| - My family went out a couple weeks ago on a Sunday $7.00 special.
Taking the money aside, it is a small buffet with a few interesting pieces. The Atlantic Salmon was pretty decent. The desserts are probably the best feature of the buffet.
The omelet station is a bit... interesting? The omelet station shares a space with the Mexican section. I asked for cilantro in the omelet, which is the FIRST thing next to the omelet czar. She tells me that "too many people are allergic to cilantro, so we cannot do that. The pans are not cleaned out in between omelets."
My parents are vegetarians that eat eggs. My mom was standing next to me, so i inquired about how ham, bacon & sausage can make it on omelets. What if someone wants a vegetarian omelet? She says "That's different. No one will get sick from eating meat." I honestly felt like walking away from the stupid omelet while the lady reams me up one side and down the other over how ham and bacon in an omelet is much different than cilantro. She would have gotten a $2.00 tip from me. I'm certain it was worth it for her to chew me out than give me 2ยข worth of cilantro.
For the dessert, they had one of my favorites, lemon meringue pie. However, they were only serving it in Sugar-Free. My family does not do aspartame. I asked if they have regular lemon meringue, the employee tells me it is all the same and to just take that. They will put out the sugared version later.
So, I suppose Jews & Muslims who do not eat pork will not get offended by eating an omelet from someone just before them that ordered a ham & bacon omelet? But if I ask for cilantro on top of my omelet, the CDC will come in and quarantine the whole place for allergies?
So, we have people that believe sugared desserts and sugar free are essentially the same, and an omelet person who believes it is ok to make a bacon & ham omelet, not wash the pan, and ask the Jewish man what omelet they would like... and argue loud enough over cilantro to have the YelpWorld wonder WTF.
If it was priced at more than $7.00 for the buffet, I'd have been offended. I suppose if you just want some cheap eats and have some dessert afterwards, it ends up being cheaper than IHOP. However, there are hundreds of better places to go get breakfast.
