Those who are chatting about AYCE is revealing your age ... you're < 35 yo. After that, you just don't get your $$'s worth ... or you go Michelin and it's quality over quantity.

For today's pricing standards I guess it is, that plate of sashimi you got alone would be at least $20 even at a shitty place in Van. Of course worth it is always subjective with food one could say you could have spent $25 a la carte and been full but spent $44 and was still full

Anyone remember the AYCE sushi place that used to be at corner of Cooney/Lansdowne rd? Tokyo something something. It's long gone now, but it was sort of my gateway sushi restaurant experience here in Richmond.

Being a white boy in Calgary, all I ever ate at Japanese restaurants there were teriyaki dishes. This place was where I was finally willing to try California roll and salmon sashimi for the first time lol. Granted, I was still a kid at the time.

I can't tell if you geezers are serious about having a buffet meet.

I'm making up some demographic statistics of you clowns:
Average value of vehicle (market value) - $80K
Average household income - $500,000 ($250K is welfare status now +look at my signature you jackasses)
Average meal (Dinner) - $750

Factoring all that, and wanting to meet for a cheap buffet - not sure if gloating/flexing or mentally ill

Edit: this post is sarcastic and not to be taken seriously.

Oh my, they have a takeout special for their fried chicken hahah.


-probably just one of the few decent items on their menu.

Their fried chicken does not compare with KFC, Churches, chicken lady’s chicken though haha.

If anyone is intersted, there's a really fascinating documentary I watched recently.

All You Can Eat: Secrets of the World's Largest Buffet

It's fascinating how they operate this place. So much food, so much variety, and how they make it financialy viable. Essentially it comes down to buying power.

Oh I remember being FOB my uncle would take us to “unco Wally” every weekend. Endless roast beef, honey glazed ham, soft serve ice cream and jello. Oh and don’t forget about the 2nd hand smoke at the very end.

That’s why I love you toys. Even though you’re all rich and successful as fuck, you would come sit with this hood rat geezer at uncle Willy’s eating ghetto chicken that’ll probably send us all to the shitter

Good god no, skip Uncle Willy's. We went a year ago with the wife's friend's when had the same idea for a nostalgic cheap buffet with all our kids.

It was gross. Everyone agreed it sounded good on paper but yeah, never again.
