I was looking for a bite to eat after shopping and stumbled upon this place. It's a buffet style place that charges by the pound. I chose to eat here because of the variety they had and I was looking for healthier options. I mainly got food from the salad bar and some baked chicken which was fantastic.
One thing I found strange at first was all the plants out in front. I was told that I can buy them so I picked up a small bamboo plant to help decorate my apartment and fell in love with it.
If you're looking for a place with good food variety and maybe pick up a small plant on the way I'd recommend this place. -

A buffet at a so-called mini mall in Jamaica!
I stop by this mini mall "unique", where they sell bootleg perfumes/cologne, bags, jewelry etc, which they came from China. Downstairs, they have small stores and a big second-handed store. Enough with the chitchat, let's talk about this restaurant. Downstairs, there's a food court and I choose to dine at Johns Restaurant because I'm curious to try their food.
When I went inside of that restaurant, it's looks like a mini buffet. Yeah, a mini buffet at a mini mall. Anyway, I picked some of the food from the buffet and everything cost $7 because mine food was a bit heavy.
The food that I choose from the mini buffet doesn't taste good because the penne was half-cooked, the chicken taste more like fish, and the lasagna taste like it came straight out of Stouffer's. The grill vegetables however taste good that's all.
About the tables, the front had less dining tables than the back. But, thank god that I didn't sat with nobody because it wasn't a busy hour at that time. If you dine at this mini buffet on a busy hour where there's more people, you'll won't have no choice because you'll be sitting with random people who talks and eat at the same time. But, if you that kind a person who likes to sit with random people, well that's ok with that.
