    It is a biscuit (type of bread roll) with gravy on top of it. Usually it is a pork gravy with either sausage or bacon in it.

      While I am normally a fan of most of those items listed in the picture, the actual food shown does not look very appealing. At all. Everything kind of looks like the stuff you'd find frozen at your local mini-mart destined for a microwave reheating.

        That is why they could sell it for $4.00.

            Perhaps, but you might want to look it up a bit. The US isn't even in the top 5 (we are in the top 10 though).

            That does look delicious though. I'd probably eat it all lol... but I rarely eat much food anyway. I normally have a good diet barring the few outings and such I do with friends.

                      Ya know, just because a Buffet is 'all-you-can-eat' does not mean you have to eat everything. There is no law against leaving some food for others.

                      Just a thought.

                          Anybody here catch a stand-up act by a comedian named John Pinette where he talks about his visit to a Chinese Buffett? After over-extending his stay the owner of the place comes out to yell at him....

                          Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

                            I'm going to Vegas (and the USA) for the first time ever in September. I've heard that the Bellagio buffet is one of the best in terms of value, choice etc. I'm really looking forward to trying it out - but I certainly wouldn't eat one every day.

                            It's that what holidays/vacations are all about? Indulgence and enjoyment on a level which is different from our normal lives.

                            So excited, viva las vegas!

                              When I saw this video, I thought about this thread.
