Have you ever been to one? What do you think of them?

I have a love hate relationship with them. I loved them when they first started opening up about 10 -15 years ago,. That turned to hate cuz, lets face it, its not the best quality food.

You have to be tactical though. Avoid all the complex carbs, and go straight for the meats. :joker:

hideous concept, to me an alien way of thinking of food

When you go to them and you realise your in a room full of obese people I lose my appetite and feel gross

My favourite.
There are so many in Chinatown, in London.

Those are the best. Avoid all the rice and noodles though :laugh:

I’ve only been a few times and I get full quickly but if you go to a quality restaurant they still are worth going to.

there are some very mediocre buffets that give them a bad name, but, i once had an indian buffet and it was sublime

Love!

My local Indian does one on a Sunday and it's immense. £12 all you can eat including one free drink (pint for me usually).

I'd be there every week. That sounds great

Never been to one because it would be pointless for me as even if i'm starving i just can't eat large amounts of food .

Last one I had was on a cruise and the food was lovely....Its not something I would seek out in a restaurant though

Haven't been to one since COVID, but I have liked them especially the Chinese one.

I've only ever been to Chinese ones over in Spain, they were handy when the kids were younger because they could just pick bits and pieces. I don't think I ever even came across all you can eat places here in Ireland, not saying they don't exist but I don't know any :think:

Yeah very true and all the big shopping centres on the outskirts have huge free car parks
