Living Large Tonight...

[Munchkin]

I will be stuffing my face with shrimp and crab tonight at the Main Street Station seafood buffet. I have not gotten a free seafood in years. It just doesn't happen anymore. Today my plan is to eat nothing so I will be starving when I get there.

It happened because I filled out one of those customer service satisfaction surveys. We went there on Superbowl Sunday. We figured if we went during the game it would be empty. It wasn't empty, it was closed for a private party. OK so we will pay for dinner at the restaurant. Went there and the line was hours long because the buffet was closed. ARRRGH. So we went home.

The next day I got one of those surveys. How was your visit? I filled it out and commented they should not send out buffet coupons valid on a date when the buffet is closed. And I gave food and beverage a low rating. I got an email from their Food and Beverage Manager and he gave me 2 free seafood buffets. YAAY me. And customer service is not quite dead yet. I love those surveys!

I would eat the hell out of that crab.

Eat as much as you can!

Today my plan is to eat nothing so I will be starving when I get there.

When I eat nothing, I’m not able to eat enough to justify starving ahead.

We were going to go at 7PM. They serve till 10. But we are starving and decided to go early... More time to eat...

And that is how customer service should work (but sadly often doesn't)!!!! Enjoy!

Just curious... how can you do that.. l mean physically... the VSG part of my DS makes me the most modest of eaters.. completely spoiled the all you can eat buffet thing.. not that it was a good thing to practice, for me, in the first place

Part of it is the fact that Munchkin is over 15 years out. Her sleeve has matured over time. I know at 9 years out, I eat more than I did at even 4 years out.
I know if I was able to go to a buffet for free, I would. Where else can you get all the meats you can eat?

I can eat a ton with my VSG. I'm sure it's bigger than it used to be because I over-eat.

I have always been able to eat a lot of seafood. Maybe I eat slowly because of the shelling and peeling? And I ate ONLY 2 things. Shrimp and crab. I can eat the veggies any day. I also don't drink a lot when I want to be able to eat more. If that buffet was $30 I would probably say it wasn't worth it. But for free it was great!

We have a new seafood place, Real Seafood, in Bay City, MI. I absolutely LOVE the miso glazed Chilean sea bass. Anybody ever had that? Its sooooo good. But I still cannot finish it. I dont eat sides. Over 10 years out, and my sleeve is still very tight.
