back in the late 50's what we know to be the buffet was referred to as a "Smorgasbord" and was something that a few high end restaurants offered once and awhile on a Sunday as a unique way to attract customers....then it morphed into a regular business model over the years

I suspect that the buffet will survive in some manner....most likely it won't be self serve though
