π₯΄π½οΈπ« Hometown Buffet: The Absolute Bottom of the Tchotchke of Mediocrity π«π½οΈπ₯΄
This week, we revisit a meal that has haunted me since 2014: Hometown Buffet, the worst restaurant experience of my life. Joined by Trey Burch, I relive the sleepy Sunday morning buffet that somehow managed to fail at everything. From nonexistent service to questionable sushi, this trip back to mediocrity's basement proves exactly why this chain is extinct (and deserves to be).
π The Rise and Fall of Hometown Buffet: 4 Bankruptcies and a "Scatter Bar" Concept π₯΄ A Nearly Empty Sunday Brunch is the Reddest of Flags π« No Service, No Bussing, Just a Neighboring Table for Dirty Plates π£ Trey Eats Sushi at a Low-Grade Buffet (and Lives to Tell About It) π₯ Every Food Item Somehow Worse Than the Last π· Sneeze Guards Positioned Way Too High to Help Anyone π‘ The Manager Who Told a Guest Her Refund Was "Unfair" π Declared: The Definitive 0.00/10 on the Tchotchke of Mediocrity πͺ¦ A Buffet So Bad, I'm Glad It's Gone
π¬ COMMENT BELOW: What's the worst restaurant you've ever eaten at?
