Sorry, no picture, but I do have the menu - Greektown Casino International Buffet menu.
General thoughts - Since my stomach can only take in so much and their menu is a rotating menu, I was obviously only able to taste so many things. Lunch for $9.99 is a pretty good price, and they let you use the Greektown Casino comps.
Foods tasted - Hand carved roast beef, Mac & Cheese, mashed potatoes, fried chicken wings, potstickers, wonton soup, lo mein, spaghetti with sauce.
Thoughts -
1. Hand carved roast beef - It was pretty good. Not too dry or overdone.
2. Mac & cheese - Also pretty good, nothing overly spectacular.
3. Mashed potatoes - I'm not 100% sure if that was box or the real thing, but it was pretty good for a buffet.
4. fried chicken wings - I didn't really want the commitment of the fried chicken so the wings are a good substitute. They're also pretty good, and they are cooked through.
5. Potstickers - Seeing that I make Chinese dumplings (basically potstickers that you cook in a broth instead of pan fry), I still think these potstickers are delicious and well done. The skin was browned properly and the inside was cooked through. I was afraid the skin was going to be gummy because of unnecessary moisture, but they weren't gummy at all.
6. Wonton soup - The "wonton" in the soup is the same as the potstickers which is great because I don't like wonton soups that are just skin or maybe with a dab of meat. Whoopie doo. So this one is great. The broth was your standard chicken broth but it wasn't too salty. I did go back for seconds.
7. Lo Mein - It was a bit cold. You can tell it's been sitting there in its oil for awhile. But ignoring the temperature of the dish, it was pretty good for a mass produced dish.
8. Spaghetti with sauce - It was a bit cold as well. But flavor-wise, it was pretty good.
Final thoughts - Very Yummy In My Tummy? It's alright. It fills me up, but I think I can only handle buffet for lunch once or twice a year. I'm not expecting dishes at a buffet to be out of this world, but the regulars do not worry about that.
