Vernon: Best Chinese buffet?

[Queen K]

Crazy thing is Sunday might be fine for all we know. But I feel frozen to the marrow no matter what I do these days.

[Catsumi]

Yeah, well, coming from a place 50 degrees warmer is a bit of a shocker. Blood and coat too thin to deal with this cold.

[Queen K]

So, buffet sometime near the end of March? Will that do?

[Queen K]

Given that it is Family Day Long weekend, I still think calling off our g2g was the right thing to do.

We had a Snowmageddon Forecast , that came to zilch, so be it.
But it's still unpleasantly cold out and all the little monsters and teens are out of school.

I am predicting that we were all better off.

I'd prefer a Monday or Tuesday anways.

And here I thought this was a serious ongoing Castenet "discussion" about the "best Chinese buffet" in Vernon. I can honestly say, I have eaten my way through most Vernon buffets and my vote is with the tried and true Kiki Gardens, but as I was reading through the discussion I thought Royal Gardens would be a better setting for groups as they have large round tables in the back room where it is a bit quieter.

Although I haven't been as active in the forum as I used to be, I still read through some of the threads when my eyes need a good eye rolling work out or my blood pressure is too low, and especially when I am a bit blue and need to feel connected to the world without actually having to deal with anyone I actually know, haha. So that being said, if I am back from visiting my daughter in England (Mar 5-25), I would love to join the group when you meet in Vernon.

Wonderful. And welcome. Would love to meet you. Perhaps you can tell us why we should visit England.

QK, we tried Tuesday last time, remember? Looks like we should do this before Coffee leaves on March 5, April a busy month for me.

[Queen K]

A Tuesday works for me, for sure.

When we get the date for March, as in, when we're not all freezing our a$$e$ off, Coffeefreak, you will be in the know!

And welcome back.

Is this a slam ? If so, against who, what, why?

[LTD]

no not a slam, im guessing you haven't had English food tho

[Catsumi]

Now it's clear as crytsal. I seldom see a pleasant comment from you so was expecting a nasty.

Yes, English "food".... Doesn't everyone like overcooked and watery vegetables from time to time?

[Fancy]

mushy peas....

[Catsumi]

Gray mushy peas, fresh out of the tin, before cooking

[Hurtlander]

I could eat fish n chips, steak n kidney pie, bubbles n squeak, bangers n mash and spotted dick all day long.. and of course Yorkshire pudding.. nothing wrong with English food, especially if there’s plenty of ale.

[Catsumi]

Methinks 'tis the ale that appeals to your gastronomic undertakings a la Anglais, Hurtlander; More so than the pasties and kidneys which are best awash in a brew.
