Bite This! Alabama Buffet Earns Spot on National All-You-Can-Eat List
When it comes to food, the Bite This! Food Review has their forks ready to dig in. Tossing in a buffet in a foodie agenda is another culinary dream. You get to sample everything.
History of the Buffet
How did the buffet come to exist? “In the early 18th century, the Swedish concept evolved into the "smörgåsbord." This became a full-fledged meal, especially used to feed guests arriving from distant places,” said the Cookist.
The idea of the all-you-can-eat buffet made its way to the United States during the 1939 World's Fair in New York. According to Cookist, “visitors experienced a traditional smörgåsbord at the Three Crowns restaurant” inside the Swedish pavilion.

Buffet-style restaurants are abundant across Alabama, but Mashed has curated an exclusive list spotlighting the best ones in each state.
Alabama’s Best Buffet According to Mashed
Martha’s Place – Buffet and Catering
7780 Atlanta Highway, Montgomery, AL 36117
“Delicious comfort food prepared from scratch and made with love.”
You had me at the word “scratch.” I foresee a Bite This! road trip soon.
“Martha is in charge of home cooking,” said Mashed. It’s an “all-you-can-eat smorgasbord of soul food is accompanied by the restaurant's award-winning collard greens. Martha's Greens won an Iron Skillet award that helped establish the restaurant's place as a Montgomery staple.”
