heck yea, rice with ______ = good meal.

While your at it, jlukja, you might as well invest in a second oven so that you can cook your prime rib while the turkey's going.

Junkster, who should really be eatin... working

dude... there's this buffet at the belagio that is supposedly pretty expensive, but hella worth the price... go there. Also, Bally's buffet is pretty good as well.

well, justin, you've come to the right thread to find what you could serve for Turkey Day...

Junkster, who thinks a full course Chinese dinner doesn't sound too bad either

My bro goes to Vegas about once a month and he, and his wife, both swear by the Bellagio Buffet.

I like the Paris Buffet myself, especially at lunch prices.

For lunch, I seem to recall it being ~$20 and good, but not amazing. I guess it's expensive compared to most buffets in LV, but I ate there - as a student.

My family used to get together with a few other families and do a big feast. Potlluck style dinners with lots of people are the best.

No way, the seafood buffet at the Rio is the best in town. Where else can you get all the lobster tails and crab legs you want?
