[Title] => A buffet of delights
[Summary] => Why are buffets popular among us Filipinos? Maybe its because owing to our fiesta-studded culture we are inclined to celebrate at the drop of a hat. The sight of a long table groaning with food and the thought of feasting on so much with family or friends is enough or so it seems for us Filipinos to create a festive atmosphere. When we gather to enjoy a meal to our hearts content, we can expect to pass the time chatting animatedly and laughing heartily as well.
