On our last visit to Big Bear, we decided to try something new. The Mongolian Palace's all you can eat buffet was a perfect solution to "something new." For anyone who hasn't tried a Mongolian BBQ, there is a huge assortment of cut up meats and vegetables to choose from. They give you a largish empty bowl and set you loose. After chosing things you like and piling your bowl as high as possible, you hand it to the chef, who stir fries it on a huge grill. There are sauces involved, though very little oil for those who are health conscious. The finished product is heaped back into your bowl, and waiters bring pocket breads and rice to your table to accompany your meal.
Mongolian Palace was a great change of pace for us, and we'll be back on our next visit.
