If you've ever been to your local Chinese buffet, and you know the one, it looks like an old Skipper's, Arby's or Dairy Queen, except with only the sign changed out, you need to know that it's not just more than you can eat for $6.99, but it isn't worth it. I don't care how tasty the Kung Pow is, it just ain't the thing you need.These Chinese buffets often have a variety of seafood, but if you're not within line-of-sight from the ocean, you can bet the fish is as rank and frozen as the whole notion of a Chinese buffet in the first place.
Further, and I know I'm not the fist one to notice this, but Chinese food fills you quick, but leaves you hungry again in an easy half-hour. Seriously, think this one through, even at five-bucks a plate.
Next thing is that, unlike other buffets where you feel inclined to load up on mashed potatoes, the sweet & sour chicken is triple-breaded and will fill you up post-hastily with ten cubic feet of empty air.
If you really like Chinese food, remember that everything is "all you can eat", assuming you have the same $10 a head you need to gorge yourself unto sickness. Think of it this way, it all costs them about the same, and you couldn't stuff your innards with even three-bucks of fortune cookies, even if these same cookies give you really great advice, which they absolutely never do.
