Town and Country


On my last day before having to go back to work, my girlfriend suggested going out to a buffet to make the blog more interesting.(I Love Her for that) With a smile on my face I quickly agreed. So I called up my best friend who loves buffets almost as much as I do. So after a quick little chat with his fiance, we decided to go out. But where??? An all you can eat wing place was suggested, but since they're both on diets wings would really mess up there points. We eventually ended up at Town and Country buffet, where you eat inside of old box cars.

As I made my way up to the buffet I quickly realized that we were the only customers in the whole place. So I asked the manager if February was a slow time. He said yes of course! January and February are generally slow months for them, so slow that they aren't open Monday or Tuesday's during those months.

So being that we were the only people in the place, nothing was really being replenished. I saw the cook bobbing away in the back listening to music not doing much work. Overall I found that the majority of the food was somewhat cold, including the soft taco shells, the fried chicken and the sauages to name a few. As well the serivce of the 1 waiter was somewhat slow. It's not like he was run off his feet or anything. I would come back to the table and my previous plate would still be on the table. Continuing on with some of the negitive points, there was no RED JELLO! They only had green, I personally am not a big fan of green jello, I like red. But what buffet doesn't have red jello? As well my girlfriend mentioned that there wasn't as many veggies availble. Not cool in my opinion. I stayed away from all the fish on the tables becuase it smelt to fishy for me, good fish shouldn't smell overly fishy. The 4 or 5 fish dishes didn't seem to fresh to me at all.

I've been told that after you say something bad about someone you should always tell them something good, to make them feel better. So hear I go. Town and Country has a do it your self poutine station, ok so it's fries and cheese from the taco staion with some of the gravey for the roast beef but it still is great for me. As well they have mac n cheese, which is my all time favourite food. Next to baked ham witch they also had today, so every trip up to the buffet I had my mac n cheese and my ham. 'Great minds think alike or fools never differ' This statement is very true for my best friend and I, because on our first couple of trips to the buffet we had almost the exact same plates. Freaky? No way just really good friends!


Food: 6/10 Service: 5/10 # trips to the buffet:6


Happy Eating!
