[edit] People named Buffet

Regarding the notice at the top "Not to be confused with musician Jimmy Buffett." There's also the famous investor, Warren Buffet; is a disambiguation page linked to from the top of this article appropriate? - RedWordSmith 03:19, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Also a grammar word for repeatedly hitting. see [1]

What is a running buffet? How does it differ from a regular buffet? Edward 18:21, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

Possible one where you don't pay at the end? Slavedriver 16:36, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] MGM Buffet

The buffet at the MGM Grand is world famous? I am quite susceptible to buffets, but when I stayed at the MGM Grand, I do not recall any word about any sort of above average (for Vegas) buffet. - MSTCrow 12:09, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

I agree, the MGM buffet is no more notable than any other buffet in Vegas. The Wynn's is probable the most notable, considering its high price and the quality of the food. However, I changed the passage to be more general.74.140.199.153 17:16, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The MGM Buffet is Pretty Good

Not as good as the Bellagio, Paris, or Wynn ... but is very popular and crowded most days.

[edit] Buffett history link

Food Timeline has some good history on buffet, both the word origin and the food: http://www.foodtimeline.org/foodfaq7.html#buffet

[edit] Europe

Are these less common in Europe than the US? I know an Italian guy that was a little surprised that he could eat as much as he wants and only pay once.

[edit] Desert Biking/Dessert Viking

This comparison seems a tad more of a joke than an actual piece of information. Remove? --Shrapnelwolf 00:14, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
