I'm sick of "All you can eat" resturants.

[Revan]

I'm tired of all you can resturants. I went to an all you can eat resturant yesterday. Chinese. Food was quite nice - but they overcharge. A pound and fifty for some orange juice? Bah.

So I am joining a bulemic forum and one well established in there - start organising day trips to these "all you can eat" resturants. Piss them right off.

I am going to do this to every "all you can eat" resturant there is; run these people out of business. They're annoying and should be fried and eaten with the rest of the crap they serve.

Another way to beat these people at their own game is open a resturant next to it that is the same in every detail, except not all you can eat. Also there is no food. And just pay a couple of employees to fetch all the food from the resturant next door. It would be sweet.

Which idea do you like the most?

You clever soul you. I just hope that the bulimics amongst us do not kill you for the idea that they just eat constantly....I'll try to defend you Darth, but I don't hold out much hope my love!

[The Laughing Man]

I think he doesn't understand that its also all you can drink, and that some people drink gallons of it.....its cheap, then, a pound fifty for a gallon or two of juicy?

[Edinburghemma]

damn, even anorexics can have fun. I am there. I love all you can eat restaurants!

We went to a place on our beach vacation that had AYCE fried grouper and fried mullet.Everytime we would finish off a basket of fish,the waitress would plop another one down on the table.After my family had consumed four large baskets of fried fish I had to tell the waitress "no more,I think I have fish poisoning".Can you get fish poisoning?I was all sweaty,tired,had indigestion,and a late night round of stomach cramps.

[The Laughing Man]

Did you know the average fish contains more mercury than a rectal thermometer?

Would you eat a rectal thermometer??

Well I would!!!

Ah, Mercury. The sweetest of the transition metals...

The problem I have had with most of all-you-can eat restaurants I've been to is that the food simply isn't very good.

There have been a few exceptions, but they are far and few between.

I don't need defending. But thanks for the thought sweet heart.

Hardly random. Do the research.

Zeph's 'I want to eat people' is a classic.

You want to avoid all you can eat places, especially fish-type ones, over weekends especially, and probably Mondays too.

That's when they unload everything that has passed it's "use by" date on the unwary public. Can you say "buffet"?

Best time to go is the day, or day after, they get a delivery. Otherwise, you're dicing with food poisoning.

I live in a university town. Just about all of the non-chain places (and even a few that are chains) are all you can eat places.

Agreed. I think AYCE restaurants are a huge source of contamination. I avoid them like the plague (pun intended.)

Avatar speaks the heh. and another problem I've noticed, when I was in the biz, and more so now, is that they don't know how to properly prepare, handle, or serve the food. The most common thing, on a buffet, is when they go to fill a low product, and they continuously dump the NEW product on top of the OLD, still in the old pan, thereby usually ending up with something nasty at the bottom of that pan or container after awhile......dlb's "contamination"

Actually, that's a good idea. I'm going to get food poisoning on purpose - and if I win on the 5% chancec of living through that - I'll get rich sueing these places. Sweet, I have a third option. Thanks for the idea Av.

That doesn't bother me so much as just watching the people go through the line serving themselves from the buffet bar. I look at the spoon handles and I can't help but wonder how many people who touched the handle before me actually washed their hands before they left the rest room.
