I took the family to Golden Corral tonight, being the big spender that I am. The feature item was filets wrapped in applewood bacon. Steak is kind of hit-or-miss at Golden Corral, sometimes it's OK, sometimes not so much, but there's usually a good variety of stuff, the kids like it, and being on Atkins limits my cheap dining-out options. They were GOOD! Medium rare, very tender, thick, very good bacon, it was unbelievable. Not as melt-in-your-mouth as I would expect at a good steak house, but they were all-you-can-eat for the whole family for less than I would pay for just one large filet at a good steakhouse. I had a couple of them with my salad, a couple more with some vegetables, and one more for dessert. My wife had a couple too and we couldn't believe how good they were. I would have eaten more, but everyone else was ready to go. I felt sad as I walked by the big bin of filets on the way out the door, guilty for abandoning them like MacArthur leaving The Phillipines. I shall return.
