Where should I go for lunch today? Right now I’m torn between getting a sandwich at the butcher shop and going to a cheap all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet, however I lean toward the buffet and am open to other suggestions too. Any ideas?

Wow. Those are two tough choices. Yummy sandwich, or all-you-can-eat greasy goodness. Why not just do both?
I’m pretty hungry myself, so my gut is telling me go to the buffet.

I’m going home unless a mullet appears. If I were you, though, I’d do the Chinese buffet.

Mmmmmm…Chinese food.
That’s where my vote goes.
I had cottage cheese (ok, it was breakfast and lunch, because I hadn’t eaten yet). But I didn’t have to cook it, it tasted good and I was hungry!

Go for the Chinese buffet. It just sounds right. I want Chinese buffet dammit! I gotta go home and eat pimento cheese tho. \ At least it’s the good homemade kind of pimento cheese.

I say sandwich, because when I do Chinese steam table I always eat too much fried stuff and am sorry for it later.

I vote BLT from Arby’s. I had one last week, and I have to say that it was the best fast food experience of my life. I also had the Hardee’s pepper and onion steak sandwich, and that it was easily the worst fast food experience of my life.
