I just discovered this evening that a Mongolian Barbecue restaurant by the name of Genghis Grill opened up very close to me, and I'm gonna go this weekend.
On the off-chance any of you haven't been to one, the basic premise of any Mongolian Barbecue is you take a decent-sized bowl to a buffet-style line, drop in the starch of your choice (rice, pasta, etc.), then load it up with the meat combination of your choice (beef, chicken, shrimp), and top it off with whatever sauces you wanna put in, ranging from not spicy at all to almost thermonuclear in heat. The quantity, variety, etc., of these items is totally up to you, and once you're done mixing it up, you give said bowl to the cook, head back to your table and wait for them to cook it up & bring it to you. Most of such restaurants have a deal where you can either do a single bowl, or do unlimited bowls per person for a flat fee, and there were a couple times where I definitely pushed the single bowl limit.
My current record involved a little contest with my coworker on my first trip to one (in which I got hooked to the whole Mongolian BBQ concept). I managed to squeeze in several scoops of rice, chicken and 28 ladles of Kung Pao sauce into a single bowl. My coworker was amazed I could handle that much Kung Pao sauce since he could barely handle 3 ladles
Of course, my stomach hated me for a week after that, but I won 
So yeah, this weekend, I'm gonna treat myself to a nice bowl at Genghis Grill before heading to see a movie
