My grandfather was a child/young teen in occupied Holland in WWII. Any celebration, any birthday, any family visit, was held at the Mandarin Buffet. Even on holidays he would find the buffet to take us all to. For him, to be surrounded by food, and his family with full bellies, was the pinnacle of true happiness
Buffets for me changed. When I was younger, id try to eat so much. Now, it's a place to invite people where everyone should get something they like
Exactly, I like them more for variety than volume.
I always remind people they cost about the same as a regular meal so don't go overboard
fair but i refuse to let capitalism win
Same. I like selecting what I want or to sample something new.
It was so good though 🥲
no sentence has ever made me feel more second hand victory and happiness than "we beat them by $80". I still very much exist in the scarcity mindset of my impoverished upbringing (which has been worse over the past few months due to a bout of unemployment) so it feels impossible to get out of the habit when I go to ayce of eating until I'm sick and about to throw up in order to get my moneys worth and "beat" the resteraunt. That said, part of what has helped me is to pivot from quantity to quality and just being okay with "beating" them by ordering enough of the most expensive items to surpass or double how much I paid, which is usually achievable without eating till I'm sick at ayce sushi.
I haven't gone to a buffet in 40 years. Got wildly -- like hospitalized -- sick after an especially colon-wrecking Golden Corral experience. 1981. It was a very good year.
Well they have a thing called health inspectors now. So they are much better.
Seeing as I go to Golden Corral at least once a month.
Good god that sounds awful?!!! Hope you’re okay now 😭
That’s 43 years ago 😂
Health inspectors are nothing new, been around over a century. LOTS of places get through the cracks though and on a state by state basis there are major disparities. Some cities you can trust just about any restaurant, while others everything is a gamble@@wolftitan
@@wolftitanDunno abt that 😭 i know at least 3 ppl who've gotten food poisoning specifically at golden corral in the past decade
I 100% agree an Indian buffet is the best. Particularly if hungover.
My grandpa loved buffets. When we were kids he'd always take us to this local chinese buffet (oh the stories I could tell about how my cousins would always mess with our food/drinks like putting hot sauce in the ketchup or sprinkling salt in our drinks when we got up from the table). But that place had long closed down. One of his last birthdays, he wanted to spend it with all of us but he loved buffets, so we went to Home Town Buffet. We had the party room since it was all of his kids, grandkids, great grandkids. There were uncles, aunts, cousins, nieces, nephews...all of us turned up for his bday that year. We got a cake with his image imprinted on it from when he was in the military and it made him cry. Sadly our Home Town Buffet closed down (It's a Texas Roadhouse now), but buffets will always have a special place in my heart because of him.
This whole episode helped me remember how, some of the best times with my family were spent at an Old Country Buffet. Gracias. Thank you. 🌈🌞💐
Is it hot outside?
Do you like ice cream sundaes?
Oh, I loved Old Country Buffet! We got "kids eat free" coupons frequently when I was little. I was so sad when the last one near me closed 😢
@@spoonfulofsaltthat was my favorite ayce as a kid. (mainly bc they had the chocolate milk dispenser) I was so sad when it closed BUT the town where my great grandma lived had a Ryan's which was under the same umbrella so that made it a little better
Buffets have always been a "family gathering" type place for me and my family. Growing up we went to CiCi's on family visitation days and whenever we would visit with my great grandmother we would go to Ponderosa. Now that I'm older the entire extended family gets together almost every year and goes to the Grand China buffet, I think it's the biggest Chinese buffet in the state and I absolutely LOVE it.
I think the biggest appeal to a pizza buffet like CiCi's is that you can have a selection of a wide variety of slices. Even if in value the amount you're getting is about the same, the draw is having access to a lot of different slices instead of just one or two. It's great for trying new things without having to worry about buying something you won't like or even getting a couple slices of something you like but don't love so you never order a full pie of it. Like I'm never going to want a full pie of Mac'n"cheese pizza but a slice or two every now and then is fun.
Man I worked at a Golden Corral for 3 years in high school. I’ve seen everything from people shitting on the bathroom floor to people eating till they projectile vomit in the dining room.
😱
i miss sweet tomatoes...i went to one the month before it shutdown for good. Sigh. I loved the endless salads.
🥹 I loved Sweet Tomatoes. Omg, they need to come back! ❤
A friend of mine went to one that is opening April 1st, all you gotta do is go to Tucson Arizona
Same. That was one of our go-to places when I was growing up.
souplantation fueled my childhood, also prob the reason why i tend to have such a massive appetite...
I haven’t thought about Sweet Tomatoes in a while, wow! My mom visited there a couple times with coworkers and it shut down before she could take us there lol
Love me a Chinese buffet. One of my favorite memories is the one time I went to an old country Buffett. I was 4 plates deep when I discovered an entire shelf dedicated to pie. Core memory
Recently discovered how vaguely defined a “sundae” is when I tried to make a Maundy Thursday Sundae for the wordplay
What is/isn’t a sundae?
To me a sundae is just ice cream with toppings basically.
Sundae is also the name for a Korean blood sausage, commonly eaten with rice cakes (tteokbokki)
As a Pennsylvanian, I immediately thought of Shady Maple, and was impressed Josh said Lancaster correctly!
Josh is from PA
How can you mispronounce Lancaster?
I love these late night post times because I’m always getting off work right around this time. Perfect thing for the drive home.
Late night ?????? Where are you? It’s 6 am over here in East Coast ( US )….. off topic:; when does late night turn to early morning 😂😂
He's on the West Coast buddy. Remember it's a huge ass country.
I always thought it was interesting that even though they have been in PST so long they still post everything around 6 am EST since that is how it started. I enjoy it as a CST person. 🤷🏼♀️
I remember skipping school to go to Shady Maple with my friends and absolutely destroy ourselves. It's an absolute experience and love the PA Dutch shout out haha
When I was in high school, there was an ACE sushi place with a lunch special. It was like $10, unlimited sushi rolls you had to order and a tempura bar. Where they really made their money was on drinks, charging $1 for each uneaten piece, dessert, or people who wanted some meat or soup with their sushi. It was great. Sadly, it no longer exists (not a failed business, but a victim of a developer buying up the block to turn it into apartments).
There was also a Mongolian bbq place not far from there (also since a victim of development). It was ACE, and fairly cheap. When it opened, it was $5 if you wanted just the one serving, or $15 for ACE (which included dessert and non-alcoholic drinks). BUT, there was also a $10/15 minutes charge for the table after the first hour. FOod was objectively mid. But, we loved it as kids.
I live in NC. There is/was a small chain of pizza buffet places called Village Inn Pizza Parlor. One of the last places I remember with a smoking section.
Cici's pizza was gross, but the village inn was decent. Always variety too. Lots of different kinds of pizzas.
Pizza. Pasta. Salad. Soup. Spaghetti. Chilli. Garlic bread.
Great dim mood lighting.
Kids ate like $3 cheaper. My uncle said I was 11 like long after I was 11.
Btw. Most excessive American buffet thing I ever did? As a teen, on my plate was:
Fried chicken, steak, shrimp, pizza, biscuit cornbread, chocolate cake, okra, bacon, all covered in gravy. Ate it all. Got sick. No regrets.
I’m from NC and I concur. Cici’s was so gross. We still have Village Inn’s and it’s great but the price has certainly changed significantly as have everything!
You covered the cake in Tracy?
Gravy
What part of NC has this? I've never seen it in the triangle area. Sounds good.
@@lavenderoh There is one in Hickory/Mtn View area which is brand new. There is one in Viewmont and one in Taylorsville NC. If you are familiar with any of those areas.
I’ve never been so proud to be a Pennsylvanian, Shady Maple represent
I spent 8 years in Korea. Advice:
1. Go to Korea for Korean BBQ, its all frozen and sold at 100 or 300 grams, when you order, it is prepared.
2. Watermelon is a drink, if you cut the wind off, blend and strain the insides and add the juice back into the melon shell and 2 or 3 bottles of Soju added. It's the best.
Just went to an all you can eat pork BBQ place near Pyeongtaek Jije station last week. Fresh pork, all trayed and wrapped up in a fridge that you grab yourself to take back to your table and cook over coals. Fantastically, only 15,000 won per person. Although the draft beer was 5000 a mug.
There's a lot of variety in Korea beyond the most common stuff, which what you described is the typical experience.
My favorite place is pricy but, serves fresh, never frozen Korean hanwoo beef out in the Majang Meat Market where you can purchase directly from a butcher then take it straight to a nearby bbq.
The content this channel has been putting out lately is fire 🔥
When I was in Douglassville Georgia a few years ago we ate at a All You Can Eat Soul Food Restaurant. Named Just Like Mama's.They had all my favorite things. Fried Green Tomatoes, Black-eyed peas, 3 styles of Corn bread, Chitterlings, Fried Catfish. Needless to say 5hey had over 100 items on the buffet. I was introduced to Chitterlings when I was 19 it was good but smelled pooppy when I Han them at that buffet and they didn't smell even a little bit. Needless to say my three week stay in Georgia I ate there at least four times it was the best.
Comedic timing of my life that my family is going to Golden Corral for our Easter lunch lolololol
I grew up near a Cici's Pizza. Every church and school function was spent there. The pizza was actually good because you could customize your pizzas and they would bake them fresh. The dessert pizzas were the bomb.
My church growing up would do a smorgasbord every year. Minnesota of course. Also the food is good! Just....be careful around the fish...
L U T E F I S K
Hot hard boiled egg sandwich. Bread, mayo, fresh hard boiled eggs, still hot you can barely slice them, onto the bread, salt and pepper. So good!
That sounds amazing
It's hot egg salad. Some people like hot potatoe salad too
@@bonniestewart429 Almost as good as hot potato salad 😋
For me, the problem is the sanitation/food safety. I have worked in a place that had a salad bar and I will never eat food off something similar ever again!
I grew up in a military home, which meant we moved every 2-5 years. Until I was 16 we lived entirely in the southern U.S. - Arizona, Texas, new Mexico, Louisiana, Alabama - Golden Corral country. That was our once-a-month treat, Golden Corral. It was exciting and fun and one of the few times I could eat whatever I wanted, without catering to what the rest of my family wanted. Moving to Alaska when I was 16 was the worst culture shock ever, plus - NO GOLDEN CORRAL??!!! WTF??!! Yeah, it was a dark time.
Covid took our local ACE too, it was called Asia Buffet and I loved eating there. Was around the same price as a fast food combo meal, but it was ACE! And I liked the architecture too. I went for the crab legs though...I remember not too long after they first opened(they were R&G Buffet then), my mom and I went there with a family friend. I don't remember how much crab legs my mother and I ate collectively, but our friend was just kind of staring at us in 'shock and awe'. They might have asked us if we ever eat at home.
I remember Solvang. Haven't been back to California in over twenty years.
I grew up in Portland, Oregon. We used to go to North's Chuckwagon or King's Table Smorgasbord.
when i was a kid, my mom would take us to the old country buffet like at least once a week.
"we forgot to talk about the greatest buffet of them all"
"Friendship?"
lmfao
I almost fell over when you mentioned Shady Maple! Hi from Central PA!!!!
This is coming from someone who loves egg salad sandwiches and hard-boiled eggs. If someone EVER ate old hard-boiled eggs in my car, they would be walking home. There is no worse car behavior than eating stinky foods in someone else's car without their permission.
Hard boiled eggs are best at room temp, or slightly warm. I like to shred warm hard boiled egg into my salad. The added element of warm softness, in comparison to the crisp, cold veggies is lovely. I also slightly undercook my hard boiled eggs. They are solid, and not jammy, but I never, ever have the nasty green halo on my yolks.🤗🤗🤗
seconding hard boiled for sallad, but i gotta have that jammyness on my toast, and with some cheese that gets a bit soft from the warmt. i love an egg/mayo/cheese toast and thats my controversial opinion.
Shout out shady maple!!! I grew up in Lancaster and lemme tell you it’s soooo good. We’d always go for my softball banquets and it was magical
floats at Souplantation could work, but they had milk and fresh strawberries, so I'd mash up some berries, mix in some milk and fill the glass with softserve for my handmade shakes. If the berries weren't good, I'd use the caramel sauce.
The whiplash I had when you said Shady Maple. I grew up in Lancaster and it I'd a staple! Free buffet on your bday!!
CiCi's was pretty amazing, the pizza slices were small so you'd basically be getting full off a variety of sampler pizza
Buffets are all about variety... You don't want a $30 steak dinner. You want a $5 steak dinner, $5 worth of snow crab legs, with a $3 bbq chicken kicker, $4 worth of mac n cheese, a $0.10 dinner roll, and $1.50 worth of dairy-free soft serve with year-old sprinkles on it, all for $27.98
Here here! 🥂
For me, buffets are so I can choose what I want. Instead of how much I could eat.
My go to at Souplantation after the salad, was at least one bowl of soup (varied by seasonal selection,) a sweet potato, at least 2 bread selections, mac & cheese loaded with the bacon & green onions for the baked potato, & sundae with swirled soft serve. Drinks some coffee & a spritzer with one of the flavored iceteas & soda water.
The only buffet I am willing to participate in is a champagne brunch buffet. No sneeze guards necessary. 8:05 but I do miss Souplantation/Sweet Tomatoes. For me, it was about the salads. No other salad joint has the plethora of options. None. Houston used to have them, but no longer. I grew up eating there, in San Diego. I miss so much about SoCal. texas is a nightmare. 26:36 Indian buffets are the exception. I have never seen anyone poisoning the food with their germs at an Indian buffet. Yes.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Currently living in San Diego. If it makes you feel any better, they are all gone here too now
In San Diego, I always loved going to the original location on Mission Gorge RD, it was always well kept by the staff. The La Mesa location on Fletcher was always a disaster.
@@cryptiddyI'm sad the person who was going to resurrect it here in El Cajon, got part way and then decided on Arizona instead. 😢
Around the world buffets exist in the UK - and it's brilliant. A quick stop in Italy, then some Brazilian BBQ, a bit of tikka masala, oh they have Swedish meatballs! 😄
Omg the sweet tomatoes table card 😂 “I’ll be ripe back! / See you next thyme!”
I mostly have water with my meal, including another beverage. The water is a palate starter and cleanser, as well as a quencher.
Josh def has Nissan Altima energy
i cant stand places that have a supposed all you can eat. but when you eat too much they get mad or throw you out. like, then dont claim to have an all you can eat buffet. its really that simple
28:17
It was kinda sorta a Seinfeld episode. That's how the restaurant started, but Jerry talked the owner (Babu) into making it a Pakistani restaurant and THAT'S when it failed.
24:30 hilarious sketch and brilliant character
Love the necklace Nicole ❤
I always do my egg salad deviled egg style plus celery, onion and dill pickle.
Used to go to buffets when I had a major carb-burning experience (big workout session or mowing front and/or back yards), but it lost appeal for me not long before COVID hit. Now I try to eat smarter and healthier, though I might eat an eel roll as an appetizer before I eat a main entree at a Japanese restaurant. Or a vegetable appetizer before a main dish at a ramen place. Recently tried a Korean Barbecue place that was all-you-can-eat, but just to try the bulgogi they had on their online menu. Two types of bulgogi and little side dishes, and all because I never did a deep-dive into Korean cuisine.
covid shut down my fave buffet place: a combo sushi and chinese place that was ayce from 12-3 on weekdays. rip china star, you were a real one.
Growing up I remember going to this all-you-can-eat buffet called Fresh Choice which was so good and was basically what Sweet Tomatoes is but in my opinion just better because the food just tasted better. But what was interesting was there was a local sweet tomatoes that my family would frequent from time to time and moreso after fresh choice closed down in 2010. And i just learned today that I guess for whatever reason, Souplantation is only used for southern california and sweet tomatoes is used everywhere else.
Shady maple is in Lancaster . Lived there for a few years . Loved going to the fresh Amish markets .
When I was in Orlando, I went to a Golden coral, ate a cookie with macadamia in it, got an allergic reaction, spent a night in the hospital 🥰
My dad used to take my sister and me to Hometown Buffet all the time when we were little kids, fond memories. :)
I’m the only person I know who eats AYCE correctly. That is, I get what I want to eat, not what costs the most.
That you know, sure.
I always start out with a large and varied salad. That right there is nearly as much as the cost of my lunch. Places charging $7-8 for iceberg, tomatoes and a few shreds of carrot!
Then, damn the torpedoes, I'm having what looks tasty and that often involves vegetables. If they have seafood, I will get more than my money's worth but it is not my main objective.
Reno has a crazy amount of AYCE sushi restaurants.
Can't take advantage of them like I used to, but can still comfortably break even whenever we go.
I grew up poor so when we had the rare chance to eat out it was almost always at Golden Corral- seated right in the middle of the smoking section 😅
This is sadly reminding me how all the sweet tomatoes in my area got closed down,genuinely don’t know why, use to love going there when I was younger.
man, i LOVED New Town in Burbank!
I'm sure that Mythical, Inc. HATES the Babylon Bee, but the greatness and (sadly) scarcity of Sizzler is something you both agree on. I bet it would be an awesome collab :)
My favorite pairing is a whopper and an ice cold rolling rock(bottled).
In the late 1990s and early 2000s I lived in south Jersey and would go to a different all you can eat every day of the week. Even on Sundays there was an all you can eat omelets and pancakes.
So much love for AYCE KBBQ-where’s the love for AYCE Hot Pot? 😭😭 also while I’m sharing room temperature takes, boiled eggs are best slightly warm, cut in half, with a small dollop of kewpie mayo, romesco, or pesto on the yolk.
Nicole is incomparable ;)
I recently went to a buffet, ate so much my stomach hurt. On the whole, not a good day.
Ponderosa was my favorite in my early 20’s, I kinda miss them. We don’t have too many buffets around here anymore, one of my local Chinese buffets switched to takeout only after the pandemic, the other is still up and running
Shady Maple is truly the best. A touch pricy, but the quality is top notch. You'd be doing yourself a disservice to be in the area and not visit it. There's many other Smorgasbords in the area too like Miller's.
Hi Josh and Nicole
A lot is happening with vegas buffets. Many have shut down and been replaced with food halls akin to higher quality food courts. It's an interesting change that for sure improves the bottom line of the casinos (especially station's) but it takes away a lot of the deal aspect of it for consumers while keeping the variety.
Its not great and station casinos changing it was a big loss, especially for local families.
I don't frequent buffets much anymore because I just can't eat enough to make it worth it (literally eat less than my 3 yo niece). I do Love a good Kalbi buffet (don't have one near me, it is just a fond memory from living in Korea). I SO miss Sweet Tomatoes! They just reopened the first Sweet Tomatoes in Tucson! Hopefully it won't take long for them to get them opened back up across the country. :)
I can not eat a lot at one time but I like buffets because I don't have to decide on one meal, I can eat a bite of a variety of dishes, while others gorge themselves!
We have an Amish all you can eat called Yoders. Great eating
As a kid, buffets were always fun for the sheer variety of things you could choose from... which was nice when you weren't used to having good home-cooked food and knew you could get something you liked.
As an adult, these are just sad reminders of a lingering scarcity mindset and sense of mortality. One spends more to eat less because they get sicker faster and feel less satisfied in the end.
There aren't even many out here anymore. When we are around a Golden Corral, the price seems too much to not just go somewhere you want to be.
Saying this as we ended up at the Chinese buffet on Easter, which was very busy.
YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!! Shady Maple Smorgasbord IS AMAZING!!!!!! Its 4.5 hrs away from me, but my wife and i take the road trip twice a year. The secret is get there before breakfast ends, so you get the best of both worlds (breakfast and lunch). It's in East Earl, PA
Nicole do you like OSS 117?? I haven't been able to find a way to watch the third movie, only accessible in France + even when i use the hide thingy it still knows
I'm in the USA 😢
"Thin, svelte, dancer's ankles"
TIL: Josh skips leg day
Whenever my kids are good for a week or have an achievement we take them to Golden corral I don't know if it's a reward them or because we hate it that's why they love it so much. They don't eat but two plates but they're so excited to go
Nicole: I'm never going to Arizona. It's too hot.
Arizona, right now: 61 degrees.
"Sweet Tomatoes" is reopening, starting in Arizona.
Water goes with salad.
o.O didn't expect to hear Shady Maple come up on here. Gotta get some more PA dutch food on mythical kitchen. The scrapple on Bert's last meal was cool to see.
I love Golden Corral. I only had it for the first time a year or so ago. The one near me is pretty much always busy so the food never sits around long enough to not be good. It's just good. It's not some amazing place but it's good. and consistent and I can eat so much I can barely breath for like $20.
It's always so strange to me when someone the whole way across the country mentions my hometown. Sometimes i forget that I live between two tourist traps lol.
I went to Shady Maple once for a wedding reception, and their food was surprisingly average.
There was a small pizza buffet chain in my area called Stevie B's. Their food was good quality, decently priced, and delicious. Their arcade was also top notch. Cici's was/is pretty inferior to them, unfortunately. The experience sure is part of what you pay for, though!
Mmm i have a place nearby that serves AYCE ribs and it's the best. Probably a relatively easy one to get your money's worth.
We ate Cici’s pizza all the time growing up and Golden Corral. I have been to an all you can eat sushi once and I will never do it again because it made me hate sushi for months. I could only think of how sick my stomach had felt. I felt obligated to help my group of friends finish what they ordered so we wouldn’t have to pay extra and I pushed myself too far.
All you can eat! The sushi bar by me has 2 sushi chefs who only put out 2 rolls at a time (12-15 types of rolls) and replenishes as needed. 👍
I grew up going to shady Maple! So many memories 😊
We had a Ryan's about... 40 miles away maybe? And every year for our birthdays, our grandma would take us to church, then Ryan's for lunch, then to see a movie. I have very fond memories of that place, and when the one near us closed, it made me very sad. :
20:00 managed buffet is a good compromise between getting one item and getting numerous cheap items.
I live in arizona and personally nicole is so real 😂
We'd go to golden corral just to spend hours eating there. I remember the steaks being good, cooked in front of you, and the chocolate fountain.
In the town I grew up in there was a buffet that was Chinese, American, Japanese, Italian, Mexican.
One question that I often ask people is whether they think salads should be served on a plate or in a bowl.
When it comes to buffets, it's probably best to stick to the popular dishes, they are almost certainly going to be the freshest.
I used to love golden corral lol
The preservation of egg aroma is 100% why boiled eggs are the only egg preparation I don't like. 😂
My god, my friend and I used to go to different buffets every week. For 15 to 30 bucks we could eat a ton of food. There was this sushi buffet where we would routinely put down 50 to 60 pieces of sushi. The most I ever ate was the equivalent of about 85 pieces of sushi.
I was born and raised in Burbank, CA and now I live in Gilbert, AZ. I absolutely love hearing people in California say they don’t like AZ. I’m so sick of all the people moving here. Stay where you are !
Orange soda and vanilla ice cream
Been to Shady Maple like 20 times awesome place.
Their pronunciation of the Korean steak tartare (yukhoy) just caught me off guard. Folks, the closest approximation would be something like (yoo.khweh).
