This wasn’t in the date night song…
Does this seem like the actions of a man who had all he could eat?
‘All you can eat’ at Applebees sounds like a threat.
It’s been nearly a decade since I have eaten there but the last two times I did, I had some significant intestinal distress.
Only reason to go there is half priced apps and somewhat reasonably priced drinks.
Why go to Applebee’s for all you can eat when chinese buffets exist?
They exist, but might not be readily available any more. Ever since the plague it’s been…a bit thin on the Chinese buffet front
There’s only one left within ~30 minutes of me and it’s not good 60% of the time
You also have to hope you catch the buffet when it is decently busy. That’s when they are churning throuh food so everything is decently fresh. On a slow day that food has been sitting oit there for god knows how long…
Because not everybody likes Chinese food.
Funny anecdote: I’m a skinny dude, even skinnier 25-years ago, but the joke was that I single-handedly put a restaurant out of business.
My gf, best friend and I got the munchies and went out to a place with shrimp on the all-you-can-eat buffet. Put crustaceans in front of me and offer my fill? LOL, that’s challenge not an offer. Better have a wheelchair on standby, 'cause I ain’t walking out under my own power.
Coming back with my 7th plate, a woman was seen whispering to her husband and we overheard him say, “Well honey, it’s all-you-can-eat, he can do that if he wants.”
The place closed less than a week later, never lived down the ragging from those two.
As long as you left some for the other patrons, and took your plate back to your table, I don’t see much of a problem. But I’ve seen people just sit down in front of the buffet, right where the shrimp or lobster tails or whatever are, and just start eating right there.
The other thing I’ve heard of was someone coming into the buffet at lunchtime, having lunch, and then just staying until dinner (without paying again)
One (really really good) Chinese buffet I’ve gone to twice gives you a coupon for a single lobster. The rest is all you can eat, but they had to limit the lobster (probably because of the people who exaggerated)

Sounds legit.
“What do yall say we go get thrown out of an applebees?”
One of the most disgusting things I ever ate was an applebess “endless riblets” deal… Ribs that tasted exactly like the sausage patty you’d get on a sausage, egg, and cheese sandwich…
