Dinner from the Club. First time in a couple of months. It was a
buffet but as usual I got it "to go".

What a tasty, tender slice of prime rib:

I also got a cup of asparagus/brie soup (wonderful stuff, I need to

It was delicious. I could only eat half of the slice of prime rib. I
really don't have a big appetite. But it was very tender and so
flavourful.

I still have the other half of the baked potato (baked sans foil, with
oil or butter and course salt on the skin - yum!)

I will have some wonderful leftovers to gently reheat.

Absolutely delicious. I ate half of the steak. The other half is in
the fridge with the other half of the baked potato.

It was laid out buffet style but priced per person. I don't think it's
an all you can eat setup.

No. What is missing is jus. If there is no jus it is not au jus.

Agreed... buffet style means one fills their own plate so in fact
it's AYCE. Were it cafeteria style there'd be servers on the line...
often there's someone carving the roast and serving portions but the
sides are help oneself.

Hi Steve, not all 'buffets' are AYCE. Some you load your plate and
each item has it's own price. Similar to a cafeteria but you serve
yourself and check out at the end of the line. Clemson University had
one like that back in the 80's but I'll grant it's rare to see in the
USA. The most common time I see it in the USA is a mongolian BBQ type
place where you put what you want on your plate then they weigh it and
cook it then check you out.

There was a unique one in Thailand (sorry, too many years and so not
recall the city) but you got a tray with a bunch of little bowls. Each
bowl had to be a unique item and no more than level to the top. You
could get multiple bowls of the same thing if you wanted. You could go
thru as many times as you wanted but were charged each time at the end
of the line for what you had collected.

The food court at our medical center has one like that. Some items are
served by an attendant, but others you just take a dish/serving. You
pay at the end. Wegman's supermarkets are similar but I don't recall if
they weigh some items.

There was someone who carved the roast. I specified "rare" and that's
what I got. I served myself the sides but there were people standing
there ready to make sure I could find what I wanted.

A Dataw dining buffet does not resemble dining at Denny's or Golden Corral.

Nope, it wasn't anything like a cafeteria. No shuffling down a line and
pay at the end. Sorry!

Not sure what you mean. Au Jus is what they call a fairly thin broth
served with meat here. Considered in the family of gravy types. I don't
know of any that aren't meat derived Au Jus but there may be some.

Then 'au jus' means 'in broth'. So it doesn't make sense that there
isn't enough 'in broth' (au jus) with the meat. You want to say that
there's not enough 'broth' (jus) with the meat.

Yup, mix and match cafeteria and buffet. Jill may have meant something
differnt but don't really know.

Please note even your quoted version shows the difference in USA terms.
We are an international group. You will never get all to use the
specifics you want from a particular country.

Au Jus in the USA is a thin, meat based (far as I know) 'gravy'
(actually a broth with no thickening we'd recognize here).

Suggest ignore it if we add 'au' to the front of jus.

You're wrong. From an American dictionary:

<quote>
Definition of au jus
of meat
:served in the juice obtained from roasting
<end quote>
<https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/au%20jus>

And you don't want to say "There's not enough served in the juice
obtained from roasting with that meat", now do you?

I was going to make a cafe au lait today but I ran out of milk so I
could not make the au lait. I decided to make Baba au rhum but didn't
have any au rhum.

So what you are telling us is that the US has its own version of a
French term ? French cooking terms "au" and "a la" mean "with",
depending on whether the word is masculine or feminine.


au jus .... with juice
au lait .....with milk
au chocolat ...... with chocolate
a l'orange ...... with orange

Then there us the plural.... aux..... like omelet aux champignons. If it
is a plain omelete it is missing mushrooms. It is lacking champignons,
no lacking aux champingnons.

I'd prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away.

I could have gotten a souffle cup of jus (which is simply strained
drippings from the roasted beef) or horseradish sauce. I didn't request
either one. Everyone happy now?

I don't speak French but I gather the "au" means "with" in this instance.

I could have gotten a souffle cup of "jus" but since I was transporting
it from the restaurant to home I chose not to have an extra spillable
liquid. The meat itself was juicy enough. I was also transporting a
cup of hot soup. Really didn't want spillage in my car.

No, that's only a difference in gender, as Dave said earlier. 'A la'
for feminine and 'au' for masculine. Whether it means 'in the style
of' or 'garnished with' depends on the context.

If English was good enough for Jesus, it's good enough for us!

In U.S. usage (which completely ignores the French transliteration),
"au jus" means "unthickened beef broth":

A helluva lot of restaurants use this:
