I highly Recommend The Awesome:

The all u can eat Sizzler salad bar buffet is finger lickin good value!! >

For 149 baht, all in, you can gorge yourself until flatulent on a selection of lettuces, croutons, soups, pasta, carbs, little baby chicken eggs, bacon bits, green peas, baby corns, dressing, virgin olive oil, fruits of all flavors, salt and pepper and yogurt and celery and beets. Beverages are extra and the service is great.

Highly Recommended (4 out of 5 stars)

Is it just me or does the Sizzler Salad Bar Buffet rock?

I really like the salad bar at Sizzlers.........too bad the rest of the menu sucks.

I think that might make me 1/2 trailer trash :D

For the price, the salad bar is good.  It is hardly haute cuisine, but then again, it's 149 baht.  I don't care too much, though, for their menu items.

On another tack, has anybody been to Ginger at the Centara Grand?  THey are advertising a Wagyu Beef buffet every Wednesday.  I loved the Grand Hyatt Erawans' wagyu promotion they had last year, and I wonder if this one is any good.

Certainly wouldn't say that it is 'the best buffet' but for what it is (cheap fast food) it is passable and a more healthy option than McDonalds etc.

I like the image of baby chickens laying eggs.

What color are the carbs?

Are there banana flavored fruits?

Bacon bits: made from textured vegetable protein, artificially flavored to resemble bacon. Yummy !

"....dressing, virgin olive oil..."

I can rearrange those words to be much for fun.

Sorry, I'm sure the place was great. I used to eat at a Thai buffet for 99 Baht that bumped up to 115 but was still good value with DIY BBQ fish, rock lobster and big prawns as well as the normal mystery cuts of pig and beef, noodles etc. and enough ice cream to drown a camel - that was outside Pattaya and I sure miss it.

When I was in the States, I considered Sizzler a low end place to get steaks and whatnot. I've actually eaten at Sizzler more times in my five or so years here in Thailand than I had ever eaten in my 20+ years in the States. From what I can remember, the salad bar was a lot better in the States. It was more than just salad. You could get pizza, chicken fingers, and a variety of other food. I only go to Sizzler cuz the gf likes to eat salad. Plus we just order and entree and fill up on salad so we can take home the entree as another meal. It is a cheap buffet and so it's good value for the money. I sometimes like to order a baked potato and fill it up with cheese, sour cream, the fake bacon, and other stuff to have a hearty baked potato like back home.

That's nice. if I want a salad I buy the ready made ones from the supermarket (60 baht), potato (10 baht) and have it at home.

I love those baby chickens! And the fact that they give birth to baby chicken eggs is a miracle of nature. Proof of GOD? Well I don't know. I'm just happy the farmers didn't abort the delivery of the baby eggs before they were delivered to sizzler.

Bananas are indeed a banana flavored fruit but my favorite has got to be a watermelon flavored fruit called watermelon. Fantastically flavored carb of the pale red carb colored interior with green shell. The carbs in sizzler come in every color of an artists pallet so come on down.

Different packaging here, back home it felt more like a truck stop diner (and sometimes it indeed was part of some trucker stops on major highways). Wouldn't call it the best, but at least they keep their veggies relatively fresh.

Mrs Q and I had dinner there a while back, its was very nice but no wagyu steaks, bits of it in salads etc.

The wagyu itself was not especially well marbled and the rest of the buffet was, for the cash, just so so.

The wagyu at 55, the Centara's new steak house, is excellent, best I've had in Bangkok. The chef is Canadian.

Sizzler buffet is a good deal for the money. The chicken and pork is decent, and the baked potato is too small, but the salad bar is great. They have GREAT blue cheese dressing, which is almost impossible to find in Thailand, especially at that price. I eat enough blue cheese alone to make it worth the money

Still the best buffets in Thailand are the 99 baht moo kata bbq places

      Why are many people so partisan?

      I am not as far to the right as people here might think. What happens is you say something that is just a fact or a matter of strategy such as "Trump was smart to have a rally on a day that it didn't rain'" Then people simply starting ranting at you with vitriol and venom. I can also say something jokingly about people being racist and the other half rant almost the same way. I am beginning to think people don't observe or care who posts what. Like they don't care about the user name and consider the posting history and adjust from there. So for the most part I am not very subtle. I am more to the right here because I dislike the lefty posters more than the rest. They really are a nasty unhinged bunch of ideological poo. Truly the ugliest face of humanity. Another forum i post on is more right wing and the same thing there I am to the left. It's like prison where you have to choose a gang.

      Much to my surprise, you said something I can agree with. IMO the Vietnam war was the start of the rot, when certain companies made massive profits from providing death machines for a corrupt war. They liked it so much they have been going to war ever since.

      Man Arrested for Murder of Neighbour in Khon Kaen's Phon District

      Police in Khon Kaen on November 15, apprehended a man who allegedly murdered his neighbour in a violent attack with a fishing spear. The suspect, 49-year-old Thawatchai Piwkham, reportedly admitted to killing 55-year-old Boonkong Divo due to feelings of frustration and stress following his mother's recent death. The incident occurred in a rice field near Ban Sakaeo, Moo 8, Kaeng Ngiew Subdistrict. Authorities found Mr. Boonkong lying face-up by a canal, with eight stab wounds in his neck inflicted by a sharp metal spear used for fishing. Following the attack, Mr. Thawatchai fled on foot into a nearby rice field but was apprehended about 500 metres from the crime scene by investigators from Phon Police Station. Mr. Thawatchai led officers to the murder weapon, a blood- stained fishing spear, abandoned roughly 50 metres from the scene. He was taken into custody and transported to the police station for further questioning. During interrogation, Mr. Thawatchai confessed to the killing, explaining that his mother had passed away only two days earlier, leaving him distraught and unable to cope. He claimed that seeing Mr. Boonkong's face triggered feelings of anger, prompting him to attack. According to Mr. Thawatchai, he struck Mr. Boonkong, causing him to fall into the canal, then fatally stabbed him only once with the spear before fleeing. Police charged Mr. Thawatchai with premeditated murder. A search of his home revealed drug paraphernalia, and records indicated a prior drug-related offense. Relatives of the victim described ongoing tension between the two men. Mr. Chalerm, the victim's nephew, explained that the family had rented a neighbouring rice field for the past six years. Mr. Thawatchai recently returned to the area from Bangkok, whereupon he began frequently antagonising the family, demanding to know why they were working nearby. Despite repeated confrontations, Mr. Chalerm had previously attempted to ignore the provocations, shocked by the brutal outcome of the long-standing animosity. Meanwhile, Ms. Nooka, 60, the grandmother of the accused, shared that Mr. Thawatchai was deeply affected by his mother's and grandfather's recent deaths. She noted that Mr. Thawatchai had once been a helpful person, often sharing fish with his grandfather. Although she was unaware of any specific grievances between her grandson and the victim, Ms. Nooka acknowledged the tragedy and expressed sorrow for all involved.

      Police ‘sidecar’ into bust: Drug suspect nabbed in undercover sting

      Police officers in disguise successfully apprehended a major drug suspect by blending seamlessly into the local community. Disguised as locals, they rode a sidecar motorcycle to the suspect’s home, where they arrested him without raising suspicion. Officers from the Elephant Warriors unit of the 434th Border Patrol Police Company in Phatthalung, led by Yothaphon Rungsawat, orchestrated the arrest. The team disguised themselves as ordinary villagers, donning simple gardening clothes and using a sidecar motorcycle to approach the residence of Jarint Kongklai, a 28 year old suspect in a drug-related case. Intelligence had revealed that Jarint had returned to stay at his home in Moo 13, Ban Chai Han, Khok Sai subdistrict, Pa Bon district, prompting the officers to execute their plan. The police aimed to blend in with the local environment to avoid arousing any suspicion. Their choice of a sidecar motorcycle was strategic, as it is a common mode of transportation in the area, thus ensuring that their approach appeared routine. Upon reaching the suspect’s house, they found Jarint sound asleep, unaware of the impending arrest, as the motorcycle made no unusual noise to alert him. The officers surrounded the house and woke him up to present the arrest warrant. Initially, Jarint resisted arrest, requesting to see his mother first. However, he eventually conceded to the police. His mother, upon learning of the arrest, was quoted saying, “This time, let him stay inside for a long time.” His criminal history is extensive, starting in 2016 with a drug case at Hat Yai Police Station, followed by another drug case in 2019 at Rattaphum Police Station. In 2022, he was involved in a theft case at Pa Bon Police Station, reported KhaoSod. In 2024, he faced yet another drug-related case at Pa Bon Police Station. Jarint has served time twice in different prisons, first being released from Nonthaburi Provincial Prison in 2020, and most recently from Phatthalung Central Prison in 2023 for a theft conviction. by Bright Choomanee Picture courtesy of Matichon Source: The Thaiger -- 2024-11-16
