Wear riot gear if you're going to try to eat crab legs.

The commercials always had this kid with a chest full of fake gold coins and I thought they would have that there.

I was disappoint.

Wait a sec.... Whenever I went they had the fake gold coins, rings and shit like that for the kids. I still have some somewhere.

what's it called?

Not even clear what the name is. They haven't spent money on a sign. The 2 families running it have regular day jobs and just enjoy cooking for folks.

Yep, that's about right.

Plastic rings with giant plastic rubys, etc.

each kid could take a handful home.

99% of all Chinese buffets are CRAP with 1,000 gallons of MSG and American style Chinese food

There are only a few places to get truly good to great buffets:
  • Most newer Las Vegas casinos
  • Indian Buffets in places like Silicon Valley, Wash DC, and New York
  • Korean/Japanese style with sushi in places like Silicon Valley, Wash DC, and New York, very different and much better than Chinese
  • Many upscale Country Club Golf Courses

I've never seen a high quality buffet outside of these four types and don't confuse QUANTITY over QUALITY!

Indian Buffets, now there I WILL 'fill up' on rice.

Saffron and cardamon infused basmati.

Or Kheer, the rice pudding dessert they have.

I'll even 'fill up' on bread, when it's nan and there's mango and/or mint chutney around.

But then their entrees/offerings are relatively healthy fare.

The last "buffet" that made me say "WHOA" was the one in the Diamond Club behind home plate at the Royals games. They have an actual top notch buffet for rich ****s that is un-be-lievable.

I've been lucky enough to enjoy that three or four times in my life.

A buffet for rich people? What do they use for plates, the breasts of a 26 year old supermodel virgin?

As a minor story, I was in Dayton, Ohio, a few years back and had a hankerin' for Chinese food. There was a restaurant near the hotel, so I went over. It turned out to be the largest buffet outside North Korea.* We're talking acres of stuff. You want sushi? They had sushi. Barbecue? The ribs are over on that wing. Crab legs? Jello? Fried chicken? Tacos? Want a caesar salad? Cobb salad? Waldorf salad? Tuna salad? Chicken salad? If you wanted it, you could find it on that buffet.

When I went in, I was in shock at the size, and some old Chinese woman did the Lassie thing to lead me to a seat. There was no pricing anywhere - not a single sign or label in the place - and I was leery. But it was a huge restaurant and it was packed, so I decided that it must be a good deal. So I set my worries aside and had watermelon and dinner rolls and crab legs and broccoli with cheese and some chocolate cake for dessert. When I got my bill it was something like $15. I guess it was like Wal-Mart where they got price breaks from their suppliers due to their massive volume.


* - I'm assuming that Kim Jong Eun has a massive buffet where he eats every day.

Good buffet is why las Vegas was invented. Some of the best buffets in the nation.

agreed, however I believe that the white people at the buffet is more of the great opportunity for them to feed themselves while all the black people are slowly crossing the road.

They have the traffic to do it. To build a buffet in a low traffic area leads to either insane food costs or keeping food on it too long.

Have you seen a Old Country Buffet or a Shoney's? I'm the only white guy in there. It's like going to Red Lobster.

Fact. Part of why I skip buffets. That and the terrible overpriced food.
