Thanks to one of you, dear readers, Casablanca edged Maharaja by a single vote to earn our "Best Lunch Buffet" poll.

Milwaukee's best lunch buffet, 2010: Casablanca


The votes are in, and the winners have been selected for OnMilwaukee's Best Dining 2010. The results of this readers' poll, including an editors' pick, are available in this series of articles that run all October long during Dining Month on OnMilwaukee.com.

Once again, Brady Street's Casablanca, 728 E. Brady St., takes the top spot in the OnMilwaukee.com best lunch buffet poll, though it edged Maharaja -- which finished third last year -- by a single vote. It was tight face for us in the editorial office, too. We love them both.

If you're like us, you enter any buffet with a little devil on one shoulder and a little angel on the other. The little fella dressed in white says, "sample the fruits of this lovely cuisine, but take it slow, kid." Meanwhile, the sizzling hot demon on the other side urges you to go back and back and back, leading you to stuff yourself silly.

The all-you-can eat buffet at Casablanca seems an endless array of completely vegetarian and vegan options, from the usual offerings of hummus, couscous, baba ghannoj (baked eggplant pureed with tahini, olive oil, lemon and garlic) and perfectly fried falafel (ground chick peas and vegetables, formed into balls and deep fried with Middle Eastern spices), to more unusual -- yet delectably smelling -- entrees such as tahini pasta (dairy-free), eggplant potatoes, mixed vegetable stew, spinach pie and sweet carrots baked with garlic vegetable sauce.
