My vote is for the restaurant as well... not even my husband (who can really pile away the food) or my 17 year old son (the human garbage disposal) could eat that much TOGETHER! That is a lot of meat.

We go to a buffet that has clearly posted "enjoy all you can eat" and we go to buffets that don't... we understand that those that don't have it posted aren't all you can eat establishments. And you know what? The cost for the All-you-can-eat place is nearly twice the cost... certainly much more than $8.99.
