We will be missing it as once again we'll be in St Augustine from November 1st until Dec.20th then back again from March 4th to April 28th 2024. One of these years maybe I can convince DH to quit going to Belize for Jan & Feb (where its much warmer than St. Augustine for him) and stay at our condo for the whole 6 months. Then we could take a trip over to Orlando for the get-together.
Absolutely.
I think the buffet option works for this type of situation. There is something for everyone and since they allow people to hang out longer it lets them also eat at dinner time based on lunch prices. As @AwayWeGo indicated, it also allows people to return and sit at a different table so people can mingle better. Sure this could work at a fixed seating restaurant, but people would probably be less inclined to do so because they really have no reason to get up. If you don't like the restaurant chosen, you don't need to go. Though I suspect you are just here being critical and judgemental for the sake of being critical and judgemental...
For the past 2-3 years, timing for the TUG Golden Corral meet-up has been adjusted so that we show up after suppertime pricing is in effect.
Agree. A park bench and bring a sandwich would be better.
We only went to one of these got-togethers, but it would have required quite a few park benches!
We will be there next year! Thanks for keeping up the tradion!
Sorry we won’t see you in Orlando at the get-together ( but we will be in St augustine if you’d like to drive over one day earlier!). We are also leaving home on December 26th so we can have Christmas with the kids — so often we miss it here— and then we’ll be on our way to St Aug as soon as we pick up our van at Ron’s brother’s.
Totally agree, there is a BJ's and a Bahama Breeze right there which in my opinion is a much better option than Golden Corral.
oh no, thank you so much for sharing ! Here I was planning on swimming everyday, it’s normally so cold to swim outside.
