The Hollow Sense of Gluttony

All you can eat Chinese buffets are evil. They give you a plate, a fixed price and then tempt you with a sumptuous array of goodies that are impossible to resist. Now my belly feels like someone's trying to blow up a hot air balloon from the inside. Plus I'm really regretting that final serving of coffee cake.

Me too *sob* - but I think our trip to Jumbos the other week only took things to greater and greater waistlines, I mean, things with regards to Chinese food consumption.

This was a Banana Leaf restaurant - similar thing but sadly a lot less choice for vegetarians. Still the vegetables in creamy stuff was really nice and they do some fantastic chips. I can be exotic, me :-P

Don't know if the Banana Leaf is a chain or not - I think I have seen them around elsewhere - suffice to say that they are more expensive than Jumbo's (£9.49 as opposed to £5.49) and not as good. Still gorgeous though :)
