 There is one in the Orchard Cafe at the Double Tree hotel that is
 generally OK.  I think it's $9.95.

 hi all!

 we ate at Delmonico's, on Smithfield Street across from Kaufmann's.
 it's a buffet with a very, very impressive selection.  it's not an
 all-you-can-eat, though--you pay by the pound.

 i had the meat loaf, mashed potatoes and gravy--it was delicious, as
 was the macaroni & cheese.

 i also had a nice helping of some lovely fresh fruit--great slices of
 sweet, ripe pineapple--big fat juicy sweet blackberries--beautiful
 strawberries--and lotsa kiwi.

 give them a try--i was there with a party of 7, ranging in age from 17
 to 60-ish, and everybody liked what they ate.

 i didn't pay, so i can't say how much they charged per pound, tho.

 ciao,
