We spotted pretty long queue during the opening day, guess a lot of people must be missing the one in Queensbay Mall and now finally it has reopened with new dining concept. The place can accommodate more diners and seatings are more comfortable compare to the one in Queensbay Mall.


One of the highlights of this new restaurant is the Happy Lunch and Super Dinner which is what everyone always looking forward to, where you can enjoy unlimited servings of selected dishes, ingredients, drinks and desserts.

Apart from the usual dishes available, Bar.B.Q Plaza also prepared appetisers and their all time favourite Garlic Fried Rice for diners. You get to enjoy unlimited servings of the fragrant fried rice, salad, kimchi and many more.

For diners who booked for Super Dinner or Happy Lunch, you get to feast on their Gon's Fresh Food Bar where you get to select your own ingredients and cook it on your table. Gon's Fresh Food Bar features about 30 ingredients and you can expect different ingredients every day.

Mushrooms, fresh vegetables and all kinds of fish balls for your selections.

Mussels, clams, prawns and other meats are also available on rotation basis. You can enjoy them as much as you want, as long as it is within the limited dining time, which is 120 minutes(2hours)

Several types of drinks and ice cream are also available for Happy Lunch or Super Dinner diners. You can mix and match your own drinks, or grab favourite drinks like lemonade, Minute Maid Orange Juice, Iced Lemon Tea and so on.
