Jimmy’s World Grill in Peterborough Review
The finest international cuisines under one roof!
Reviewed by Gina Padmore
This week I enjoyed a meal out with my two children and husband to the buffet style restaurant Jimmy’s World Grill in Peterborough.
We parked up in the council car park next door and upon entering the restaurant we were greeted and seated within a minute or so by one of the very friendly waiting staff. This is a large all you can eat restaurant so not the sort of place you’d go for a romantic meal but ideal for a family or a group of friends.
The first thing that struck me was the huge variety of food on offer – they serve just about every cuisine imaginable so even the fussiest of eaters are catered for. Whilst some food is kept warm on hot plates, there are several ‘live stations’ where chefs cook things in front of you such as naan bread in the Indian section and noodle dishes in the Chinese section.
The drinks came quickly – I opted for a peach delight mocktail which was refreshing and the kids had a milkshake each – one Oreo flavour and one Skittles flavour and they were probably the best milkshakes I have ever tasted!
We went up and down to get food several times, opting for a different cuisine each time. The kids absolutely loved being able to get their own food and both ate endless slices of pizza and chips! I particularly enjoyed the curry section – especially the Caribbean goat and kadai paneer. The freshly made peshwari naan was absolutely beautiful too. It was great to be able to try a bit of everything to narrow down to the dishes we each particularly enjoyed.
For dessert there is an ice cream bar with countless flavour sauces and sweeties to choose from as well as a selection of petit fours which looked great. But the kids barely looked at those and headed straight for the chocolate fountain – they had a great time dipping melon and marshmallows!
Overall we had a great time at Jimmy’s and the kids are desperate to go back already!
Rating: 5/5
