Default Decent family buffets within 100 miles of Tampa?

I don't usually go to family buffets so I know zilch about them. But I'd like to find a few good ones to maybe use as destinations for a TBV breakfast cruise. Help me out, people!

We have had are best luck at Country Clubs.
Lots of parking and service is fast!!!

We should try Tampa Palms Golf and Country Club

Grand Breakfast Buffet

How about a Saturday Cruise in lieu of Sunday and go to Classic Corvettes in Tarpon Springs..All we need to do is find a resturant up there! We at TBV went a few years ago and was a great experience.

Our club went there in July, very nice, and we then toured Mr. Wiseman's private collection at his house. He has three huge garaged filled with classic cars and motorcylces. Mr. Wiseman personally gave the tour at his house. I believe they do this one per month, but you have to call ahead and make reservations, I think they have a minimum number of people, we had about 80, needed to do the tour, which is included in the price of the Showroom.

I don't know about places to eat in the area, however.

Default Golden Corral

On the weekends I don't think you can beat the Golden Corral for the best "bang for the buck". And as mentioned, Buddy Freddys is always a safe bet too.

Default Well now...

We were all set one day to eat at the Golder Corral here, when 3 ladies who were on their way out, were hootin' and hollering about how they witnessed a cook sipping (tasting) off a spoon then putting it back into the pot.
We then elected to hop back into the car and feed our faces elsewhere
I'm sure it happens at a lot of restaurants, I just won't eat where it's been witnessed!
