Whooo the five of us have always wanted to go for a buffet tgt, and we finally did! xD Hahaha in fact, to make up for our countless occasions of failed buffet plans, we SPLURGED. I think it was worth it :D the food was fantastic and service was excellent ( I think the waitresses practice the cup-cannot-be-less-than-half-full rule? AND this waiter was so nice and patient as to take 5 polaroid photos for us using 5 DIFFERENT CAMERAS!) It was surprisingly crowded on a weekday afternoon :O mainly working peeps! Hahaha but there's enough to go around of course xD Oh and the Bar and Billiard Room (there's really a bar and a room to play billiard!) is right opposite raffles city shopping mall btw, we went a big round 'round the entire hotel before finding :X Anw, they had a good selection of everything (fish, poultry, salad, bread...) except seafood, which wasn't the focus of the buffet I guess with so much great food around! Mm there were only tiger prawns and oysters, but both were super fresh and super yummy xD Haha oh why just talk when I've got pictures to prove it? :)
Love the Old English coffee house look xD
Hmm the ceiling's practically ballroomish
Orchids, so Singapore hahaha
Yay cutlery holder! So hygienic xD
Clockwise from left: some potato cake thing, ratatouille ish veg, gnocchi, chicken schnitzel, grilled salmon, POTATO GRATIN (a million thumbs up for this!), and braised duck I think :)
The salmon was freakin awesome, amanda and I helped ourselves to generous servings xD There's also snapper in some tomato stuff and super good grilled cod too (really soft and I could practically taste the river in my mouth! haha I would've said 'sea' but cod's freshwater fish AHHAH)
Oh and they have this really cool and special endives, ham and cheese roll cooked in a gratin manner (top left) which was really good too! btw, this is an endive (had to google after eating hahaha)
Cheers for the smoked duck salad and smoked salmon! You can taste the pepper on the duck, and what else can I say of the salmon here? :)
Loved the tuna and salmon-strudel ish thing xD The pita bread was really cool too, esp with sooo many sauces for you to choose from! (baba ganoush, beetroot, duck and some other names which I can't rmr...) The prawns are huge, fresh and super juicy mhmmmm~~~ one of my friends (Suzz) ate SIX :O Hahaha she and amanda even had a prawn shell peeling contest cos we banned peeling with fingers (so unglam) and they had to struggle with their cutlery xD Su Xian won cos she practically ripped the flesh out of the shell! Oh but they provided us with the lemon water thing to clean our hands after peeling prawns (no need for that now!:)) Btw if you're adventurous, you can try the tomato avocado thing in the glass in the photo above. It tastes like a strange health concoction :X
Pasta from the pasta station! xD They have a lot of ingredients and different pastas for you to choose from! Haha the chef laughed when I requested for REALLY LITTLE pasta cos I didn't want to get full from too much carbo! (he really gave me very little that's why he laughed :))
DESSERT! The chocolate mousse cake is SUPER CRAZY rich! They also have a chocolate tart which is a little bitter cos I bet it's 90% cocoa... Oo and the eclair's stuffing's raspberry cream, not chocolate, surprise!! (not a very good one for my friends and I though hahaha) Creme Brulee was super mini, but super amazingly good! xD
ICE CREAM :D 2 flavours only though; mango sorbet and vanilla :) you can dress your sundae yourself with several condiments :)
muahahaha it's TWG tea!
Wen Man: "Almost ALL her photos are of food!!!"
Me: "I like to take pictures of food whadddd"
WM: "I don't, cos FOOD CANNOT SMILE!"
hahaha yea, but food can make ppl smile! xD
wen man looks stuffed!:D
Oh this isn't just a random polaroid :) Look at the chairs we're sitting on! They're for our bags actually hahaha feels like alice in wonderland xD
Another cool thing abt this place is that the toilet's underground! You have to take the stairs down from what looked like a secret entrance wheeee :D Kk that's all for now!
