    Thanks Tommy for that link.

    That was totally amazing that Golden Corral has served over 2.5 MILLION meals to our unsung heros. My thanks goes to them and Golden Corral.
    On a different note, I was happy to see Captain Dan (Gary Sinise) speaking on behalf of GC.

      That's a nice gesture. I'll bet the line will be around the block.

        Know where I will be having dinner tonight. I will pay for LOML. We go there often as it close by and the food is great.

          Golden Corral = Guilded Trough

          at my lunching group, we affectionately call it the "Guilded Trough". Food is good for a buffet.

          Good for them.

            When we get the extended family together, we tend to go to Golden Corral. Decent food, good price, plenty of space to sprawl out... I have always felt good about doing business with them. This certainly helps their cause...

              Just got back from the corral. My wife and I both have lost our parents in the last few yrs so we took a friend of ours, a Korean and Vietnam war vet who is disabled out with us and he had a great time. A lot of Vets out tonight and most were wearing caps with their branch of service showing. As we left a few fairly new recruits I gather were near the door and saluted our friend. A kind gesture on their part I thought.

                Went by on way home from Dog Park. Was going to pick up LOML and go. There must have been 300 people in line. Decided to pass. I think the offer was great and many thanks to GC. Next time I go in I will thank them

                      Been there, done that, waaay too many times. It's the Ham and Lima Beans that get you every time, no matter how much Fish Sauce you use.

                          Hey Cab,

                          I don't care what they called it, the food still sucked. IMHO, monkey, snake and all 4 legged mystery meat tasted better.
