New Great Gobi Mongolian BBQ in Taipei, Taiwan

Mongolian BBQ

All of that talk about Mongolian BBQ yesterday got me thinking about it tonight, so we went out to this one in Ximending, as I had never heard about it before (81 Chengdu Road 4F, 02-2311-5656). It was huge, and they even gave you hotpot and a spread of other items to go along with it. But I didn't really like any of the food. I struggled to get my Mongolian BBQ to taste right, as the lamb didn't taste like lamb, and I learned the hard way that I had to double up on the soy sauce. The hot pot broth was watery, and they used the same lousy beef for that too. Ultimately, it was basically just a big buffet, with quantity in place of quality. I don't need to go back.
