I was just reading up on the closure of Foodstar in Sunshine (all-you-can-eat restaurant that opened in the 1990s). Growing up in the west, I used to frequent Sunshine Village cinemas which involved walking past this fine establishment. I would always wonder who actually went to eat there, as it looked absolutely terrible. And how it stayed in business so long - it was always mostly empty. A friend who had gone there several times, forced upon for family events, never had anything good to say.
Not too long ago, I looked up the Google reviews with some friends to see if anything had changed, and they are incredible, especially the owner's responses. And the owner's closure statement does not disappoint. Goodbye Foodstar, we will miss you.
