I hate buffets. What's to like, really?

When I go out for a meal, I go for the whole experience. I want to be served. I don't want to go serve myself from the same dish that's been picked over by dozens of undoubtedly disgusting people, using the same serving utensils that they used after definitely not washing their hands.

I want a plate that's been assembled by someone with purpose, with portions and presentation at least given the tiniest bit of thought.

I was raised to not waste money, so I don't need to be eating a meal where I'm constantly wondering if "I'm getting my money's worth" and inevitably ending up overeating.

I prefer my food to be served shortly after it's been prepared and not after it's been dried out and/or become an unrecognizable mess after been mashed around by a serving spoon.

There is nothing good about a buffet.
