Un-Official Statement on the Future of the Buffet Blog

Two months ago we all received some debilitating news. It was at this time when Guy Alaimo, head-writer and CEO of the Victoria Buffet Blog, announced his retirement from the world of buffet critique. Since this announcement, the future of the Victoria Buffet Blog has been in doubt. Today I would like to ensure blog readers, and the public at large, that the Buffet Blog is not dying.

I am a long time contributor to the Buffet Blog, and would like to announce today that I will be taking over head-writing duties until either Mr. Alaimo returns to the blog, or he chooses a successor. These are exciting times in the Victoria all-you-can-eat/buffet world: summer saw the opening of a buffet at the Indian Market, the premiere of Posh on the island, and the advent of a Sunday brunch buffet at the Loghouse Pub.

In the coming months expect coverage of the Empress' curry buffet, the pending grand opening of Kuku's Buffet, and updates on previously reviewed eateries. At this time I plan to update the blog once every three months or so. I will admit this marks a drop in content, but I believe the alternative of no blog at all is a far harsher reality.

I would like to thank Guy, and his brother Angelo for their unwavering commitment to the championing of buffet culture over the past year and a half. I would also like to thank Guy for allowing me to be part of the outstanding community service that is the Buffet Blog. I look forward to attempting to take a walk in his shoes.

Sincerely,

Donald Kennedy

Great news! Good idea to update less frequently - as already discovered, constant buffet testing can be dangerous to the health...

Who doesn't love a buffet - the trick is knowing when to stop fucking eating!

On that note, my family and I took in the brunch buffet at the Laurel Point Inn today, and it was pretty nice! Good room, good food, good service - nothing but some minor quibbles, many of which are due to putting a buffet into a space that was never designed for one. They were moderately busy, but only do one seating - way less than the ass pounding the buffet took in my restaurant today tho! Was there some buffet oriented conference in town or something?
