"George Bargisen" news and stories

World's largest buffet

I've yet to find a Las Vegas buffet that I thought was truly good and offered sufficient variety. I've given up on trying. But I'm pretty sure that a recent 510-item extravaganza held at the Hilton to wish Alka Seltzer a 75th birthday would fit the bill. Not that I would haven be too happy about jostling at the carving station with the more than 850 people who turned out for the buffet, which Guinness World Records has certified as the largest ever.

George Bargisen, the hotel's executive chef, assembled an impresssive array of dishes, including salmon Wellington, fried alligator, Waldorf salad and crème brûlée. The spread was laid out on 500 feet of tables. No word on how much Alka Seltzer was given out.
