    Of the many vices visitors indulge in while in Vegas, chef Kris Yenbamroong of Night + Market says buffets have the most allure for him. The escapist quality, he says, is what makes them unique.

    Mark Crane is the chef de cuisine of Wicked Spoon, which buffet aficionados describe as the ultimate buffet experience. He guides Evan Kleiman through the endless offerings from kale salad to bone marrow.

    Plus, LA Times critic Jonathan Gold digests the buffet experience.
