I can never get my money’s worth at a buffet because I just want to eat bread and potatoes
@ardouglass Ooh love a good soup. But yeah basically just a stomach filler 😂
@lynnandtonic right? And lentils! They’re so filling! I need to get a working recipe so I can do it at home instead.
@lynnandtonic I miss my grandparents if only for the way my grandfather would squirrel away rolls and cookies in my grandma’s purse against her will. I think it made them both feel like they got their money’s worth.
@artlung I always think about doing this! 😂
@lynnandtonic I’m pretty sure it was living during the Depression that reinforced the moral rightness of it. I think my grandma mostly objected because his paper napkin wrapping of the goodies was not quite good enough for her liking.
@lynnandtonic I paid like $100 for the buffet at the Wyndham in Vegas and still think about their warm pretzel buns on a weekly basis best $100 I’ve ever spent
@dstaley Oooh I must try these pretzel buns
@lynnandtonic the local Mediterranean buffet has a lentil soup that I can’t stop getting despite being the wrong choice for a buffet. I’ve at least stopped getting a huge bowl with my first plate.
