REVIEW – New China Super Buffet: Asian Buffet (Tucson, AZ)

New China Super Buffet plate

I ate at New China Super Buffet for dinner.

They had moved food around and added a sushi bar & Hibachi grill since the last time I went there. The majority of chicken & beef dishes they had were sweet, but not overbearingly so. I didn't try everything (for example, I didn't try the sushi), but the majority of what I ate was tasty.

One thing I really didn't like were the overly cheesy mussels and crab meat. I might have liked those if they got rid of the cheese.

I tried some chicken and noodles with spicy Mongolian sauce on the Hibachi grill. It was a little too spicy for me, but it still tasted good.

Overall, the food was tasty and on the sweet side, but very oily, and I did get a minor headache (probably from the oiliness of the food). However, it was still probably one of the better Asian buffets I've had in Tucson.

REVIEW – Sweet Tomatoes: Salad a la Carte

Sweet Tomatoes Salad
My boyfriend's salad, covered in sunflower seeds and raisins

I had a Sweet Tomatoes salad to-go for dinner.

My usual salad consists of:

  • Wonton Chicken Happiness Salad
  • More lettuce
  • Mushrooms
  • Green bell peppers
  • Rotini pasta
  • Peas
  • Jicama
  • Sweet pickles
  • A sprinkle of cheddar cheese
  • Herb chicken
  • Edamame
  • Seasoned croutons

    • Unforunately, there was no edamame or jicama when I went there this time. :(

    I really like Sweet Tomatoes because you can make your own salad any way you want. For example, my boyfriend just got some vegetables covered in herb chicken, sunflower seeds, and a ton of raisins (as shown in the picture).

    The quality of the vegetables/lettuce/toppings at Sweet Tomatoes is pretty good for a salad bar/buffet. Sweet Tomatoes used to not have chicken (and edamame) as free add-ons in the past, so the addition of those makes it even better. (Hopefully they won't get rid of that!)

    The ability to make your own salad the way you want it is what really makes it delicious.
