http://www.theeasiankitchen.comYou might be wondering if it should read "The Asian Kitchen" and that I misspelled the restaurant name. I didn't. It really is called "Thee Asian Kitchen".
Thee Asian Kitchen is an all you can eat (AYCE) restaurant serving flavours from Thai, Japanese, and Chinese. They provide an menu where you order your desired dishes. Be sure not to waste or you'll get charged for it. There's a 2 hour seating limit so you can't eat forever.
A simple stylistic interior:
Those back rests aren't too bad but you can't rest your whole back on them.
Salad bar:
Salmon Sashimi:
Sea Eel and Roe:
The eel were not the BBQ kind and tasted fresh and smooth.
Soft shell crab, spicy salmon, crunchy shrimp rolls:
Loose rolls that didn't taste good. They used more filling ingredients than real materials like the spicy salmon rolls were loaded with mayo and had very little salmon. I would avoid ordering sushi rolls.
Lemon fried wings:
These were over fried but we were hungry so they disappeared quickly.
Tempura Eggplant:
Fresh and crispy. Didn't taste over fried.
Beef blocks:
Not as big as the menu's picture but it was still tender and well done.
Green curry beef:
Typical beef slices in a nice mildly spicy green curry that is just the right texture. The best, and highly recommended, dish from the whole dinner.
Spicy salmon pizza:
Over fried and the salmon on top looked different from what I'm used to. I wish it were simply slices of salmon.
Dessert bar:
I was too filled to try any of these but I did have some run raisin ice cream from the ice cream bar.
With a large menu of a variety of Asian dishes like tempura, curries, satay, and fried rice, Thee Asian Restaurant is a great place to go out with friends. Most of the foods are of high quality but some should be avoided. Evenings are around $22 for adults with a small cash discount.

the salad bar wasn't that great, the salmon sashimi was good, and similarly, i was too full for the dessert bar :(
I am sorry I have to deny your review. I went there for dinner tonight and the foods there were absolutely disgusting.
I won't complain so much about their sashimi because they didnt taste particularly bad. However, their overall fried/stir-fried/deep-fried/grilled etc..
all of the hot dishes I tried were drawned in nasty sauce and oil.
Their wings had terrible smell, the salmon head also stank and was filled with grease inside. Not to mention they didnt really season the thing, so I was able to taste
was oil and salmon fat.
I also tried their Cold Soba and the Soba noodles tasted like paper; they were dry and the portion was outrageously little. (but i was glad the portion was small)
Also their shrimp tempuras came half melted, and the inside of the tempuras were filled with nasty oil AGAIN.
Their rolls were also nasty, I dont even wanna describe it.
My girlfriend and I came out of that restaurant feeling totally ripped off and we felt like vomitting; too bad they dont sell alcohol because we really needed
alcohol to wash off the tastes of those nasty foods.
If I were to rate this restaurant out of 10 I would give this restaurant a 0, We want refunds.
