Tell me about it. This one time I went to a revolving sushi bar (Kura) while stoned off my ass, and that's exactly what my bill turned out to be. Never go to a place like that while high! Find a good Americanized Chinese buffet like Lin's instead.

Unfortunately I had a really bad experice at one. Never again.

Last time I tried an all you can eat sushi joint, they didn't explain the process clearly enough due to a language gap, I ended up ordering way more than I could handle by mistake, and felt incredibly guilty about having to send it all back. I meant to order 10 pieces but they sent me 10 orders of 10 pieces instead, without even thinking to say, "are you sure?" Look, I get that I'm your typical overweight American, but I'm not 250+ lbs; did the server seriously think I could eat ONE HUNDRED pieces of sushi?

And then they tried to charge me for it too! But I made that go away after a long discussion with the restaurant manager. Long story short it put a sour taste in my mouth and I really don't want to give AYCE a second chance out of fear that I'll screw up the order again...

I thought it was going to be about you got sick lol. I mean. I’d give it a shot again. Just maybe not there. Try one of the places that lets you tick off the boxes. That way you have a paper trail ;-)
