Looking to do a bit of pigging out this weekend. Know of a decent buffet, anyone? Would prefer a central/city or south of the city location, but am hungry enough to consider just about anywhere that we can keep on eating for a reasonable price.
burp!

Warren Buffet... recently declared
$$'The Richest Man in the World'$$
Bit of a philanthropist as well!
Now that's pretty decent of him I must say!

Charlies went downhill for a while, although last time we went it had good food again. The Glenelg Watermark is pretty good, too. Just wondering if there is something new that we don't know about.

The Buckingham Arms was always pretty good (wrong side of town though)...

Do they still have the donut machine? Might be worth going if they do.

Pity it's not a sit-down buffet, could go a few pie floaters.

One of my first jobs was at the Buck as a dishwasher.
Let me assure you the donut machine got a good workout* from this little black duck.
What I used to do is put Chocolate AND Vanilla icecream in the middle of 3 piled up donuts (this is not separate icecream but choc and vanilla in ONE!)
A supurb dessert.

Agree about the Buck, Charlies isn't in the same class.
