A Buffet idea

Every buffet I have dined at in any state has requested that you get a clean
plate. Most places have the plates out for you to take. It is a pain if
they don't. You have to wait for the wait person to bring you one.

Here's an idea ... instead of all-you-can-eat, use meal tickets
like at Katz's in New York. You wander through the buffet, getting
your ticket punched for the items you pick up, and then pay
on the way to the dining area.

I am not usually fond of them. They might be cheap, but they aren't always.
And the food is usually not that good. But they can be quick. That aspect
is nice.

What really gets me are those people who just keep going back again and
again and again. Here at the Old Country Buffet it is usually these little
bitty Asian people who keep eating and eating. That must be their only meal
of the week. Either that or they have some powerful metabolisms!

There used to be a restaurant here (now it's something else) with a huge,
big salad bar. I went to dinner with my parents, brother and sister in law.
They were all on the Scarsdale diet at the time. I don't remember the
particulars of it now but they could have salad that day. So we all had the
salad bar and nothing else.

When we went back for seconds (the plates were small), these people at
another table began making rude comments about us saying that we were pigs
and no wonder we were overweight and things like that. They were thin
people. They had not only the salad bar but meals and desserts as well!
Sometimes it's just not fair.

Sky, I am not looking at practical stuff, LOL. As I said, this is
only a hypothetical thing...just an exercise in what one could do to
improve a homegrown buffet operation. Yes, I realize, that if I were
really doing something like this, I would have to consider all that...
But, I am not... I am just thinking of what could make such an
operation into a destination spot?

Sounds like you eat low-carb. How do you make Asian fried chicken? :-)

As I said above, I am NOT looking at cost management or anything. This
is just an exercise in how you would make a really good buffet..one
that has really good food, and would attract people who are interested
in good food.
If I were really interested in doing somethign like this, I would ask
for ideas on those types of things. I am not..so just thinking of how
one would really improve the food.

Don't know whether it's law or inspector policy but all you can eats
around here have signs posted to the effect that you don't reuse your
plate, you take a new one.
