I love Golden Corral but my husband hates it, he calls it the Hog Trough.
We’ve got an interesting trend going in my neck of the Michigan woods. The economy has been devastated longer than any other state and we’ve lost a lot of good restaurants, but those were on the higher end of the scale. The smaller ones — especially the local joints that serve regional specialties — are doing very well.
A brewery/restaurant that closed seven years ago is set to reopen (Cripplecreek, it was Zig’s). Their offerings are starting small like sandwiches and pub fare, but they hope to expand their menu. So many places are making good use of Michigan’s craft brews in spite of our preposterous alcohol transport regulations.
I know what your husband means.
Our Golden Corral seems to attrack the fattest most obese people in town.
To see them loading up their trays with enough food to feed me for a week is disgusting.
People also load up their trays with food in amounts they can’t posssibly eat and it goes in the trash.
It’s only a ‘hog trough’ if you make it one..............
