What can be said about the world's biggest buffet except that it carries it's bang for it's buck!\n\nFirstly, if you park in the self parking garage, you will have to literally walk through the entire casino floor to get to the front entrance. Not a problem, just a small gripe I had. \n\nI arrived, as a newbie, to the buffet on a Sunday morning to the shock of a smaller than normal line. My friend is an avid Carnival eater and told me that the line becomes more over than an hour the later in the day, especially on the weekends. I'm happy she was there to guide me and my friends.\n\nAs a pollotarian (look it up), I always hope for a wide variety of vegetarian, chicken and other poultry-related items to be in the menu of the buffet I attend. Luckily the Carnival World Buffet did not disappoint. With over 300 types of dishes available on average, my taste buds were kept busy continuously. From the delicious breakfast buffet bar(ooh, alliteration) to the Chinese section to the fresh soups, noodles & teppanyaki area, I was filled to the brim within an hour. I stocked up on the gelato bar, mini desserts & the wide variety of fresh fruit. \n\nMy friend is a 5'4\" persian girl, but my oh my did she do the seafood section justice. From crab legs to shrimp to what have you, you get your fill of the cast from the Little Mermaid when you stop by there.\n\nDid I forget to mention on Sundays the $25 price tag(mind you there are coupons all over the place) gets you a BOTTOMLESS mimosa buffet? I was all smiles from ear to ear when I discovered this.\n\nYou will hear from people about how there are \"better\" buffets (at a \"worse\" price) and \"cheaper\" buffets (at a \"worse\" experience, think the bathroom 4 hours later), but I would have to agree with my expert friend and say that the Rio's Carnival Buffet gave me a little bit of everything I needed...booze included. Stop by on your next trip to Sin City! There is a shuttle leaving all day from the Ballys hotel on the strip so you don't need to drive!
