On New Years Eve, me and Jixin celebrated by going out with his friends to the River Rock Casino Buffet. For $40, its all you can eat, which sometimes, is a little wasted on me since i don't eat too much. Usually the buffet is around $30 for Friday and Saturday and $22 for Sunday to Thursday. Although i am not sure what is available for the Sunday to Thursday buffet, the Friday and Saturday one contains stuff such as Prime Rib, various salads and desserts (ice cream included), most importantly crab legs, which are usually the iced kind. I actually do like the taste of the crab legs, but its just a pain for me to rip open the shells. I don't do that, i get someone else to rip it open for me because it is just easier. The service is always great and drinks such as tea, coffee, juice, and pop are included in the price. New Years Eve was busy and since no one is allowed to make reservations we went there right at 5 and there was still a lineup for it, usually if you go at 5 there isn't anyone there lining up. Otherwise, as the night progresses people are lining up for spots since they only seat 250 people. On New Years Eve the selection for food is greater than it usually is for the Friday and Saturday, but i feel that is was wasted on me. They had clams, crab legs, and shrimps on the ice sculpture (picture); they had prime rib, leg of lamb, and pork for carvings; as well as the usual salads, desserts, mashed potatoes, scallop potatoes that are usually available. Overall the service was still super great, even thought it was busy that night (the waiter was very attentive). I ate a lot and had a great time.
Jixin and I actually went to Yummy Tea House in Richmond afterwards because they were the only place that lets you play cards while you eat, which many places don't allow for various reasons. They even provide the cards for you. You can bring games to play with you like. The reason we went there, even after everyone was full is because they wanted to find another place to hang out, and honestly on New Years Eve, Richmond is pretty much shutdown except for food places. We had a couple of drinks but me and Jixin left early to go to my God Brothers' party at their place. I grew up with all of them; we are just like family. Overall i had a great holiday and i hope you guys did as well. Happy New Years Everyone!!!
