Buffet

Buffet is a type of restaurant where you get to pick the food that you want to eat. When you go to a buffet you can go up to the buffet tables and pick out the food you want to try. Usually there are many different kinds of food to choose from, like pizza, tacos, spaghetti, or salad. You also get your own plate and can fill it up with whatever food you like. When you're finished, you can go to the cashier and pay for your food. It's a great way to try lots of different dishes without having to order them one at a time like you would at a regular restaurant.
