The WORST BUFFET EXPERIENCE I've Ever Had!

I haven't reviewed a buffet for a while and thought it was about time that I headed down to Jimmy's in Greenwich at the O2 for a bite to eat. Will it be hit or miss? Time to find out!

    These buffets usually increase the range in the evenings, but what worries me is that at opening time the food was cold! Are they taking the prepared dishes out of the chillers and relying on the heated serving pans to slowly bring them to temperature - a recipe for food poisoning soup?

    Can you imagine a good eatery in the O2 or any other concert hall? The skill is in eating somewhere tasty en route to the gig. 2 exceptions though. A stunning goulash at the wonderful Union Chapel and the pasta at the Royal Albert Hall was pretty decent.

    Poor Gary! Thanks for being brave and honest. From past experience, a lot of these buffet dives (especially the ones that do multiple different cuisines) are very borderline. I am often left wondering what "meat" is actually contained in some of the dishes. Whatever it is, it's bloody cheap, but not necessarily cheerful. One wonders if the local cat population has recently inexplicably depleted?
