U if M, that’s it…it’s by OfficeMax I think, so you can buy a new memory stick and eat at the same time. And the food must be good, since the staff has a small eating cafeteria all their own, and workers bring the same food off the buffet line..very good, not greasy and never busy (I’m sounding like a reviewer now, and a “positive” reviewer now Aaaagggh)

U Garden is too expensive for what you get. I know the place that P3 is referring to (I think); it’s called Kim Huoy Chor, is in the former Embers building just west of Snelling on University Ave W, and it’s $5.95 for all-you-can-eat buffet and contains a minimum of 20 items. The nice part is that they don’t cook too much of anything but rather cook it often, so the food is fresh even if you’re there at like 2 in the afternoon. An added plus is the frequent visit card, where your 11th meal is free, and you don’t have to do buffet either. You pay AFTER and eat IMMEDIATELY as well, which rocks, and poor college kids like me (or any student) get buffet for $4.95 any time of the day versus the normal $5.95 for lunch or $7.95 for dinner. The owners are super nice too, even if we clean them out on a regular basis.

We lead most nations in per capita homicides. Is that a sport ?

Canada 4, USA 1: We suck at everything. Seriously, didn’t America used to win sometimes at sports? I distinctly remember this from my childhood. And I miss it.

I assumed that you were referring to Leo’s Chow Mein on St. Paul’s east side. It’s $5.50 with a drink (the price went up last year). You get your plate, sit down, and people walk around with bowls of food. It’s the best all-you-can-eat ever.

How’s the sesame chicken? That’s always the do or die for me on a Chinese buffet. It’s why U Garden will always be my go-to buffet.
