Colony (The Ritz-Carlton, Millenia Singapore)

今天就一起随着花姐打卡新加坡自助餐天花板之Colony

Colony餐厅位于新加坡丽思卡尔顿美年酒店，以其豪华的自助餐体验而闻名，可以说是新加坡最受欢迎的自助餐之一。

我们娘俩都特别喜欢自助餐，于是早早预定在花姐生日这天来餐厅庆生。

但因为它的高性价比，所以也是自助餐厅中最难预定的餐厅之一。

Colony的装潢结合了现代与殖民地风格，墙上装饰着复古地图和明信片，营造出怀旧的氛围。

进门先冲甜品台，Colony的自助餐提供超丰盛的甜品，上次吃午餐的时候就领教过了，担心甜品台被“破坏”，一进门就先冲甜品是我的优良习惯

提供多种国际美食，包括中式、日式、印度式、印尼式、马来西亚式、西式和本地特色菜肴。

餐厅设有八个开放式厨房，提供现场烹饪表演，能够亲眼见证食物的制作过程。

这款牛腩真是特别软烂入味

Colony引以为傲的冰吧，提供新鲜的海鲜，如巨型虾、雪蟹腿、现开生蚝、贻贝等。刺身和寿司也是这里的亮点，切片厚实，口感极佳

终于开始我们最爱的甜品，今天的目标是每个都尝一遍

居然还提供无麸质面包，对于我这种面粉过敏的人来说真是惊喜

一共吃了三盘甜品

亲爱的花姐，生日快乐，想让你成为这个世界最幸福的妈妈，既做你贴心的小棉袄，又做你踏实的军大衣，我爱你哦🥰你现在每天的任务就是负责开心和貌美如花就可以啦

最后看一眼蒸笼，提供各式中式点心，如蒸饺、烧卖、虾饺和包子等，味道正不正宗不知道，我们已经无福消受了

Colony的服务质量真的是没得说，当天为我们服务的Fiona，非常细心和礼貌，确保我们有一个愉快的用餐体验，真是非常感谢她。

It’s a must eat dish when you are here for colony buffet

Broth is thick and taste delicious

Went to Colony 2 weeks ago on Saturday Lunch time and was pretty amazed at their spread! Many dishes to choose from but I particularly enjoyed their Pork Floss Deep Fried Prawn, Roast Meats, and their Desserts😍 Only downside was their pizza but would say that the food quality in general is good and service is great too! Paid a total of $187.05 for 2 pax after gst n svc charge😇

I know, desserts are distractions designed by the buffet to divert you from where the money is, the meat & the seafood, but I can’t ignore these seemly sweets. I can’t, I’m not strong enough. Besides, everyone has a magical dessert stomach that manifests only when desserts are ingested.⠀
⠀
Colony’s dessert lineup might just be the most comprehensive one I’ve seen so far in Singapore. The Nyonya sweets like ondeh ondeh, rainbow kueh & ang ku kueh all earned the ultimate Asian accolade of ‘not too sweet’, but were all unremarkable otherwise. The real stars of the dessert were the chocolate bars, the refreshing orange sorbet, and the assorted pastries.⠀
⠀
I reckon that the chocolate bars are created in house, and I’m pleasantly amazed that they can actually compete with the established chocolate confectioners. As charming as the chocolate was, it paled in comparison to the perfection of the pastries. The Green Tea Raspberry was definitely the most aesthetically appealing one, and it was suitably sweet to boot. The sweet green tea filling & the raspberry glaze coexisted in harmony on a buttery, crumbly tart base, and the sweet balances with the sour superbly.⠀
⠀
As a chocoholic, I was smitten by the Chocolate Passionfruit Tart. The passionfruit was the zesty streak that enlivened the rich, mildly bitter dark chocolate tart, creating a decadent dessert that did tasted & felt oh so right. However, my favourite dessert of the night simply has to go to the breathtaking Baked Fruit Tart. The tart shell was beautifully buttery & captivatingly crumbly, and the sweet yet tart berry and assorted fruit filling was perfection. Sticky, sweet without going overboard, with a tinge of tartness from the berries to restrain the sugars, this tart is a tremendous treat to end the buffet.⠀
⠀
My body is so ready to get my stomach colonised by Colony again.⠀

And now we get to the meat of the matter, Colony’s sweeping spread of meaty marvels. The third meat that deserves special mention are the delightful Dukkah Spiced Baby Lamb Ribs. Thanks to the dukkah spice, the tremendously tender lamb ribs are stunningly savoury with a little smidge of sweetness, and the lamb itself bears only the slightest trace of gaminess. While the traditional mint jelly condiment is suitable for the lamb, the herby & subtly spicy chimichurri was a much better accompaniment to the luscious lamb.⠀
⠀
Of course, there are a lot more mouthwatering meats in Colony’s boundless buffet, and I’ve made myself hungry while writing this. And now I want-no, I NEED to go back to Colony soon.
