This all-you-can-eat in Flushing, Queens, specializes in the Korean dish tteokbokki — rice cakes in a variety of shapes and flavors, but noodles also available. These are combined with a choice of broths and sauces — including curry and carbonara —along with other throw-ins that run to lobster balls, sausage, and mushrooms to create a hot pot of unlimited renewability. A fun time for experimental eaters.

Plataforma is a real Brazilian churrascaria, where meats are grilled then borne around the room by black-clad servers. When you see something you like, stop them and they’ll slice freshly grilled meat onto your plate. At dinner meat choices include 13 varieties of beef, chicken, pork, and lamb, but you also get to visit a sprawling buffet of vegetable and salad sides in a Brazilian vein, and free dessert is also part of one all-in price.

This wonderfully named spot in the shadow of the 7 train in Sunnyside looks like a factory pilot plant inside, with concrete floors, high ceilings, and exhaust pipes rising skyward. One all-in price gets you all-you-can-eat meat from over two dozen choices (our favorites: beef brisket and pork bulgogi), plus all sorts of soups, porridges, and side dishes, plus the banchan — request a refill when original servings of kimchi and others run out.

East Villager Kikoo offers sushi and sashimi in all-you-can-eat portions, the former including hand rolls and all sorts of fanciful cut-up maki rolls. Tempura is another specialty and it poses the question, how many fried shrimp could you eat? Other Japanese dishes like udon, teriyaki, salads and appetizers also available.

This grand two-level space dramatically lit like a Broadway show offers all-you-can eat barbecue, hot pot, or a combination of the two. For hot pot, there are a choice of eight bubbling broths, some spicy, some herbal (you can pick three at once), into which can be swished the usual wide selection of vegetables, meats, tofus, noodles, fish balls, sausages, dumplings, etc., etc. The meat selection for the barbecue is similarly broad ranging

Though this place in Coney Island, right across the street from Luna Park, bills itself as a seafood buffet, that buffet is a virtual, contactless one. As you request dishes, they are brought fresh to the table, which makes a very long sequential meal possible. You might start out with spicy shrimp, then move onto raw clams (a Coney Island favorite), blue crabs with Cajun butter sauce, fried sea bass, and finally mussels in black beans sauce.
