I would eat here!
by Kevin on January 24th, 2009 on Everything OK |
| This restaurant has a good variety of food and good customer service all for a wallet-friendly price. The buffet is an excellent choice if you're wanting a quick lunch or if you're wanting the take the family out for supper. There's something here for everybody. (I recommend the General Tso's!) Like with any other buffet, make sure you come by when it's close to lunch or supper time because the food can get a little less "yummy" after it's been sitting for awhile. I do recommend ordering directly from their menu. The food is extremely fresh and flavorful, as well as, you get more for your money! Overall, this is a nice restaurant with good food and variety and for an affordable price. |
Great Pizza!
by Mary S on January 24th, 2009 on Monical's Pizza |
| Monical's has the best pizza around! Wonderful experience, everyone is so friendly and the restaurant is beautiful with TVs everywhere. They run daily specials that are cheaper than most places but the pizza is the best in the area! The class of pizza restaurants! |

Used to be good, now you never know

The story of the Snow Lion is a story that makes me very sad. I first ate at the Snow Lion in the summer of 1992. At that time, there was guy named Tony whom did about 85% of the cooking there. He always did a good job. On busy nights, the owner himself, Jigme Norbu, would come in and cook beside Tony, in order to accommodate a rush. Tom managed the restaurant, and when Tom cooked, on occasion, he did an excellent job as well. My meal would always consist of milk tea, salad, and a rice/meat dinner. I always enjoyed it. In fact, I loved it. Lots of people did. The Snow Lion was huge back then. To understand the fate of the Snow Lion, you need to understand a few of the many facets of Jigme. At his core, Jigme is a very talented guy, whom is very ambitious and can accomplish anything in the short term. In his early 20’s he developed the salad dressing and the core menu items at the Snow Lion, which, as far as I know, are original. When well prepared, they are very tasty dishes. Sure, one can argue that they aren’t really authentically Tibetan, or not really authentically anything. That isn’t the point. It’s kind of like “Star Wars,” though. Does knowing that there isn’t noise in space cause you to enjoy it less? I hope not. Jigme has an incredible talent for making things pleasing to an American palate. Once Jigme developed the few dishes and the salad dressing, nothing came after that. The appetizers and side dishes, as well as the “Indian Curry,” are all store bought and merely passed on. If Jigme sat down and developed, say, a flatbread, you can be sure that it would totally knock you out. But he never did. Instead he buys hummus and pita at Kroger. If the same kind of care and planning were put into a total menu, the same way Jigme did with the core recipes and the salad dressing, and there were always someone there to competently carry it out, the Snow Lion could have a been a legendary place, a great place. So this brings us to the the other side of Jigme. He has been too ambitious in business, and has worn himself thin, often cutting corners in order to merely make a profit. At one time during the nineties, I believe he owned/co-owned a dozen, or perhaps even two dozen, or more businesses. Restaurants…rental properties…a hotel, etc. Focusing his energy on the Snow Lion would have made it a fantastic restaurant, and it also might have kept him out of financial trouble. Tony is now long, long gone. Tom went several years later. All of the complaints and bad reviews I have read online about the Snow Lion are directly about John, Tony’s younger brother. John wasn’t cut out to work in a restaurant, let alone manage one. But Jigme will always keep John, because he’s loyal and has been willing to work long hours, 7 days a week, for years. There are other cooks that have worked at the Snow Lion over the years and some of them have been ok. But you never know what you’re going to get when you go. Jigme has had his hands in too many things to focus his full attention on the Snow Lion. If he ever did, it could be good again. And to be great, he needs to finish up the menu, and spend more time in the kitchen, like most small restaurant owners do. |
Started off Great, Has Declined A L
by X on December 15th, 2008 on Fortune Cookies |
| Fortune Cookies was my favorite Chinese delivery place in Bloomington. Unfortunately, as of late their delivery service has been abysmal. The delivery time is often well over an hour, food arrives anything but hot, and for the past four times, parts of my order have been missing. When called, it takes a long time for them to understand and (supposedly) rectify their error(s). Perhaps now that they're well known, their service is bound to suffer. Unfortunately, I will not be ordering from them again. One or two slip-ups, okay. But four? No. |
Dal Mar is the WOrst..
by Hope that DalMar closes on June 17th, 2008 on Dal-Mar Catering Banquet Hall |
| Never use Dal-Mar for any function! They are not professional extremely rude after they get their money and do not say what they will do. Everyone that I have spoke to it is the same thing over and over again, yet they are still in business. They need to be shut down!! |
