| - I've been to all the major buffets in vegas (Bellagio, Wynn, M resorts), except the new Bacchanal buffet at the caesar. But I will go real soon...
So far, this one is my favorite, the dishes are placed in small containers, which is a nice touch. It's very well portioned, it's small so it allows you to try different things.
My problem with buffets is this: what to eat, and what not to eat. Some people go for what they think is the most expensive stuff and gorge themselves to make it worth it... and there are so many things to try, once you've tried most of what you wanted to try, you're already full.
And while buffets are made for quantity, I like to take my time to try different things, I know I shouldn't eat the salad, but having a balanced meal matters to me so leave me alone if I don't eat the crab legs by the boat load!!!
On the variety side, this place really shines, pretty much all major cuisines represented, from chinese japanese french italian american... whereas most buffets have the whole wall in the back with some station before the wall, most of them only have original items on half the spread, and the items are repeated on the other half of the wall. Not here, the whole buffet is unique, no food is repeated anywhere!!!
Of the few items that people keep talking about, namely angry mac an cheese and bone marrow, I found these item s to be meh. I actually liked the pork sliders, fried oysters, rib tips, parpadelle, kim chi fried rice, crab salad, mushroom salad...
The pasta was fresh and had good texture, worthy of an italian restaurant!!!
Kim chi fried rice was so good, I actually had seconds, I know I know don't eat rice at a buffet!!! lol
Sadly I never finished sampling the whole spread and was actually full before I tasted all the stuff I wanted to try. On the dessert side, I really like the coconut flan, and the thai iced tea gellato. And never before seen is the chesse plate among the dessert spread, very nice touch.
I had a total of 6 plates, which is 3 plates more than I usually have. nice Buffet I would definitely go again.
