Are you still weird about buffets since COVID started? Or is it just me?



If I just think about buffets too much in general, I get a little grossed out. Not due to the fault of the restaurant, but just the other people touching things and bleh. However, if I can there when they're putting out fresh pans (and spoons), that's perfect. Because I really do enjoy the concept of having a little bit of a lot of different things. 



The Peking Buffet in Mason is a fairly small buffet but still features the main items I'd expect at a standard Chinese buffet - general tso, fried rice, beef and broccoli, etc. "



I got a to-go box and went around looking for what I wanted to add. A lot of people don't know this "hack." Just about every buffet I've ever gone to lets you do a take-out box -- now, not as leftovers -- but as your whole meal. Sometimes there's a standard price, and sometimes they weigh it. Either way, if you want the variety without having to wait or eat there, it's the best way to go.



So I tried the honey chicken, some mushrooms, some general tsos, cheese rangoons and eggrolls. Quality wasn't bad, but the main concern was that things were a bit cold. It wasn't a super busy time at the restaurant, so I suppose they weren't refreshing all of the items as often as they could. 



But, I liked the flavors and the kind of chicken that was used. What's your favorite dish here?
