I ate a Sizzler quite a bit when I had a lot less money and lived near one. It was just a cheap steak place though, or maybe you could get some fried shrimp too if you were splurging. It wasn't good but it was inoffensive. What is this buffet poo poo in the OP? Have they turned into a Golden Corral type thing?

It used to be a cheap steakhouse, no buffet. When I was a kid, I thought it was quite the grownup restaurant. There might have been a salad bar, though.

Golden Corral is a whole another thing, I always like reading about the shooting and parking lot fights in the crime report that happen at the local Golden Corral.

This is also my experience. My parents used to take us there for dinner sometimes. I thought it was fancy. Then my town got an Outback and it blew my pre-teen mind.

We also went to Bob's Big Boy for the breakfast buffet. I would crush soggy bacon and powdered mini donuts like a champ.

I have a Golden Corral that I've been to a couple times. It's pretty good if you're feeling mega gross but there's really no reason not to just go to a Chinese buffet instead since the big ones have basically all the same pizza and fried chicken and macaroni etc stuff plus Chinese food and maybe some 6/10 sushi if you're lucky. Never seen a Sizz in my area, maybe they fill their niche better.

At least they're all better than Sicilys, who wants to eat a dozen different kinds of garbage pizza for the price of just a larger single pizza, smh

In the 80s, the glory days of Sizzler, we were all pretty fit. I mean I was an elementary school kid, I could eat anything and still be rail thin.

Now that I'm a grown rear end man, I'm 5'10 and about 190. I play basketball and tennis when I can but don't work out enough, I'd like to be about 175.

Thank you for your concern about my physical fitness.

Nope.

The other day I mentioned that I had never been to a Chinese buffet to someone, they acted like I was a space alien. Sometimes I fear that I have missed out on a rich American cultural history of eating lovely food in ugly places.

my family stopped at a sizzler once during a vacation. everything was so salty that after about a third of a plate my mouth was burning from all of the salt and i couldn't continue. the family next to us had a 400+ lb teenage daughter who repeatedly shoved food into her face as fast as she was capable of, threw up on the floor, took a minute to recover, then went back to the buffet for more food. her parents didn't think this was unusual and were kind of just "oh ha ha how cute" about the whole thing.

also every 20 minutes or so an employee would walk around the salad bar and use a spray bottle to mist everything with melted butter. who the gently caress butters lettuce
