A very big thank you to Vessi for sponsoring this video!
Emissions Offset for the round trip flight (Vancouver to New York) was purchased from Less Emissions (www.less.ca/en-ca/) for 0.76 tonnes (ref 24567).
Sometimes, a vacation is more than just a vacation, or nice meal out is more than just a nice meal out; this was one of those times. While traveling and visiting New York, I decided to make an excursion to Charlestown, Rhode Island and head over to The Nordic Lodge. I've heard they have a lobster, king crab, seafood, and prime rib buffet and there's some significance to this seafood feast. You see, about 2 years ago, my friend Lois and I wanted to visit the Nordic, but decided to postpone it a few months....well, we all know what happened next. Fast forward a year or two later, and I'm now back in New York heading over to seafood buffet to pick up where things left off. And I could not have found a better place than the Nordic to start things off.
As good and plentiful as the seafood and food selections were, it was the people that made it special (both from the servers & hosts as well as the fellow patrons). Feels like family. And with the great food and the great people, I would certainly consider this to be one of the best Seafood Buffet in the US, if not the best!
The $125 buffet at The Nordic was an amazing experience with massive king crab offerings, lobsters done to perfection, and many great cuts of meats and international offerings. Oh, and certainly don't forget the desserts from cakes and confectioners, to a well stocked Haagen Dazs ice cream bar with endless sundaes and milk shakes!
Great atmosphere and welcoming servers and hosts, this clearly was one of the most enjoyable meals I've had. If you're in the area, or are around the New York or the surrounding areas of Rhode Island, this is definitely my highly recommended place to have a memorable (and large) meal.

The Nordic Lodge:
• The Nordic: thenordic.com
• Cost: $125 for the dinner seafood buffet held only on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays
• Address: 178 Nordic Trail, Charlestown, RI 02813, United States
Thank you to you all for joining on this amazing seafood dinner experience! Happy dining everyone!

Take note managers, happy staff add to the atmosphere of any service industry. The staff also seemed comfortable being filmed, I suspect it might be the outgoing nature of most Americans. I’m glad you had a good time Tim. Buffets outside of Vegas are very interesting. 🍴🍴🍴🍴🍴Keep it up!🥂❤️

Thanks again David! I hope you get a chance to go and it's actually quite comparable to the cost of a Texas State Fair ;-). It was a great experience and I think your kids would love the ice cream sundae bar! The clams and oysters are quite interesting, they seem a lot more brinier out east than on the west coast! Very different; and very good. Cafe Sierra and The Nordic is a very close one. I believe Cafe Sierra actually has a greater selection of items (and all of which are good). I think what set this apart was the hospitality there; food was amazing also and while it was hard to show, those lobsters at the Nordic was huge...(not the canner lobsters). Actually, from behind the camera, it was really the good natured and welcoming/attentive hosts and servers that made it special. Anyhow, can go wrong with either place.

I truly enjoy your videos. You set a table manners and buffets manners. Your choosing of food remind me what my mother taught me. When taking food from Buffets get one or two of each because tasting that way foods will not be wasted. I like the way you choose how many & passing those not of interested at the moment or present. Great & respectful manners. God blessed you Tim Lee!!!
