Thank you, counselor.
Alright Karen, you heard it from your good "casino friend" as well as from me, your "Torquemada."
Has this wisdom percolated into that nappy noggin yet?

That guy should have sneaked the banana under one of his folds of flesh. I take it as a given that someone at a Vegas buffet has mantits.Quote:

By the time my edit went through, your post was already done.Quote:

What, you think it's OK for you to stuff a few rolls into that hideous handbag after dining at Circus Circus buffet?
Today it's rolls, tomorrow you'll pilfer fried chicken and then steak, crab legs and eclairs.

Thanks for clarifying that faux pas, Karen: you're back in my good graces now.
I will walk out of a buffet with small items like fruit or cookies. I won't typically take any of their plates or silverware. Though I probably should if these places are going to hit me with plateage fees.
I have never attempted (and will never attempt) to take hot food or anything substantial out of a buffet.
In general, I don't even like buffets, as they substitute quantity for quality.
Yep, I was surprised the Security Guards nearly tackled the guy and ended up yelling at him over a banana after a buffet, but according to Google, taking ANY food out of a buffet, even something as relatively small as a single banana is considered theft like if you were to go to a grocery store and walk out with a banana without paying for it.Quote:

What are you the forum police? Her gibberish is about as believable as yours. Concentrate on flight schedules to see what planes you can hijack….assfuckQuote:

Sure but you didn't get tackled nor did anyone else. For fruit I imagine you just walk out with it openly in your hand. Maybe you put the cookies away, or at least wrap them in napkins. Little things like that they aren't going to enforce especially if you just paid almost $100. for the buffet. But the primary deterrence I suppose is that it is against policy and the knowledge that it is not allowed.Quote:

I could have gotten the comp or done the room charge for any number of people, but why? if someone is not even going to eat. Most of the time though that friend of mine gets bored watching me eat and gets up to go gamble anyway.
I'd agree with you that a foodstuff at a good restaurant is going to be superior to the identical item at a buffet, for example lobster, crab legs, steak. Fish especially is usually going to be lower quality at the buffet than in a restaurant.
At a high end restaurant the crab legs or lobster are going to be good enough to warrant eating every bit, while at a buffet might just crack the leg open, pull at each end, and leave whatever remains inside alone. Everyone is different though, women in general or at least the girls I know aren't big eaters. My wife and others like her just don't like the idea of wasting food, and barely eat at all. I try to take very small portions of whatever I am taking and try to eat it all, but I'll go through a dozen plates of food at a buffet I exercise hard all the time and burn it up. But in general if you are not a big eater buffets aren't for you.
There are some high quality buffets in Vegas such as at Wynn, or Cosmo. No they're not serving A5 Wagyu, but a lot of their dishes are innovative or just plain good.
The inexpensive Vegas buffets seem to be gone, but when they were around, especially with player card discounts, I'd imagine a local would rather eat at one of those and just pick and choose a few items and leave quickly, versus eat at a fast food place, where the price might have actually been comparable. I don't think there is such a buffet around these days, the last would have been something like for example Palace Station Buffet? Over at GVR, the former buffet was converted into the new high limit.
The real problem with trying to sneak pancakes out of the buffet is that the syrup makes a huge mess in your purse.Quote:

The guy REALLY did say that Security nearly tackled him and then told him off for leaving with a banana in his hand after a buffet! I'm REALLY telling the truth!
To anyone who thinks I am lying about the guy who said he left the buffet with a banana in his hand and Security nearly tackled him and then told him off,

Read them and weep at Posters who said they witnessed similar things. Read in particular about the reply about the buffet guest who got cussed out for doing exactly what the guy I mentioned did.
Are you using “Read them and weep” in the correct context here?Quote:

Let's just chalk it up to a memory that rivals that of AxelWolf's.
While of course this was written about UNKewlJ
in this and countless other instances it applies to you as well.Quote:

What privilege? The guy almost got tackled by Security and got yelled at over a banana being taken out of a buffet. :confused:Quote:

Was going to BS, but taking a banana can be white privilege and his was revoked.Quote:
