Buffet, also called meal, sometimes called buffet, is a kind of informal Western-style banquet popular internationally, especially in large-scale business activities. Its specific practice is that no formal meal is prepared, and diners are free to choose food and drinks during the meal, and then stand or sit, freely eating with others or alone.

The reason why the buffet is called a buffet is mainly because it can mobilize the subjective initiative of the diners during the meal, and they can do it themselves, help themselves, and arrange and select dishes within the established range. As for the fact that it is also called a buffet, it is mainly because the food provided is mainly cold food. Of course, provide some hot dishes in moderation, or provide some semi-finished products for diners to process themselves.
