Buffets are great, aren't they? Inexpensive, attractive to what my mom would call "healthy eaters" who aren't overly worried about cross-contamination, and an excellent way to try out new foods.

Me? I have an Indian buffet problem. When I eat out for lunch, my go-to places include Udupi, India Garden (both locations), or any of the many other Indian restaurants. And I still miss the now-shuttered downtown Thai buffet with its warm tapioca pudding and wide noodles.

What about you? Do you have a favored buffet location or two that you think more folks should know about? Breakfast, lunch, or dinner, all recommendations are necessary!
