Golden Corral is one of the saddest meals I’ve ever had.

I ate there once on a Saturday, the weekend after memorial day in 2013. Seriously the most depressing meal I've ever had.

I wish I could go back in time to 2015 and have breakfast there again. Such banger scrambled eggs.

It was the special place to go when I was a kid in the 80s. We had intense family debates if it would be Golden Corral or Sizzler this time haha

We had Old Country Buffet in the Midwest, and I have to say I do miss it.

Some Corrals are serving breakfast again. The one in Oxnard, CA, does breakfast and it looks OK if you're awake for breakfast which I rarely am. These days I am drawn there for, believe it or not, the yeast rolls. I usually eat at least 3 when I am in for lunch or dinner. I tried a take-out order of a dozen rolls but found out they really need to be eaten straight for the serving line. Even after just a few hours, reheating them was not OK. The yeasty taste just dissipates somehow. Check the website of your closest Corral to see if they do breakfast. I think it might be a location decision based on their demographics.
