| - This evening I got proof that entropy occurs in the universe. I was driving by the area, was really hungry and decided to have an early dinner in what, until that point, was one of my favorite buffets. Unfortunately I did not have the spectacular feast that I had expected. There were quite a number of misses: among them, the sushi and sashimi didn't have the freshness that I recall from this place, the hot-and-sour soup had a heavy film over it, and a number of dishes were quite dry - the fried chicken, the fried rice, and the sauteed rice noodles, for instance. Other dishes were just OK, particularly those that are hard to mess up, such as beef and broccoli. Nothing was outstanding this time around, and the only thing that kept me from bringing my rating down even lower was that they had fresh oysters, which were quite good; but even then, though they did have these on ice, they also put ice ON the opened oysters and the ice melt diminished the sea-brine flavor of the molluscs. In all, it was just OK but definitely not worth the 12 bucks (incl. tax) that I paid for dinner. I hope that they can get their act together again and become once more the outstanding buffet that I remember.
