Village Pizza & Pub Review – Elgin, IL
Village Pizza & Pub has two locations in the NW suburbs of Chicago, one in Elgin, and one in Carpentersville, not terribly far from each other. Both feature extensive menus (below) for dine in, carry out, catering, and delivery, and the Elgin location has an all you can eat buffet at midday, Monday through Friday. […]

Old Warsaw Buffet Review, Chicago, IL
Old Warsaw Buffet Review Chicago’s rich melting pot of immigrants makes for some really good eats, often time at a real value as well. There are many, many Polish restaurants like the White Eagle, where food is served family style. Check out Czech grub at the Czech Plaza. Whatever you like, whatever you’re curious about […]

Bigfoot Inn Review, Harvard, IL
There’s a burg on the Wisconsin/Illinois border, on US 14, about halfway between Chicago and Janesville, WI (home of JerkInChief Paul Ryan), or halfway between Rockford, IL and Milwaukee. Name of the town is Bigfoot. No relation to the legendary monster whom we never see, because Noah didn’t let him on the ark. Along with […]

Pizza Hut Buffet Review
As a regular reader, you know I try and find positive things to write about every time I stop someplace. Spoiler alert: not here. I’ve been in a Pizza Hut maybe three times in the past ten years, once in a small town in Western Kansas, the place was filthy, the pizza worse. I liked […]

Rural New Orleans Seafood Buffets
(This is from our archives, check on whether they are open before making the drive). I am in buffet heaven, if there is such a thing. I’ve previously written about a couple; I hit the other two “main attractions” in the past few weeks. Number one, in all manners of speaking, was the House of Seafood […]

Berrys Seafood and Catfish Buffet, Florence, MS
I’m not ashamed to say I like AYCE buffets. Especially at breakfast, where I often find my plate full of a half dozen different processed pork breakfast meats and little else. But I also like seafood buffets, and I stumbled into a doozy in Southern Mississippi, 12 miles south of the State Capital on Highway […]

Supreme Lobster Appetizers
Had an occasion to need appetizers this week, but didn’t have time to make them. A local Chicago company, Supreme Lobster and Seafood, sells quality heat and eat appys to bail you out of just such a jam. Picked up their bacon wrapped scallops and their lobster rangoon won tons. Both could be ready in […]

Teppanyaki Grill & Supreme Buffet Review – Fridley, MN
Spoiler alert: Best……Asian…….Buffet…..anywhere……..The Teppanyaki Grill & Supreme Buffet doesn’t actually offer Teppanyaki (cooking at the table), but there’s not much else it misses. It has one of the largest selections of food I’ve ever encountered in one of these places, including every kind of seafood, noodle, rice dish, soups, American foods, a custom grill where the […]

Chi-Chi’s Corn Chips Review
For a time, back in the day, Minneapolis (of all places) was a hot bed of Americanized Mexican restaurants. A local restaurateur, Marno McDermott, founded a fast food chain called Zapata (later Zantigo) which gave Taco Bell a pretty good run for the money,and was eventually assimilated by various Taco Bell parent companies and vanished.
