When I was growing up, one constant in my life was eating at the Chinese Canadian buffet. You know the one, it has a tacky name that somehow incorporates the words dragon and lucky. The one that I remember most is the Golden Dragon near Hastings and Willingdon. I doubt that it is still there but it wouldn't surprise me. It is almost a given that ev...
