From casual to fine dining, from sushi to Chinese food, tandoori to barbecue, Whistler is a place to find a fabulous gastronomic experience. This is where food preparation from all corners of the world meets. It is also where a range of family-oriented restaurants offer excellent value and high quality to diners.
Mongolie Grill was a unique experience and a fun place to go with the whole family. It is a restaurant where you choose your ingredients and create your own world-class stir fry.
The concept goes like this: begin by grabbing your bowl, then walk through a long food bar filled with a wonderful selection of seafood, tender meats, garden fresh vegetables, and an array of noodles. Choose and combine your own ingredients: veggies and meats, seafood with noodle, beef with broccoli, or maybe a little of everything. Then flavor your favourite ingredients with a delicious selection of sauces from around the world: teriyaki, coconut curry and Thai peanut, or maybe the chef's sauce combination. Pass your combination to one of several chefs available. After weighing your bowl to get the cost, he goes to the biggest wok (huge grill) I have ever seen and plunks it down to get it positioned for cooking. Watch him theatrically grill your creation before your eyes.
It was very easy to be taken in with the amount of food in the food bar. I suggest a walk around first, decide what you are truly craving for, and then cautiously start loading up. I was surprise by the amount of food those bowls can actually hold; by the time I was done picking my load, my cost came to a total of $32, almost 3 lbs. Here you can eat to your heart's content.
Mongolie Grill was truly an enjoyable dining experience: delicious food, fun ambience, entertaining chefs, and a friendly staff. Located in Whistler Village Center, it is easy to find, just across from Starbucks and next to the Village 8 theater. Cost is $12.50/lb. Children under 12 were given a child-size bowl with a fixed rate of $7.50. Lunch until 4pm is 20% off.
