With the reduction in capacity as I age out it's hard to get my "money's worth" at an AYCE place. If I eat too much I'm either miserable or so carb-loaded that all I want is a soft spot and a nap. Bv0= Still, sometimes on a weeked morning I'll hit the Golden Corral's AYCE breakfast and pig out on bacon and some really good cinnamon rolls - of course with hash-brown casserole, eggs, sausage gravy. etc. But, then I won't eat anything for the rest of the day .... uuually.
