Casino food? Hate it. Maybe the cost is a little less, but that's
only so they can keep my afore mentioned fools there long enough to
separate them from their money.

One restaurant does not a genre make. We have a good sushi buffet
locally called Todai (prices on the web site do not reflect reality).
You can have a generous sit down sushi meal for two somewhere else for
the price of one person's buffet ticket there. People who love the
idea of "all you can eat" might think it's good, but IMO it's way too
expensive and you'll never eat your money's worth of food there.

I love cooking with wine.
Sometimes I even put it in the food.
