I have always loved food. I will not fail to buy a small snack in every shopping mall I go to, cream puffs, donuts, yakitori, sushi and many more delicious food.
That's why I love going to buffets where there is an unlimited amount of food for me to finish xD
But like any other food, there is a price to pay so...

Here's 7 ways make your money worth spent at buffets
Disclaimer: These are just my own opinions and observations, it does not represent everyone.
1) Before-buffet preparations
This is really obvious. If you're about to go to a buffet do not eat any oily and carb-full food on that day and if possible, run a few rounds ;)
Once your there, feel free to walk around the restaurant a few times and plan out what you're gonna eat so you'll have an idea how much food you'll take in one plate.
2)Portion control
You can always take another plate of something that you like so don't be like, "oh wow this food looks nice. I'm filling my whole plate with it." Eating small portions of everything allows you to try more foods.

3) Start off expensively
If you equal amount of money to get either a HDB or a mansion, which would you choose? This applies to buffets. Would you spend $80 eating oysters and sashimi or nuggets and satays?
4) Stay off the carbs
If you're gonna eat any meat, pasta, bread and curry you're bound to be full quickly.
5) Try everything
Don't go like 'eww this is gross. No not gonna eat this. And this pasty thing. And this oily thing. Oh yeah and this. This. This. This... and that thing," in a buffet cause that's limiting your choice of food and this is bad cause you wouldn't want to order any of that in a restaurant where they sell everything in big portions. Just take a small portion of it and maybe it's surprisingly nice!
6) Eat fast or slow
I usually like eating slowly allows you to digest parts of the food you previously ate before you start on a new plate. Eating slowly also allows you to enjoy the lingering taste of every bite.
On the other hand, Some people think we should eat as fast as possible cause (this is what my friend told me) your brain won't be able to 'count' how much food there is in your stomach. I didn't really believe this bullshit logic but then I tried it out in a cheap but delicious hainanese chicken rice restaurant. I ate and I ate like a caveman who have been starving for weeks. And I really did eat more than my usual portion. But what's the point in shoving food up your mouth like that?

7) Less is more
This is contradicting my first 5 points but as I said, we Live to Eat. If you're full it means you're full. Don't go stuffing more food down your throat just because you wanna make the most out of this buffet cause that would be wasting delicious food. You'll also feel really bloated and fat and it may last for half a day for your body to digest everything depending on how fast your metabolism rate is.
This sums up how to eat profitably at a buffet. These are just my humble opinions and thoughts. Feel free to leave a comment or share my post if you enjoy reading it (:
