BuffetGo, a company designed to help eliminate waste by selling restaurant food before it’s thrown out, has launched in Los Angeles. The company purchases whatever food is left at a participating restaurant before it closes on that day; BuffetGo customers can then purchase that food online and pick it up. A recent meal from a Vegas Seafood Buffet was priced at $5, down from the regular price of $20. The company launched in Los Angeles in September; it has been operating in New York City and Chicago since earlier in the year. Some of the participating Los Angeles restaurants include Hokkaido Seafood Buffet, Double Tree and Hilton Hotel restaurants, Bluefin Sushi and Seafood Buffet, and Vegas Seafood Buffet.
