I never photograph or blog about my Mister's food unless I tried it. He had some of the General Tso's and Pad Thai on his plate (but didn't photograph it), so I tried that off his plate and didn't waste room on MY plate the next go 'round. But, that is truly the only reason I didn't mention what he ate, I usually do not.Foodnatichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12923709027151923011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632360027653480310.post-7246370967193889232011-09-06T11:59:35.041-05:002011-09-06T11:59:35.041-05:00@Amanda - I'm glad you enjoyed it, then your c...@Amanda - I'm glad you enjoyed it, then your cost was certainly worth what you gained. But I personally don't equate volume or variety of food with "good or great" places to eat. In other words, more isn't always better to me. My Mister ended up leaving most of what he got on his plate and as you can see...my son spent most of his time playing with his garbage truck in his glass of water. I believe the only item he consumed from his plate was mashed potatoes, but he wasn't dedicated to them at all. I wish he HAD been and we could have saved ourselves from the toys in the water portion of the evening. But, hey, whatever floats your boat. I knew there had to be enough people that eat there that find it acceptable or they wouldn't be open. I am just one opinion. Glad to hear yours! =DFoodnatichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12923709027151923011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632360027653480310.post-88913815952581962452011-09-06T08:58:23.030-05:002011-09-06T08:58:23.030-05:00Honestly I LOVE this buffet!

By far the BEST in the Ottawa region.<br />I am curious as to how your husband and son enjoyed it, because you don't mention it...<br />You also forgot to mention that kids under 12 eat free ( one per adult) WHich is awesome..I neber have to worry about my kids not eating enough, or being picky that day! ( or teething for that matter)<br />The only buffet you might find better would be a high end one at $40 a person..<br />So you claim that you loved the sushi, mussels and pizza, all for 15$ ( which would be accurate since your bill was $30 and half would be your husbands food right?)<br />So tell me where else you would eat unlimited sushi, pizza and mussels for that price?<br />I love the meat sauce there, and their general tao. My kids love the chicken balls there, that dish is constantly empty and being refilled..so I guess some people out there are enjoying it.<br />My kids also LOVED the selection of desserts, as did I. The brownies were awesome, so was the pudding chameur ( a typical French dessert).<br />I would highly recommend this place, especially to families!!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09390443114447644256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632360027653480310.post-52874885199611284112011-08-05T08:41:14.330-05:002011-08-05T08:41:14.330-05:00@WhisperingWriter - I've still never been to G...@WhisperingWriter - I've still never been to Golden Corral. I don't flog about chains. After a while they get too big for their own breetches and the food quality suffers. The proof is in their ratings. Some of the chains will be out of this world with their food and service but others will have horrible customer opinion. Chains usually aren't consistent enough to impress me. Local chains...sometimes they win me over. But national or INTERNATIONAL (Ahem..McDonalds...) just give up at some point because they've already made a name for themselves. <br /><br />@Cheryl No problem! I loved your blog and the concept! I'm sorry if my review would have kept you from going if you were in this area. I didn't mean to do that. Lol...I tried to leave it open at the end...a little bit of hope that perhaps it just wasn't good on my night. But...it is hard to tell. I haven't heard from any regulars yet. Their rating is a strong C+, but...lol...passing isn't good enough for me. I was a straight A student in high school and college/university. Passing isn't always good enough...just like free isn't always good. =)Foodnatichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12923709027151923011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632360027653480310.post-21366849444596942882011-08-04T20:46:28.650-05:002011-08-04T20:46:28.650-05:00What an honest, and yet very kindly worded, review...What an honest, and yet very kindly worded, review.
