MANDARIN HOUSE

The other day someone told us that Mandarin House has more to offer than just a buffet. Shocked, we whisked on over to see if the rumor was true. It is.

If you aren't feeling quite buffet-ish, Mandarin House has a menu erupting with low-priced lunch specials and dazzling dinner cuisine. There's also the spacious lounge and bar area, not to mention a banquet room for entertaining large parties.

And the fortune cookies? Well, they ought to say, "You'll be back, again and again. Bwah ha ha ha ha!"
