Of course, the couple he cut in front of were not enthused with the interloper and attempted to take their rightful place. We’d been standing in front of the same couple for two and a half hours, and this guy just appears. ***On a side note, once we had paid and moved toward the “wait here to be seated” gals, a man suddenly appeared in line behind us. Next time I want crab legs, we’re going to Red Lobster.

Oi vey! I can say with certainty that, while the food was good, we will NEVER do that again. and the only place we had been was in line at the buffet and eating dinner. The others, not so much!īy the time we made it home, it was 10:15 p.m. I finally settled on green apple gelato, which tasted like a green apple Jolly Rancher.

I forked into the beautifully marbled cake in it’s own little recycled tin and didn’t bother biting. The first two dessert picture on the left are the desserts that did NOT take the cake! I took one bite of cannoli, one bite of sugar-free cheesecake, a nibble of a cakeball (which I promptly spit into my napkin), and a lick of the creampuff. I was surprised, then, by how lackluster the desserts were. Of course, I had to have fresh salad, so I piled mixed greens, fresh strawberries, fresh pineapple, and steamed shrimp on a plate.ĭinner was delectable. I scooped up some greens, a fillet of cod and a skewer of shrimp, plus some green beans (turns out, the green beans were WAY too spicy for my palate). Yes, I stood in line for over two and a half hours, then had to WORK for my dinner (cracking them legs)! Whilst Hubs checked out the rest of the buffet. Another hour and a half in line, and we were finally able to pay to wait another ten minutes to be seated.Īnyway, once we had our table (at 8:40 p.m.), I made a beeline for the crab legs. I snapped this picture of Hubs after we’d been in line for a little over an hour. Louis joined the buffet line for all you can eat crab legs on Friday evening. We joined the buffet line around 5:55 p.m.

So, at 5:15 p.m., we left our kids in the capable hands of a sitter, and drove downtown. We’d heard the food was good, and I’d heard the buffet had crab legs on Friday evenings. Neither of us gamble, so we hadn’t had occasion to go before. We’d been wanting to go try the buffet at Lumiere Place, a casino downtown. Hubs and I decided to go on a date night, which we don’t get to do often enough.
