With this being my second buffet in a month, I’ve learned important lessons, all of them based on the principle that one must be able to eat more than paid for.Here are the things I should remember, and maybe these tips will work for you, too:
1. Do not wear tight-fitting clothes. Looking pretty is not important anymore,it’s the food that matters most!.
2. As ate K said, pace yourself. It’s a marathon, not sprint.
3. Get only a little bit of everything. Then you can come back to get more of what you liked.
4. Do not get similar dishes in one batch. I made the mistake of piling up everything with cheese on my plate:Zucchini Gratin, baked mussels, bagel with different cheeses, and I ended up, well, wanting to throw up. Or maybe that was just that horrible blue cheese…
5. Do not order shakes, or juices, or anything heavy to drink. Saves you money, and leaves more space in your tummy for food!
6. Dessert can be divided in batches. Eating all of the sweet stuff in the end can be overwhelming.
7. Come in big groups. That what makes buffets extra, extra fun!
Happy Anniversary Kuya Manol and Ate K!!!

“As ate K said, pace yourself. It’s a marathon, not sprint.”
Akala ko fast eaters tend to eat more. Suggestion pa nga sa mga nagda-diet to eat slow para konti makain, di ba?
i don’t know why people like blue cheese. hehehe
Pag kumain ka kasi ng mabilis, madali kang mabubusog. So you do it in batches.
Ang panget ng lasa ng blue cheese no?parang panis

Mahirap mag-enjoy kumain kung nakaporma ka. Hindi ka mabubusog talaga dahil inaalala mo ang iyong kasuotan, at kung minsan sagabal pa ito. De numero ang kilos at galaw. Ewan ko sa iba but this has been my experience. Kung casual ang kasootan mas komportable kang kumain.
mas komportable, mas masarap kumain. tapos hindi ka pa mag-worry na nakaumbok kung tyan mo pag busog na busog ka na..

nice tip kat.. isa pa.. kung may rice or pasta.. medyo iwasan mo siya.. kasi mabigat sa tiyan… mahilig din ako sa buffet nung nasa pinas ako kaya medyo alam ko na yung mga style para sulit ang kinain mo… hihihi sarap naman!

If I may add, don’t be ashamed to go back gazillion times coz no one is really looking
Taking it slow is the name of the game.
I wipe my plate clean too. I’m kinda conscientious like you
Right! No rush!
I even sometimes bully my friends into finishing their food. hehe.
