The Hungry Buddha is Closed

The Hungry Buddha -- 1403 Washington Avenue
If you find yourself downtown anytime soon or on Washington Avenue on the weekend, check out this cool stir fry restaurant, right next door to the Tangerine and owned by the same guy. Go in and have a bite after your done dancing in one of the clubs downtown, after all the Hungry Buddha is open from 2AM - 6AM on Fridays and Saturdays!

For starters, this is not your normal stir fry. You are given a bowl and allowed to pick your stir fry items from a food bar. Go ahead, fill the bowl to the brim! Give your bowl to the cashier and tell them if you would like Beef, Chicken, Pork, Shrimp or Vegetarian and what type of sauce you want it cooked in. You have your choice of sauces too: Thai Peanut, Coconut Curry, Chinese BBQ, Sichuan (HOT), Black Bean Garlic or Sweet and Sour. Have you had enough yet? I hope not, because now you need to decide whether you want this over Rice, Noodles or Broth!

The list of stir fry items is huge!
