It's easy to overeat because of the desire to "get the money", but as a result, it's a loss if you feel sick or feel guilty about eating too much. The point is to think "get a seat in a radiant mood" instead of "getting the money" = "eating a lot". The author, who has repeatedly failed in the Vikings so far, will teach you the 5 secrets of the Viking strategy and 120% satisfaction that he has derived as a result.
■ 5 secrets of Viking
◆ Part 1 First, take a bite-take a deep breath when you enter the venue!
When I entered the venue, I saw a lot of food and the tension was eel climbing. Some people may have palpitation. First, take a deep breath to calm your mind and understand the size of the venue and the type of food.
After taking the plate, serve the dishes you are interested in bit by bit. Absolutely bit by bit. Even if you like it, it may not be the seasoning you like. If you like it, you can come back again. Always remember that your stomach is limited.
Also, if you start eating light dishes such as vegetables, it will be gentle on your stomach and prevent the blood sugar level from rising sharply.
◆ Part 2 Refrain from water
Moisture should be limited to 1-2 cups of tea or water , or 1 cup of soup throughout the meal. This is because the food in your stomach absorbs water and increases its bulk. Carbonation and alcohol are better to avoid, especially if you want to purely increase your Viking satisfaction.
◆ Part 3 Staple food is also bit by bit
Pilaf, paella, curry, all-you-can-eat bread, etc. In the buffet, the staple food is also new and attractive. However, when it comes to eating a bowl of tea, you'll be full in no time.
As with side dishes, it is smart to arrange the staple food little by little and adjust it to about one bowl. You can also get the satisfaction of "I ate a lot!"
◆ Part 4 Wait-and-see for the remaining dishes
It's easy to think that you have to keep a dish that has only a little left on the platter, but if you wait for a while, you may be able to replace it with a new one. If you want to eat freshly made food, you can put up with it. However, it may never appear again, so it can be said to be a double-edged sword.
◆ Part 5 Arrange in your own way!
When you were a student, did you make your own mixed drinks at the family restaurant drink bar? Let's enjoy making a buffet with various dishes and a plate with free ideas.
I have enjoyed making curry topped with takoyaki and chocolate fondue with naan. The point is to make something that you can eat properly. Adult etiquette is to eat as much as possible even if it is a buffet.
■ Summary
If the course meal is a package tour, the buffet is like going on a trip without a map. There is no fixed route or correct index, and it is up to you to decide the end of your trip. It is one of the pleasures to find your own secret by doing numbers. Don't be afraid to row into the ocean of cooking.
