whole thing was very nice, except people were loud and wore whatever they felt like. They had field greens, Caesar salad, raw oysters, raw clams, shrimp, rock lobster claws, lobster halves, caviar, sushi made to order, eggs to order w/ things like asparagus & shrimp, lots of salads, Mexican burritos, various potatoes, Belgian waffles, rack of lamb carved to your cut, carved beef tenderlion to your cut, various carved meat and vegetable stuffed pastries, champagne oysters, mussels, lobster gazpacho (didn’t like it), duck, chicken, fish, European cheeses, cherries jubilee w/ ice cream, creme brulee, bowls of mixed berries w/ huge raspberries, flan, fruit tarts, pastries, lots of chocolate things, chocolate covered strawberries, tiramisu, champagne grapes, star fruit, lychee, Chinese plums, papaya, lots of your more “regular” fruits and other exotic fruits, cakes, etc. They pour Evian everytime you drink a sip, and they pour Perrier Jouet frequently. You can get teas, coffees/capaccino, etc., fresh squeezed OJ, cranberry, grapefruit, etc. They had stuff like bacon and sausage, also. I am sure I am forgetting stuff. I didn’t like the breads or the gazpacho. Everything else I had was very high quality. Plan on 2 hours for a meal there to enjoy all it has to offer. I had not eaten for 24 hours when I went, and I still only managed to eat 2 lobster halves because I was enjoying the salad, fruit and creme brulee. That creme brulee was so good, I could have licked the bowl. They serve it in the steakhouse. They also had octopus. They didn’t have veal picatta that I had read about and looked forward to. THey didn’t have blinis, either. They also didn’t have ostrich or pheasant. Perhaps they rotate some of these exotic things. I know at the salad, I put what I thought was cheese on my salad, and it turned out to be crab, so be careful if you are allergic.

This buffet cost me $66 with tax and tip. Service was impeccable, and I was served with constant personal attention. Everytime I got up, I came back to a fresh linen napkin and my glasses full and icky dishes cleared. They serve on real silver and white china.

The Perrier Jouet was poured generously, and various juices, including fresh squeezed orange juice, were poured. Hot tea and cappacinos were available, as well.
