/ck/ - Food & Cooking

mile high soft serve.

lots of food, little price.

smells better coming out than it did going in

it helps you get a good perspective on life and people in general

>>6759721
Laughing about it is a constant source of amusement for me.

>>6759752
this. No matter how fat and disgusting you think you are, someone there will show you that no, you are slim and attractive and, at least comparably, worthy of love.

Rotisserie Chicken is good

>>6759721
I haven't eaten there.

Its far far away from me... And good so..

Kids lick there fingers then touch food. Last time I was in one a kid licked a strawberry then stuck it in the chocolate fountain

bulimic paradise.

>>6759721
Breakfast for dinner. Yeah, i went

>>6760068
I'm still wondering about this. There was just a giant, open tub of sugar next to the drink station. What is it for? Iced tea? They don't have packets of sugar?

>>6760070
>packets of sugar for gallons of tea
thats not how the world works sheltered one

>>6759721
Unlimited food buffets. You can actually eat to what YOU consider full portions, rather than just hoping the restaurant gives you something filling enough for the price.

To be clear, you do not go to Golden Corral for high cuisine- their food is, admittedly, low quality. You go there because you are ravenous and poor, and when you spend thirteen bucks on food, you know you'll be able to eat your money back.

Buffets are a rare and precious thing. Let us respect them wherever they be.

They don't exist in my country.

>>6760087
well ya it kinda does. At the 2 restaurants I worked at that served sweet tea we used sugar that came in pre-packed 1 lbs bags. Loose sugar like in the pic would invite the apathetic and retarded to put in "what they think is right"

>>6759752
>>6759838
Yep.
A few months ago, I went to one for the first time in my life and it looked depressing as hell.

Their pizza is great sometimes. But I've only been to one location. And for something like that, results will vary depending on the person making it. So the pizza at your location may suck.

>>6760122
So this place is to fat poor people what bison are to native Americans? Seems about right

>>6759721
Ive never eaten there

>>6759721

you can eat all you want
lotsa chubby people so you don't feel bad

Helps you pinpoint where it all went wrong.

Buying in bulk is much cheaper?
And also what is a measuring cup??

I know it's filthy and full of abominable wastes of flesh, but me and my friends often go there purely because of how much food you can eat; it's obviously low-quality but it's still decent for the most part. If you can swoop in when they put the plates down, you can avoid having your food manhandled by smelly Indian children. They have a grill where they'll cook steak ("steak") to order, which is pretty nice. Also, plenty of dishes like tacos, pizza, grilled fish that are impossible to fuck up.
Just know what you're doing and GC can be a good experience.

>>6760787
Last time I went the guy cooking the steaks actually knew what he was doing. Usually you ask them for medium rare and you get well done. But not this time. Pic related

>>6759721
>what's one good thing you can say about golden corral?
the one in my area shut down and was replaced by a Mexican Restaurant with God-tier margaritas.

>>6759721
I've picked up some of my best hookups from their bathrooms to fuck at my house.

I have funny memories of going there after eating shrooms and watching TDKR for the first time.

>le reddit dinner theater maymay

>>6760852
...the bathrooms are same sex though, aren't they?

>>6759721
That there isn't one in my town.

>>6761046
Yea, what's your point?

Keeps the niggers off the streets.

>>6760806
that's our recovering economy in action. probably a chef with a degree.

>>6759729
Bull. I got a gift card to go there and just went a few days ago. It was $32 for me and my wife. I didn't even get completely full cause the food was just so bland and unappealing. Compared to most other restaurants with good food we can usually order an appetizer and 2 entrees and get filled up with leftovers for 25-30 bucks.

>>6759721

>>6762803
thats the point

>>6759721

The vegetable and fruit area is always mostly empty and free of kids so it's probably cleaner .

>>6759721
They have $5/lb takeout, which is a steal for pecans, some cooked fish(its light), or just grabbing a quick, cheap lunch.

>>6763620
$5/lb?
doesnt sound too bad
poorfag here so you can just grab the shit and put it in a box or wat?

>>6763620
i really hope you're not buying fish from golden corral. how low have you sunk?

>>6759721
It gives old people and butter golems a place to gather.

>>6760122
>You can actually eat to what YOU consider full portions, rather than just hoping the restaurant gives you something filling enough for the price.
This would make perfect sense if we weren't talking about the US, where the default portion size in restaurants is already extra large. If portion size is an issue for you at restaurants in the US you're either a serious athlete in training or you just plain eat way too fucking much.
>Buffets are a rare and precious thing.
This is not true. Go anywhere there are large concentrations of fat poor people and you'll find them. The highlight of the week for my redneck relatives used to be going out for a "belly buster" after church on Sunday.

>>6760687
where's voice actor anon that vocaroo'd it?

God tier breakfast after a night of drinking.

Everything else is gross tho

>>6759721
golden corral, and other buffets are only good when it's packed. the food turn over is faster so you get fresher food that hasn't been sitting under lights for hours.

However you have to deal with the people that go to buffets.... btw, anyone got that copypasta? those stories are fucking gold

>>6759721
As a Canadian it's my dream to go in here, observe fat white trash and OD on mediocre, albeit unlimited American cuisine

>>6759721
Cheap legal freakshow.

>>6760122
>You go there because you are ravenous, poor and think a pound of nacho cheese on top of a serving tray of wings is a meal

>be 17 in highschool
>just finished a football game where our school had to rent a charter bus and drive 5 hours away to play an away game
>whole group is mostly seniors, I'm a junior
>team loses rather badly (like 35-7 or something)
>coach stops the whole team at Golden Corral
>food is mediocre at best, pretty much only eat the fried foods and salad bar
>the rest of the players are laughing and throwing food at eachother
>our coaches are SEETHING
>entire next week of practice is vicious as fuck

Haven't been back since; it's just not good stuff.

What they serve is technically food.

Got my first blow job in a gc bathroom. Shit was great

It's good comfort food for when you're incredibly depressed and when you just completely and utterly fucking hate yourself.

>>6760481
Cruise buffets are pretty good though. I had english muffin, canadian bacon, and cream cheese sandwiches for breakfast along with custom-made omelets. And their lunch/dinner wasn't a buffet, it was a normal restaurant experience except you don't have to pay extra for the food since it's included.

>>6760434
The only things there worth eating are the salad bar, pizza, breakfast, cocktail shrimp, and the occasional med rare steak nugget. Oh and onion rings if they got em

That the closest one is 10 miles away. That's the nicest thing I can say.

>>6759721
Dinner and a show.

It's like wow, how is that hambeast balancing all those plates.

Do they know they can get more anytime?

Damn they stacked all the food together creating a slop.

>>6759721
I've never gone there two days in a row and seen the same vomit still sitting on a booth like I have at Waffle House.

>>6764517
>>6764529
HAHA, this reminds me of that video from the Onion about Obama visiting a Denny's.

>5 hours away to play an away game
>obviously not a playoff game because you lost and still had practice the next week
Where the fuck do you live?

Being able to have a nice variety of food for an ok price. Also I like the fried shrimp.

They used to serve these mini chocolate chip muffins that were pretty good. No idea if they still serve them though. It was over 20 years ago.

>>6764927
Probably Texas

>>6764902
my thoughts exactly.

>>6764125
Because that's when seeking comfort in large quantities of low quality food is a much better idea than making some changes in your life?

I don't even need to go to Golden Corral. My small town is 90% buffets, all of which are cheaper.
We have 2 chinese buffets, a kfc/taco bell buffet, pizza hut has one as well as another pizza place, some fried chicken place offers one. Besides that we have 4 fast food joints, and two average/garbage mexican restaurants. All of which are filled with the standard GC fare of people you'd expect.

I just want good food, man.

>>6759721
There's an exit

>>6760087
>packets of sugar at tables
>brew unsweetened tea

everybody wins.

mfw I'm going to Golden Corral for dinner right now

>>6759721
There isn't one within over 250 miles of where I live.
