Shlup, when I return to California, you are taking me places. I beg it of you. A made-to-order sushi buffet sounds like something that would cost £50 over here if it would even be profitable. I'm not sure if Brits love sushi too much (ie are willing to pay through the roof) or not enough (ie just don't pay enough to make the restaurants charge low). But it's not cool, man.

I adore a good buffet. Chinese, Thai, even "normal" food. In fact, the best buffet I've been to was one in NZ called Valentines, which had all sorts of everything. I am totally going back there when I return to New Zealand someday because omg yum.
