Fu Yuan Hibachi Buffet
Plainfield, IN

A huge, pricey buffet where everything seemed three days old: brown-pepperoni pizza, a spat-out sausage and the driest chicken on planet earth. Only the goon saved it. 2.2 stars.

What he said
“Does [Fu Yuan] Buffet deserve 3.1 stars? I'm gonna have to lower the score here, guys. This is. I didn't have anything that wasn't probably out there for three days. 2.2 stars.”
“The smash crab. Rangoone. We're definitely goonin. I think the goon just saved this place.”
“This has to be the driest chicken I've ever seen on planet earth.”
“It tastes like a frozen pizza, but I don't know, the brown pepperoni is kind of throwing me off here.”
“This is a pretty sad dessert bar, honestly. They done gave up and said, here's your fucking Chips. Ahoy, baby.”
