Ram Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 I have seen a couple of them in Vegas. Speaking of Vegas last weekend I was up there. Drove all the way from Orange County merely to have lunch buffett at Paris. talk of spontaneity. The food was good but more for the sea-food lover which I am not. The desserts were delicious though slrrrrp :two_thumbs_up: Lurks , you ever been to the Thamba ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ram Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 Now ' date=' their is a desi guy from Delhi with whom I generally hook up for golf. I am at a handicap of around 12 now. Only problem he is better than me , in fact he is one of the select few who used to play in Delhi from high school days. Rich kid , I guess.[/quote'] So , do you have a complete club kit ? With all the irons i suppose. Whats your longest hit on the straight ? 300 yards ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted September 7, 2007 Author Share Posted September 7, 2007 Lurks , you ever been to the Thamba ? Yes I have. Did not particularly enjoy it though Sriram. Vegas should get some good Indian restaurant. There is one at Rio whose name beats me but even that's nothing xtraordinary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It took half an hour to figure out which dishes were where. :D But probably the costliest Buffet i have ever had - $20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumble_rocks Posted September 7, 2007 Share Posted September 7, 2007 So , do you have a complete club kit ? With all the irons i suppose. Whats your longest hit on the straight ? 300 yards ? Yes , I have taylor made driver R7 460 which costs around 200 USD , my taylor made three wood costs 150 USD and I have Callaway Big bertha Iron sets which costs around 600 USD and then their is the putter from Odessey which costs around 100 USD. Golf is pretty expensive I guess. But Ravi disagrees with me. :D My longest drive with the driver is around 300 yards range although it is the shorter game which decides the scores most often.

You are only a college going kid, make sure you eat 5 people's worth :D:D Thamba buffet is certainly not cheap...more so when you consider you can eat at Monte Carlo or Luxor at just about that price(buffett wise of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We tucked ourselves completely and when the stomach felt like it could take no more , we gave it a rest for 10 mins , and started again. :D A funny anecdote was, there was this Indian "looking" attendant at that place. One of our guys started talking with him in Hindi . The guy blinked for a few moments , and then confessed that he was actually Mexican and the owners had hired him to pose as Indian since it was an Indian restaurant. :haha: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I play in a medium priced public course wherein the annual membership is $600. But I have to pay 15 USD cart fee every time I play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
