| Gourmet buffet combines with comedy theater
Smoked gouda gratin, lobster-encrusted grouper, and veal with cranberry and Frangelica sauce are signature items on the dinner buffet at the new Pineville Dinner Theater. They're creations by executive chef Cliff Ottinger, who says he enjoys elevating the buffet-style dinner format. "Never rubber chicken or soggy vegetables," he says with a hearty laugh. The new venue off Park Road combines dinner with live comedy shows performed by local actors. It opened in late July and is already selling out shows. Ottinger says he hopes to eventually catch the actual show. The kitchen staff works throughout the evening, moving on to desserts after the dinner service. Then they crank out late-night appetizers served in the Cameo's lounge, where many guests congregate after the shows.
