Yeah, it doesn’t seem "Fair" to stock a bunch of tables with a record-setting number of dishes, then take them off after counting them, and that’s the end of it. If it is indeed, a record-setting Buffet, it sould be there on a regular basis for paying customers to enjoy. (more than one time).
I still aim to visit the place in Rhode Island that advertises the Lobster etc "expensive" Buffet. One of you guys have named it for me in the past, so help ole’ foggy brain again here!! Anyway it is a continuing Buffet and theat’s what should be considered for an entry in the Record Book.

Edit– OK the place I was describing is CUSTY’S and it moved from Rhode Island across the State Line into North Stonington, CN. It really looks good to me !! Here’s the link to their website–http://www.custys.com/
