Personally, I generally eat at the cheaper breakfast places. It is good to get the smoked salmon wherever it is available, but I generally try to not eat things that I eat regularly at home. Since I can whip up an omelet or some fried eggs in less than 5 minutes at home, I don't eat them at buffets. I am always amazed/astounded/befuddled when I see someone at a higher end buffet eating scrambled eggs and a bowl of cold cereal. My wife likes grits and we don't make those at home, so even though they are common, she gets her fill in LV, and not at home. If you want pancakes or waffles, any coffee shop will do a better job than the priciest buffet, unless you are standing there when they come out of the waffle iron.
To each his own!!!
