The Royal Grace Hotel is located far away from the city and in the Valley of Lights. Opened in 2012, Manaxi Restaurant is one of the few long-established buffet restaurants in Wuhan. With its affordable price, fresh ingredients and good taste, Manaxi Restaurant has beaten many five-star hotel buffet restaurants in one fell swoop, and is very popular among diners in Wuhan.
The restaurant has ordinary ingredients, but fortunately, there is a wide variety of dishes, and all meals are available without limits. As far as Western food is concerned, Tomahawk steak is the restaurant's signature, with thick and juicy meat, but the production is unstable. In order to reduce the cost of unlimited quantities, the quality of the steak is poor, coupled with the tight roasting time and the heat is too fierce, and the meat is old and difficult to chew and the taste is dry. Grilled lamb chops are also a popular dish, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and lightly processed with spices such as cumin and black pepper to cover the smell and enhance the flavor. Lamb skewers are wholesale frozen foods connected to bone meat, which are of poor quality, and it is difficult to cover the smell of meat with spices. Guests are advised to choose only Tomahawk steak and lamb chops. For cold cuts, Parma ham is a favorite among diners, and the whole ham is placed on the buffet counter, which can be cut if needed and eaten with cheese.
The restaurant's ice cream is especially worth trying. Instead of following the trend of serving Häagen-Dazs, Manazi chose T'oBeray, an ice cream brand from New Zealand, as one of the desserts. The desserts in the restaurant are varied and plain, not as exquisite as those of Hyatt and InterContinental, but the taste is not inferior. In addition to western pastries such as tiramisu and macarons, there are also sweet soups such as fruit sago and poplar nectar, which have a sweet taste and are cool to quench your thirst.
The Chinese food at Manasi Restaurant is mediocre, but Buddha Jumping Over the Wall is the signature of the restaurant's Chinese cuisine, and the soup is rich in flavor and rich in ingredients in the bowl, including abalone, sea cucumber, king oyster mushroom, pork skin, fish lips and other ingredients, the taste is authentic. The seafood section of the restaurant is a little deserted, with only standard seafood such as crab legs, mussels, and kiwei shrimp, and only salmon, tuna, octopus, etc. for sashimi in the sushi area. The restaurant used to serve more premium seafood ingredients such as crab, king crab, oysters, glass shrimp, Boston lobster, etc., but it was not long in time and was often out of supply. Manasi's high-end seafood is comparable to a raffle, and the odds of encountering it are very low. Moreover, the crabs are small and have little meat, and the quality is far inferior to the crabs served by Jiahua Gourmet Hui and Ran Restaurant.
The décor of Manasi Restaurant is quite old, the plastic striped ceiling and square tiles are slightly shabby, and the imitation European design is slightly outdated, but it is clean and hygienic. Restaurants often launch promotions, if you are willing to go, it is recommended to check the website or APP in advance to check the price.
