Dieses All-you-can-eat-Restaurant lädt mit seinem Ambiente ein. Im Vergleich zu Buffets, die man aus Deutschland kennt, ist es deutlich besser. Das Personal ist überaus freundlich und viele der Speisen sind schmackhaft, auch wenn sie leider etwas kalt waren. Einige Gerichte stachen aus der riesigen Auswahl heraus und waren fantastisch. Leider enttäuscht das Sushi, was aber zu verschmerzen ist. Auch die Waffelecke war ein hit: Die frischen Waffeln schmeckten leider etwas gestreckt, aber das Angebot ist trotzdem klasse. Einige der wirklich leckeren Speisen machen die geschmacklosen Gerichte wett. Bei dem Preis kann man nicht meckern und sich ordentlich bedienen. Ich habe in Edinburgh schon schlechter gegessen und kann dieses Restaurant als willkommene Abwechslung empfehlen.
