Who knew?

I just downloaded the remaining photos from my camera, flipped through them, and stopped and stared at this one for awhile.

Dining EXPERIENCE?

Really?

I must have missed the thrill ride or IMAX movie because all I did was sit and eat.

Don’t get me wrong, the Sahara Buffet is a great value for seven bucks.  Some people spend $7 at Burger King.   The barbecue pork chops and prime rib were worth more than 7 bones in and of themselves.

The “experience”, however, involves walking to a food bar, placing food on your plate with some kind of tong apparatus, and returning to your seat to ingest whatever edible compound you procured.  Rinse and repeat.

The buffet is fine, but I think they may be getting ahead of themselves a bit with the grandiose “experience” declaration.

Also, I cannot help but wonder what happens after two hours?

Do they put the clock on you when you sit down, and when your time is up, are you dragged kicking and screaming from the dining area?  Do they break your fingers in the back room and tell you “We better never see your face in this casino again or we’ll bury you in an unmarked grave in the desert”?

All those stories about people being buried in the sand north of Vegas … I wonder how many of them are Sahara 2 1/2 hour buffet diners?

“Please take a clean plate” … what am I, five years old?

Is a new sign at the printer right now having “don’t speak with your mouth full” added to the list of rules?

How would you manage to take “food to go”?  Dump the mashed potatoes into a purse and run off?

I mean … what the bloody hell?

It’s a mid-quality buffet.

I never thought I would see the day when they would get all uppity at the Sahara Buffet Experience.

When it went from a standard buffet to an “experience”, I imagine they had little choice but to keep a tight leash on the riff-raff.

Remember, if you eat at the Sahara, do not, I repeat DO NOT wipe your ass with your plate and put food on it.

Use a clean one.   This isn’t fucking Denny’s.
