text: After a rather long absence we decided to pay the buffet a visit Thanksgiving evening where their menu was supposed to be special on the occasion of the holiday nnWe stopped coming here a while back because frankly the arrival of the Great Recession of George Bush and His Banker Buddies led to a gradual but very noticeable decline in the quality of the buffets food the ultimate insult being taco Tuesday an overpriced version of why I do not quiero Taco Bell The improvement in the economy is reflected in the buffets selection True it was a different menu than usual but even the usual daily offerings were better prepared the chefs were cutting larger pieces of prime rib than in the past when they were obviously instructed to not give more than a certain amount unless asked and the selection was quite good both in variety and taste The only disappointment would be their desserts which have always been a bit on the lessthanstellar side of the equation but even there it was hit and miss as to what you might enjoynnIf you can control your portion intake or do not care and do not mind multiday bloating and higher sugar readings because of your several trips to the bad food you should not be eating in the first place then you will do quite well coming here especially on days when the menu is uniquennApparently they now have allyoucaneat sashimi and sushi during the weekdays for lunch at a very reasonable per person which I am going to have to try in the near future waistline be damnednnAll in all Eagles Buffet is once more becoming the place it once formerly was and I no doubt expect to see more and more patrons rolling out the doors on their way to buy stretch pants and a larger supply of insulin after their meals Who would have guessed a simple buffet could do so much to contribute to the growth of clothes stores for larger sized people and bring about an increase in the number of cardiologists in the Valley
