Potentially hazardous foods that would normally be stored refrigerated should be left at room temperature for no more than 2 hours. Less time is even better.
Places that specialize in buffets can handle this several ways. One is to place the serving containers in refrigerated buffet serving tables and/or on beds of ice. Another is to not put everything out at one time. Refills are kept refrigerated and brought out as needed.

∙ 14y agoThis depends somewhat on whether heating is provided for hot foods and cooling for cold foods, since the real determinant is food temperature. However, as a broad rule of thumb, about two hours is the limit in an interior, temperature controlled space. and basically if you leave the food for more than 2 hrs the food will go off and start to stink

Which is more expensive a buffet or a sit down?
That depends on how much one eats. If you are a big eater, who is often still hungry after a typical sit-down restaurant meal, then a buffet would be better. If you tend to have leftovers from a typical sit-down meal, then a buffet would likely not be a very good value for you. Of course, this also depends on where you are going. I think the average buffet cost is $10-$15 per person. If you go to an expensive restaurant, then you will be paying more than that.
