on every trip to vegas i HAVE to do at least one buffet!
this past holiday weekend i went to the bayside buffet at the mandalay! we stayed at the four seasons at the top of the mandalay so we decided to just go downstairs and grab a quick dinner. the line was long but that was expected-- no surprise there. however they do have these really cool walk up payment machines that allow you to purchase your buffet with card or cash. pretty cool-- except for the fact that you still had to wait in line with the other folks that were paying at the register-- kind of lame. like whats the point? oh wells, the buffet price for adults was around 30 something and i felt that it was worth it. the service was fast with drinks and the place was pretty clean for the amount of people running around in that place.
a hot carving station with prime rib and turkey, a "make your own" pasta bar, crab legs and shrimp galore were the MVPs of this buffet. i know i know, youre probably thinking "of course the asian girl would point out that there was tons of seafood"-- haha yeah dont act like you havent been to a buffet in las vegas and havent seen the groups of asians with a plate in each hand full of shellfish. usually im not a huge seafood person-- like five shrimp and im good, but this weekend i lived up to the stereotype. the only difference is that i wasnt pushy, sneezing over the food or cutting in the buffet line, na mean?
