“You should never eat at any “buffet” place period. There are just so many things wrong about the buffet dining concept.”
My Mother, her sisters and a brother were teens during the great depression, and they loved buffets over any restaurant.
My sibling, cousins and I finally gave up and would take them to whatever buffet they wanted to go to. My mother gave up her driver’s license, when she turned 85. She kept her 4 passenger Olds sedan for trips to buffets with 4 other seniors at their retirement home. They bought lunch for the licensed driver.
They “buffeted” at least once a week. The buffets would let them take home a lot of “leftovers” for their bridge games after lunch or for a different breakfast the next day.
They all lived into their late 80’s.
