Staff: friendly and initially also attentive. But in order to order some drinks, one had to call somebody, and in order to pay, one even had to talk to one of the employees at the counter. Price: From a Hamburg point of view, Berlin has the reputation of being noticeably cheaper. Concerning price and quality, the latter is below Hamburg standard, the price above. Ambience: The interior is already very "traditional". Unfortunately, it is too kitschy even for an "eastern" with Bruce Lee. What a pity, because there is definitely modern Asian design. If I didn't know better, this would probably shape my image of Asia here. For many other guests at least it will probably be so. Well then - the buffet is open!

In the picture is the beef dumplings only (b9 on the menu I believe) as I was starving and chomped on the pumpkin/pea set immediately.

There's a ton to pick from on the menu, however their real menu isn't nearly as inviting as their online one. Would I go back for the food? Yes. Would I go back for the prices? On the occasion. Would I go back for the ambiance? Not really, we almost walked past the restaurant not knowing that it was even there; absolutely no people were there for our entire 1 1/2 hr stay. Would I go back for the asian guy working there who tried to make us feel like valued customers? Definitely. However, would I go back for the hostess? No. I'm not sure if she lacked German vocabulary, or was just being plain money-greedy... but she did everything in her power to not allow my partner and I to use our 2 for 1 coupon. She twisted rules into the coupon that it didn't even state. The coupon says, "Gegen Abgabe des Schecks, vor der Bestellung, erhalten Sie nur für den Verzehr im Restaurant und nur bei Bestellung von Getränken und mind. einer Vorspeise bei Barbezahlung das zweite wertgleiche oder preiswertere Gericht gratis." In translation: -Hand the coupon in before ordering. -Only usable if you're eating in the restaurant. -Must pay with cash. -The ordering of all drinks + at least 1 entrée add up to your discount. -You get another dish, of the same value or less, for free. With that, we got an entrée for 6€, 3€ coke, 4.50€ dumplings, and another 10€ meal. She insisted that #1 dumplings don't count as a meal nor an entrée. #2 She gave us the coupon back saying that we would have to order more or else she wouldn't give us the discount; so the coupon went unused. As for the fortune cookie, I would've much rather have stuck to my delicious dinner for dessert. If stale yeast is your thing, then you will have an absolute parade after eating one. Yummy kisses! ;) I can't complain about my fortune since it was more of a demand than a prediction, "Awaken!" -- Thank you Kang Feng, I was definitely awake after the amount of spicy herbs I in-took. :D
