Sinus the pineapple structural?
I’m not sure why I’m not surprised it’s about the Chinese one.
Wow if only there was a way to like I dunno, limit the amount by weight or volume or something instead of just ending salad bars entirely due to that pesky self-imposed one bowl rule.
What? It said one salad bowl, so I got one salad bowl.
If you actually eat the thing, it’s fine for me.
Reminds me of those all you can eat sushi places, as long as you finish your plate.
Ppl would just stick the rice under the table, lol.The first time I went to one of those places I assumed they sold sushi by the piece not the roll. The way the menu worked, they gave you a paper menu and whatever you want you write a number next to that item and they give you that many servings. No where on the menu did it say that sushi was by the roll, which i think 8 or 20 pieces. But a serving of hibachi or fried rice was a couple of bites a serving. If all you wanted was hibachi, you could easily order 5. You could imagine my surprise when I saw my order after ordering 1 of every sushi.
Had the same thing with my wife’s sister’s husband. Like,
- Hey have you eaten sushi before?
- Sure!
- How many do you eat? 2? 3?
- Yes, and 4 or 5.
And I ordered plenty of servings. Which no one could eat afterwards. Still make fun of him to date.
You should just order “sashimi” if you don’t want the rice, in buffet place the “sashimi” is just the protein part of the sushi
Most of the all you can eat places don’t offer that to ensure the patrons fill up on cheap rice which saves food costs.
Chinese people in American food restaurants exhibit behavior remarkably similar to American people in Chinese food restaurants. Curious.
It’s the same thing Americans do at American restaurants. Have you seen what people do at Golden Corral?
There is/was a restaurant that offered IIRC $8/1 bowl, or $11 unlimited bowls (this was ~20 years ago). It was called BD’s Mongolian BBQ, the crazy constructions I saw while eating there was ridiculous. Same goes for when we used to have Indian buffets (pre-COVID). I think the most insulting thing was that these were people who based on their dress, and the vehicles parked outside, did not seem to be hurting for money
Sometimes we had company lunches at that place. It was funny seeing the interns and newcomers building masive structures to maximize the amount of food in their plates
Bro you don’t get your bag by eating steak every night, make that buffet trip worth it.
No, why would anyone go to such a cursed place
Ghengis Grill: DO IT
buffet minmaxing
It is in my asian blood.
My mom said no soda because that fills your stomach, also eat all the seafood.
Bruh, can’t I just fucking enjoy a buffet? A Succulent Chinese-American buffet?
Pretty funny, though I’m sure barely anyone would have been doing this other than to make meme photos for social media.
They’ll be stopping it for the same reason Pizza Huts in the US stopped doing it - profit. Not in the sense that people abusing the salad bar costs money - that’s just a convenient excuse - but simply because it takes a lot to keep a salad bar well stocked and fresh, and they did the maths and figured they can make more if all they sell is pizza.
My dad used to do the same thing back when Wendy’s still had a salad bar. He and my mom would get a full meal out of one bowl and he was a big dude (230lb 6’3” construction worker big).
We used to joke that he was why Wendy’s nixed the salad bars.
Respect.
Ah, another nice thing ruined.

I guess veggies are expensive in China?
They could just charge by weight, that would instantly resolve the issue. And it’s not as if scales are very expensive.
Chinese people are very smart

Side note - in the cafeteria at one place where I worked the frozen yogurt was free if you could guess the weight within some small range. I always guessed the same amount, and got good enough at consistent dispensing that I almost always nailed it.
