Kings Buffet, Brantford, ON

There are no restaurants near the hotel where I'm staying.

Since I saw the Mandarin Restaurant on Undercover Boss Canada a couple weeks ago, I've been wanting to go.  While trying to figure out where to have supper this evening, I saw Kings Buffet was a ten minute drive away from my hotel.  It brags that it's the "Biggest Buffet in Brantford" so I thought I'd check it out.  I didn't bother changing out of my comfy stretchy pants and off I went!

When I arrived, I thought it was ironic that there was a Curves and a 24 hour fitness gym in the same plaza.


When I got there about 5:30pm, it wasn't very crowded.


I took a stroll around to see what they had.  If you like crab legs, there were quite a few dishes with it.

Sushi bar ... not for me, thanks!
Sushi
Veggie, coleslaw, boiled eggs, etc.
Pizza and garlic bread
French fries, chicken fingers, gravy, etc.
Dumplings
Dessert
Ice cream
Fruit
They brought bacon-wrapped filet Mignon around to the tables ... it was okay
My dessert plate

The food wasn't great.  Considering it had been open for more than an hour before I got there, a lot of stuff was cold or warm, not hot ... it had been there for a while.  And it didn't taste great either.  Usually I find something that's amazing and go back a couple times for it ... not here.  The best part was the slice of lemon meringue pie, which wasn't made in-house.

At the end of the meal, Jennie brought a warm damp towel and a fortune cookie.

My fortune
"Someone around"?  Who???

I won't be back.

Aww, that's a bummer. But at least now you know.

There's this new Chinese/Thai/Japanese all you can eat on Queen Street East that I've been eyeballing. I can't remember the name of it, but it looks good. In case you're willing to give another Asian buffet another go ;)
