If you're roaming around the Stemple gates and hunger strikes, Chow Bar is your go-to spot, especially for a hearty lunch. The place buzzes with students and locals alike, drawn in by the promise of an epic weekend lunch buffet and a menu brimming with authentic Chinese delights. The buffet is a standout, offering everything from spicy willow beef to perfectly crispy pot stickers, all served up in a laid-back atmosphere where casual meets quality.
For those with a taste for adventure, the menu dives deep into traditional Chinese cuisine with dishes like 'Water Cooked' beef shank, tongue, and tripe, and Stir-Fried Fatty Intestines. These dishes are a culinary challenge for the uninitiated but a delightful surprise for the palate, blending tender meats with spicy, flavorful sauces. The atmosphere at Chow Bar might not scream fine dining, but it's a peaceful spot to enjoy a meal, perhaps with a side of Far Side comics. And yes, they've got boba tea to wash down the feast. Whether you're a local, a student, or just passing through, Chow Bar promises a taste of China right near campus.
