Hey, Buffet! – Best of Vegas Restaurant Dining (1 of 2)
Of all people to be seen having a Las Vegas buffet, the latest is weight-watching Oprah.
Queen of talk Oprah Winfrey and best friend Gayle King showing up at a Las Vegas breakfast buffet unannounced — this was a highlight of the 2006 fall season of The Oprah Winfrey Show. Buffets, the best Las Vegas dining deals if your idea of a sporty workout is sports handicapping, became part of the #1 talk show’s “reality series” in which they went on a road trip starting in Sin City.
After an overnight at Wynn casino hotel, the gal pals could not leave Las Vegas without trying the “world’s biggest buffet,” and off they went to the Carnival World Buffet at Rio casino hotel. The pair caught security guards and a long queue of happy eaters by surprise, finishing off their buffet with an oversized cocktail and then crashing a convention of impersonators posing as themselves.
