| - came here with my parents. my dad loves oysters and the king crab and kept raving about it.
they have a decent selection of food. your typical meats, veggies, and ethnic dishes. i saw that they had prepared a bowl or rice with a piece of kimchi and galbi. haha i thought it was funny since koreans typically dont eat it like that. the king crab was ok for a buffet. there were a lot of small prepared dishes you could take instead of a spoon and take as much as you want. i like that better since dirty grubby hands arent all over the spoons. there was even a tandoori oven. i was impressed but didnt feel like eating indian.
their desserts section was pretty nice. ice cream, gelato, and a less than happy desserts station guy to give me a small scoop of cookies and cream.
my parents pointed out that a lot of the employees seem to be "hiding" or not really manning their stations. i dont know if its due to the "shelf" or "wall" that pretty much separates you from them. i have to look through holes to see them or get their attention. but i did notice a lot of them on their phones. hey, candy crush is addicting...
the most impressive part of the buffet i found to be were the sliced cured meats. i forgot the names but one was similar to prosciutto, another was more fatty marbleized, salami, and some kind of bologna. i didnt care for the bologna but i ate a whole mess of the other slices.
i dont understand why people goto expensive buffets to eat pizza, pasta, and drink a whole mess of soda... at that point seems like you should just goto an $8.99 buffet (which gold coast has an excellent buffet for the price).
other than the king crab and cured meats, i wouldnt come back here to eat at the price even with my parents senior citizen discount. i also clenched my butt cheeks as i pulled out into las vegas blvd making sure i dont see any range rovers and maseratis. i hate driving down to the strip...
