Tim! No need to apologize! This was an amazing experience for you and us. It did not seem long at all. Time flew by. We would love to see you go there again.
Without a doubt, Les Buffets Grands is the world's gold standard for a buffet! It is a multi-faceted dining experience that tantalizes all the senses from all perspectives available. The exquisite architecture, the special touches made for dining customers, and of course the world-class foods that grace your palate. It definitely fits the bill of being the Disney World of dining which requires multiple days of experience to truly appreciate all its wonders. No wonder the term Bon Appetite is most appropriate here! I can appreciate how Tim is blown away by his experience. Hopefully, he has time to do a second experience soon, without filming, to take his time and capture all the wonderment for himself to enjoy.
Thank you for showing us this classy, and elegant buffet. I must admit, for the price and quality of food and service, it beats any buffet in Vegas Bravo Tim! et Merci!
I got a chance to speak to a few members there , and they mention that many people came here to try to copy the buffet, but so far , none has succeeded. Vegas is very nice, but yeah, it's not the same
Tim Lee. For this episode, take as long as you need. The chandeliers and ornate walls were beautiful. The duck on the sword, my word. What a presentation. The price of the buffet is unbelievable, for so much marvelous food 😋 I laughed so hard at the number 11 cheese and your reaction.
I didn't even notice how long the video was until you mentioned it! I was so mesmerized by everything. The scenery, the food was just beautiful! And the cheese! I'm not a drinker, but the cheese and the ham I would destroy! And all the chocolate???😍😍😍😍
I spotted the vid length at the start, and thought maybe it was a completely unedited vid - the vid length is longer than many buffets let you eat for!
Tim-I saw Le Grande Buffet featured by another bloggers believe it was Mike Chen(Strictly Dunpling) a few months ago. However I must say that your coverage was so much more detailed& thorough.that you have compelled me to put it on my bucket list.Love the way you interact with the staff & indeed in all of your videos. Thanks for sharing Stay healthy& keep travelling my friend
I agree, I saw Mike's video, he is excellent but Tim's review seems less rushed and honest. One thing that I remember is that the recommendation is to reserve 2 days in a row, if possible, especially if you are coming over the pond.
Yeah, Mike Chen has featured that place and there is no comparison with the way Tim did. No doubt Tim’s video is much better. By the way, I used to follow Strictly Dumpling before but I stopped when I learned and knew about Tim Lee.
This was overwhelming and over the top. One thing that impressed me the most was the team and owner wanted to preserve the grand fine dining experience, and make it accessible to many people by keeping the prices reasonably affordable. My hats off to them!
No doubt the most famous buffet in Europe. Just a couple of hours away from Barcelona by a fast train. Always crowded because gets the real classical french point of view about food (more than one hundred cheese flavours).
Hey Tim, I am French, that mystery fish "Seiche a la Settoise" is squid chunks. Thank you for this great video, I hope you have enjoyed your time in France.
Hey Tim, I can't thank you enough for this video, to me it was not long enough, thank you for celebrating French cuisine and see your appreciation, it is an honour. Love your energy, wish you all the best❤❤
Tim... Chlorpromazine and Plavix were both invented in France..Miracle Drugs. And Penicillin was published/ discovered by Ernst Duchesne in Paris in 1893...published! The men who landed at Omaha Beach were convinced such geniuses must be saved for the world. Our oldest ally and at a level of genius that we did not achieve in chemistry....
Seiche is "cuttlefish" (morgate" in Brittany), not squid (calamar); Settoise is actually "Sètoise". why did not you use multiple plates, instead of mixing custard with caviar and "wild rabbit (hare) ?
i think its the price for the evening, if i remember correctly and im not mistaking, unless they change their price, its around 50$ at noon service for roughly 2 hours
This French buffet is absolutely stunning to behold! Tim, you are so lucky to have the opportunity to be in France for this memorable occasion. Bon appetit!
They each have their own technique - I think they both do a good job. Mike highlights the meats and Tim does tend to show more of the variety, which is always quite nice. Tim Lee is somewhat more knowledgeable on the many foods. But Mike does show the food really up close so you feel like you're there tasting with him. 🌿
Your videos are so wholesome, soothing, and positive. They're like an antidepressant for me haha. There's some great buffets in Thailand (Copper Buffet, Orchid Cafe, Baanmama) and Shanghai (there's some ayce Japanese places with unlimited king crab, uni, foie gras, and chutoro).
Thank you so much for your kind comment. It is such a privilege to get to connect with this community. As nice as the food is, it's really about connecting... Getting people excited to connect and travel 🙂. Thank you so much for your wonderful suggestions, now I am tempted for Thailand 🙂
Tim, one of your most epic videos at an unbelievable dining experience. This place is on another level. I was smiling ear to ear and salivating the whole hour.
I could not believe how long the video was. I'm you going in that it would have been long because of the size of the buffet , but editing was another story 😉. It really is a spectacular buffet and you're right , it's dining on another level... And affordable to many people
Wow! I have never seen anything like this. Thanks Tim for going out of your way to see this wonderful buffet. The flaming duck presentation was incredible!
Tim, this is totally epic! Amazing, extravagant, over the top. The décor, the service, and especially the food look outstanding! Les Buffets Grands deserve not just a follow up vid but a series! PS-The Canard au sang is known in English as “pressed duck”😋
Tres bien! Magnificient buffet! Merci, Tim for showing us the lavish culinary displays. You looked like you enjoyed every bite (and sip.) Yum. 😋👍👍 Truly one of the top dining experiences so far. 🤗❤️😘
What elegance. I don't know how anyone can decide what to not eat, given the offerings at that buffet. What a magnificent feast. So cute how the French patrons were self-conscious being filmed. You could see they were very curious. Lovely treat getting a tour of this superb buffet. And only $60.00?
What an amazing Buffet. I could never imagine such an establishment in France. I was born in Paris France in the 70s and such places didn’t exist back then. French gastronomy is one of the best and most complex in the world. All the dishes at this buffet reflected that. Merçi Beaucoup Tim. Your French was not bad.😊😊PS that plate was not chicken but veal (Veau)
It was very impressive and no where but France could I imagine anyone pulling off the complex french cuisine in the rapid secession of the buffet while keeping the style and elegance
Best buffet ever! Just beautiful. Thank you Tim. I hope you enjoyed yourself. I really enjoyed this buffet with you. Your such a gentleman and you have wonderful manners. Be safe and God bless you as well.
Mon Dieu! Incroyable! This place is absolutely epic. A meal of a lifetime, I'm sure. Thank you Tim for introducing it to us. Hope you've recovered from the decadence! Looking forward to part 2. Merci beaucoup from Toronto. 😃
@Tim Lee: Thank you for making and sharing this video. This restaurant looks beautiful. The food looks delicious! It was also nice to see the friendly and helpful staff. If you haven't done so already, please do a Part 2 of this video showing us what you didn't get to the first time you came to the restaurant.
The best of the best!!! Exceptional service and food!!! Its everything I dreamed it would be. Thank you for taking us along on your culinary adventure it was appreciated more than you know.
Thank you so much for the visit . At the start just looking at the buffet , i knew it was going to be longer but had no idea it was going to be over an hour 😀
This is a amazing buffet and the biggest and most elegant one l have ever seen! The staff and customers are so pleasant. I love the dining room and chandeliers are gorgeous! I have always wanted to visit France especially Paris! Thank you Tim for inviting me on your journey to france.
This has to be the most exquisite elegant buffet you have ever visited 🤔...all the food looked amazing . glad you enjoyed yourself, safe travels, have a great week and God Bless 😘🤗❤
Omg, this buffet totally deserve its name. It's on my bucket list now. Totally worth traveling to if anywhere in that region. Although after this epic video. It's going to be really hard to get a seat now.
This is what I call the Ultimate buffet!! Tim great job food was beyond on point. Take all the time u need when u find a gem!!! You spend all the time u need to explore this buffet, this is not a buffet u could rush through. I loved every moment, I'm gonna watch again. Thank you!!!!Warmly Cookie 🤗🎃👻
Thank you so much again. This was quite unbelievable...so grand and everyone was so kind. Even at the hour mark, there were so many things I was not able to show...
What a feast! I found myself with my mouth agape at all the delicious French dishes, the huge cheese display, the incredible dessert selection that just kept going and going (cakes! pastries! crepe suzette! ice cream room!).
Thank you for the tour, looks amazing! Your insight is so generous and kind. Much more appealing than other videos I've seen on this very restaurant. Much appreciate you. Thanks again.
Tim, this is the second time I have watched this video. I simply can’t believe the quality, presentation and cheese board and deserts. Wow. You must go back again please and try some of the dishes you didn’t try first time around.
Thank you so much! It’s interesting because for this place, you really need to make two reservations to eat there twice. One time does not give sufficient time to explore the whole buffet😋
I wouldn’t know where to start 😮 that buffet is absolutely amazing 🤩 I can’t believe how beautiful it is and the food looks so delicious. Very overwhelming
The different preparations are amazing, the cheese room astounding, a lobster tower, I would be in Heaven!! The quality, the opulence, they make you feel like royalty, I think. Oh to be so lucky as to travel to France, and to eat at this beautiful restaurant. Unlike any buffet I've ever seen. Staff is professional and happy to assist you. Thank you again @TimLeeLetsGo
Any buffet with lobster as a starter is my kinda buffet! That building is beautiful. 😊😊 Had to come edit this! I saw the moment you weren’t sure if you could eat anymore. I thought poor baby! Seriously I would need one day just for the cheese! It all looked really good. Thanks for taking us with you!
I have been binging on the videos that I have missed the last few weeks! What a beautiful place! 😍 How kind was the staff there and the cheese guy did you so well!! I think I would have been in a food coma! How fortunate that you are blessed to be traveling so much this year!I am definitely living vicariously through these videos!And I am so happy that you're channel has grown so much!!I really do look forward to seeing where you will be going next!!Well done, all the way around!!
Thank you so much... It was quite an experience and David was very kind indeed with the cheese plate;it was a bit of a surprise when I got back. Definitely a bit of traveling this year and I think I might have over did it a bit 😉
It was quite an impressive offering and astounded at the pricing for this great experience.. thank you so much again and really grateful and humbled to get to visit this place
WOW!!! That was incredible! I can't believe The Grand Buffet for only $65. What a deal! You did a fantastic job, I couldn't stop watching! Cheers! I became a new subscriber! 😊 Joe
Tim thank you for taking us along with you. All the food looked so deliciously wonderful but more than anything it was an experience. Yeas please come back!
Tim! Thanks for the great video! My family and I truly enjoy watching your experiences. You feel like a part of our family at this point haha. Keep up the great work, Tim!
I can't get over how comfortable you appear to be talking to the camera while all around you are eating and minding their own business. Do you ever get pushback from restaurants or other customers? I love that they allow you to do your thing.
Thank you so much. I do make sure to ask for permission to take pictures and video so the servers and hosts know. (off camera, I do ask for permission from the guests I've chatted with on the video)
Tim, this has to be one of the most amazing buffets you've ever done. I don't know how you were able to walk back to you hotel after that!! I'd have been in a complete food coma 😂. The atmosphere was AMAZING 😍. Thank you so much for sharing your food and travel experiences with us. ❤
I may have missed it, but how long were you actually at the buffet? It seemed fairly relaxed. You did one recently with a 70 minute limit and it was almost painful to watch lol.
Thank you for showing us the buffet. Is there a time limit since there are so many different items to taste? As you were walking through the food section, it did look really tight and crowded.
I have heard about this many years ago , and never would have imagined ever been able to visit . I can resist since i was made to make the journey and it was well worth it . They would have been worth it coming from canada as well
What a beautiful place! You are very fortunate to be there, I would also like to experience this. The food looked top notch and the service impeccable.
What an amazing buffet, I was dreaming of what I would get if I could be there I would go for the seafood and cheese for sure but what an awesome experience 😂😂😂.
Definitely well deserved name grand buffet. The opulence and ambience for the mere price of 60 euros. Amazing value, I think this will be on my list of to try establishments. Thanks x
It was such a great experience. I would highly recommend visiting but understand it is a crazy journey. one thing that was ringing true was that you really need to book to seating on separate days to fully see everything
Everything is so beautiful and classy. Sure a wonderful variety of foods and I thank you for this episode. My cousin works for a major grocer in the Pacific northwest and has her own cheese section that she is responsible for and right next to her is her friend who is responsible for the wines. She loves introducing people to the varieties of cheeses and got me hooked on cheeses. She would love to have the experience of tasting all those fabulous cheeses there.
Your story of being only 2 hours from the buffet reminds me of a comedy bit by John Pinette, a big man who is no longer with us. He was in France for weeks for a show, thinking about Italian food, and someone said, Hey, Italy's only 45 minutes from here.... It's a good bit.
I would highly recommend making a trip to this destination buffet. Really great experience there and if you do go, make sure you book a few seatings many months in advance
Absolutely love all your videos and now binge watching some of your older one..its easy to see you are such a wonderful person and remembering the staffs names is super respectful..Thats rare trait in this world..Enjoy..watching from Cape Breton Island, Canada❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
What an Amazing experience, I love how you went through each station and asked the staff for recommendations n chose the best dish to try for yr fans, absolutely Grande...the choices, the ingredients and varieties shown is just out of the ordinary, a Must try Buffet for sure, I hope to try it someday when I visit France and hopefully the price not skyrocketed high after yr video. Thank you so much Tim for your effort👏🤩💕 super impressive buffet💯👍
I would highly recommend visiting this buffet even if it means significant travel. If i'm not mistaken , i believe one of their goals is to ensure this experience is available to many people by keeping the prices relatively affordable. Total respected them
One of the last things you said was "Experience"... that's what it was. From the opening show of the Blood Duck. To the Ambience and Decor. The impeccable food.. all the way through the cheese board that went to 11(Spinal Tap would be proud 🤣). Well worth the hour to watch. Thanks Tim.
Congratulations Tim, I didn't think you would be able to eat that much food. A very well-presented video. Bon Appetit! I agree with others, this restaurant deserves at least 3 to 5 shows. So many of the dishes are very exotique and further explanation would be very helpful.
This buffet is out of this world!!! We r planning our vacation there before the Olympics. The time u spent wasn't enough to experience all stations the food looked outstanding and delicious. I loved how u could ordered items, instead of standing in line.
Mon Dieu ....you took one for the team....wow ....you are so relatable which is why you are so well treated your joy of the experience so genuinely evident...thank you... a viewer from snowy cold Western Montana....no buffets even close to what you share with us anywhere here merci beaucoup

Vegas sucks. After they started charging for parking and got rid of reasonably priced buffers, vegas is rip off

I was wondering if I missed the price-$65!! That’s surprisingly reasonable. Thanks, Tim for a wonderful video.

Wow, that's all? $65.00 for everything???
HALF THE PRICE OF A VEGAS BUFFET!

WOW!!! That was incredible! I can't believe The Grand Buffet for only $65. What a deal! You did a fantastic job, I couldn't stop watching! Cheers! I became a new subscriber! 😊 Joe
I was quite surprised at the price as well... They have full respect for making this experience accessible to as many people as possible 🙏
Tim don’t apologize for the length of the video. I’m enjoying every moment. So much different than the Las Vegas buffets.
Thank you so much for the kind comment and greatly appreciate the feedback 😃
There’s only one word for this dining experience; magnifique! 🌹
I agree 🙂
This buffet is probably the best, for its price, and number of choices...amazing!
It was simply unimaginably good
Grand indeed. C'est incroyable! Merci for not skipping those beautiful desserts.
The classics desserts were amazing 😋
Tim thank you for taking us along with you. All the food looked so deliciously wonderful but more than anything it was an experience. Yeas please come back!
The team at Les Grands Buffets was incredible... every little detail was made to provide a grand dining experience🙂

You are definitely the nicest foody on utube 🦞
Tim! Thanks for the great video! My family and I truly enjoy watching your experiences. You feel like a part of our family at this point haha. Keep up the great work, Tim!
I can't get over how comfortable you appear to be talking to the camera while all around you are eating and minding their own business. Do you ever get pushback from restaurants or other customers? I love that they allow you to do your thing.
Thank you so much. I do make sure to ask for permission to take pictures and video so the servers and hosts know. (off camera, I do ask for permission from the guests I've chatted with on the video)
Tim, this has to be one of the most amazing buffets you've ever done. I don't know how you were able to walk back to you hotel after that!! I'd have been in a complete food coma 😂. The atmosphere was AMAZING 😍. Thank you so much for sharing your food and travel experiences with us. ❤
The walk back was a bit tough but much needed. I never slept so well before 🙂
I may have missed it, but how long were you actually at the buffet? It seemed fairly relaxed. You did one recently with a 70 minute limit and it was almost painful to watch lol.
Truth be told, I was there for 6 hours!
@@TimLeeLetsGoOMG!!! 🤯 Thank you for all the time and energy you put in to make us jealous and hungry 😂. And thanks for replying ❤
Thank you for showing us the buffet. Is there a time limit since there are so many different items to taste? As you were walking through the food section, it did look really tight and crowded.
WOW TIM ,A LOBSTER TOWER ? YES THIS SCREAMS EXQUISITE! 🙂🥰
It was out of this world
I'm so jealous of you, that looks so incredible!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If I were still stationed in England, I'd have to pop across the water.
That’s amazing that you were stationed in England! If you get a chance to go back to visit, I would highly recommend this buffet.
To the person reading this, even though I don't know you. I wish you the best of what life has to offer 🙏 🙌 😊❤
That’s very kind and thoughtful of you, there should be more folk in the world like you. ❤
Thanks you too ❤
@@arriesone1 ❤️😊👋👏
Wish you the same, thank you.
@@cryptoconfused3400 😊👋
That was amazing. Thanks for taking us along. I felt like I was right there with you and could almost taste the food.
What an amazing place to stay! 😮
Looks like it's definitely worth flying over just to eat there! Wow
It was beautiful
I love France and French cuisine but I have never been to this buffet. I feel compelled to go now! Truly spectacular!
I have heard about this many years ago , and never would have imagined ever been able to visit . I can resist since i was made to make the journey and it was well worth it . They would have been worth it coming from canada as well
Magnifique Buffet. Merci DeNous Emmener avec Toi.
Thank you so much🙏
Did you try their excellent Mississippi Mud Pie! Tres bien.
Highly surprised this is only 60 Euros! One dish looks like 30 😂
Looks like your walk worked up an appetite! What a gorgeous room your table was in!
What a lovely video ! Your french is good and you are so polite ! Bonsoir from France !
You're very kind.. but i did notice that everytime i attempted to speak in french , they respond in english 🤔
they noticed you were speaking english and they just wanted to make things easier for you .@@TimLeeLetsGo
What a beautiful place! You are very fortunate to be there, I would also like to experience this. The food looked top notch and the service impeccable.
I would highly recommend it. If you're ever near the South of France, definitely make the visit there 😋
What an amazing buffet, I was dreaming of what I would get if I could be there I would go for the seafood and cheese for sure but what an awesome experience 😂😂😂.
Excellent choices for sure 😋
I LOVED THIS...love the way you try everything & the way you describe every delectable bite & sip!
You have the best gastronomy adventures Tim🙌🏾❤️🙌🏾
I would highly recommend making a visit if you’re in the area or even if you’re not. It is quite an amazing experience.
Wait, wait, wait. No way! Half a lobster and you declined the roasted potatoes? Are we in an alternative universe?
Just mixing it up a bit there😉
@@TimLeeLetsGo The buffet was wonderful and the atmosphere was outstanding! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the channel
Definitely well deserved name grand buffet. The opulence and ambience for the mere price of 60 euros. Amazing value, I think this will be on my list of to try establishments. Thanks x
It was quite an unbelievable experience and am completely astounded by the price
Tim this is the fourth time I’ve watched this episode. If anything, I would’ve liked it longer! Every thing looks so good!
It was such a great experience. I would highly recommend visiting but understand it is a crazy journey. one thing that was ringing true was that you really need to book to seating on separate days to fully see everything
Everything is so beautiful and classy. Sure a wonderful variety of foods and I thank you for this episode. My cousin works for a major grocer in the Pacific northwest and has her own cheese section that she is responsible for and right next to her is her friend who is responsible for the wines. She loves introducing people to the varieties of cheeses and got me hooked on cheeses. She would love to have the experience of tasting all those fabulous cheeses there.
This is definitely a place to be for cheese lover's !
What a great treat this was to watch. Hard to top something like this. I have to live vicariously through you for this. Awesome job!
Thank you so much for your kind comment , and i was actually thinking the same thing . . . How can anyone top this experience. 🙂
So beautiful, happy that you made the trip ❤...if I ever get to travel ,I would visit Japan, Spain and France ..such marvelous food and scenery ❤
Thank you so much and I hope you get to travel and explore whether far or local
Thank you for taking us with you. What an magnificent experience.
I would highly recommend a visit there if your travel takes you to that area
Your story of being only 2 hours from the buffet reminds me of a comedy bit by John Pinette, a big man who is no longer with us. He was in France for weeks for a show, thinking about Italian food, and someone said, Hey, Italy's only 45 minutes from here.... It's a good bit.
I love how respectful you are in all your videos. 😊
Really grateful that everyone there were such good sports. Servers post and follow diners were very open 🙂
I need to visit that buffet. The ambience, the servers, the food, it all seems to come together so nice. Wow! Thank you so much for a great video!
I would highly recommend making a trip to this destination buffet. Really great experience there and if you do go, make sure you book a few seatings many months in advance
You can do as many long videos as you want…..love them …living vicariously through you. Thank you thank you thank you
Thank you so much, and was a bit concerned there…
Absolutely love all your videos and now binge watching some of your older one..its easy to see you are such a wonderful person and remembering the staffs names is super respectful..Thats rare trait in this world..Enjoy..watching from Cape Breton Island, Canada❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Warmest greetings to you from the other side of the country... wishing you well from Vancouver Canada
What an Amazing experience, I love how you went through each station and asked the staff for recommendations n chose the best dish to try for yr fans, absolutely Grande...the choices, the ingredients and varieties shown is just out of the ordinary, a Must try Buffet for sure, I hope to try it someday when I visit France and hopefully the price not skyrocketed high after yr video. Thank you so much Tim for your effort👏🤩💕 super impressive buffet💯👍
I would highly recommend visiting this buffet even if it means significant travel. If i'm not mistaken , i believe one of their goals is to ensure this experience is available to many people by keeping the prices relatively affordable. Total respected them
@@TimLeeLetsGo Thanks Tim for the info👍you're always so genuine💕🤗
I feel full looking at all the cheese, creamy rich foods. Thanks for sharing the experience🙏🙏
That was a really really enjoyable experience. I was very full after the dinner
That is incredible for such a price
If you’re ever in the south of France, I would highly recommend a visit. It is quite amazing.
What a beautiful place and what great looking food. You are so lucky to be able to experience that.
I could not have fathomed ever being able to visit a place like this. Incredibly grateful and humbled to get to share these experiences.
TIM- THANK YOU for bringing us this experience, I would FEEL like I was eating with Napoleon himself being in such Grandeur!!!
One of the last things you said was "Experience"... that's what it was. From the opening show of the Blood Duck. To the Ambience and Decor. The impeccable food.. all the way through the cheese board that went to 11(Spinal Tap would be proud 🤣). Well worth the hour to watch. Thanks Tim.
Thank you again. Yeah, it was a long one. They went over the top with everything but done elegantly. It was a long evening as well and enjoyable 🙂
@@TimLeeLetsGo Anthony Bordain did this in Paris, it was $1,000 for the dish.
@@bodyloverz30 I could not complain for $60😀
Quiet watcher here, from Hawaii! What an”Awesome” Buffet! Loved every minute of the video. Thanks for the adventure. Mahalo, Tim
That food looks delicious! I didn't mind the extra long video. I enjoyed it. You're such a kind man. Very good mannered. 👍👍
This is my bucket list I am going there before my time is up
Tim, everytime you utter ohh after 1st bite, I droll all over. Thank you so much for taking us to this culinary wonderland
I so want to go to France now to try this very reasonable priced buffet. Thank you.
Congratulations Tim, I didn't think you would be able to eat that much food. A very well-presented video. Bon Appetit! I agree with others, this restaurant deserves at least 3 to 5 shows. So many of the dishes are very exotique and further explanation would be very helpful.
That was the word I was looking for... Exquisite. Thank you so much for reaching out. It was overwhelmingly good 😃
This buffet is out of this world!!! We r planning our vacation there before the Olympics. The time u spent wasn't enough to experience all stations the food looked outstanding and delicious. I loved how u could ordered items, instead of standing in line.
What a wonderful upcoming vacation! I hope you're able to visit
Mon Dieu ....you took one for the team....wow ....you are so relatable which is why you are so well treated your joy of the experience so genuinely evident...thank you... a viewer from snowy cold Western Montana....no buffets even close to what you share with us anywhere here merci beaucoup
Thank you and greetings from another snowy place , vancouver! It was quite a spectacular event and the people there made it special.
