Lunch at Yakiniku Viking TRY is a great deal – 980Y for adults, 580Y for kids 4 and over, for all you can eat yakiniku 90 minutes. They have a selection to please everyone. The salad bar offers lettuce, seaweed, salad green, corn, onion, enobi mushrooms, potatoes with butter, and three types of dressing. The middle table has noodles and soup, rice, takoyaki, french fries, other fried things, and bad tomato pasta. The yakiniku portion has multiple variations on thin-sliced pork, beef, and chicken, as well as liver and fat for the adventurous. Veggies for the grill include cabbage, onions, corn on the cob, garlic shoots, and garlic cloves. There are several accoutrements: mashed garlic, soy, “fry sauce”, spice and pepper mix, and another unidentified lightly coloured sauce. You should get 2 plates, one just for raw things to go on the grill. Some put everything straight on the grill, others douse in sauce first. There are two minor complaints with this place: 1) the grills are small, really only suitable for 2 people, but the tables seat four, 2) it takes a lot of attention to cook the food properly, and between that and the size of the table and the restaurant noise and music, it is hard to converse with your dining companions. However, dessert gives you an opportunity to catch up on the chit chat– there are lychees (from a tin), grapefruits, bananas in chocolate sauce, tinned mandarin slices and tropical fruit cocktail, melon-flavoured jelly, pieces of cake, soft serve ice cream, plastic cups of ice cream, and fairy floss (cotton candy) for the kiddos. The drinks are also all you can drink tea (3 types), sodas, and coffee. Dinner is exactly the same as lunch, but costs 1580 for 60min, 1780 for 90min, and 1980 for 120min. Between 5-7pm, a small draft beer (not Orion) is 50Y. There are various specials through the week, but we don’t know when they are. If you are lucky, you will show up on ladies’ night.
