Went on a sunday lunch timeslot 12pm onwards. It was quite crowded with many people waiting outside the restaurant. It has been a few years since I last had their buffet spread. Saw that they are doing a 50% promotion off the total bill by paying the selected debit cards (OCBC/POSB, etc).

Honestly, it was definitely not worth it paying for the full price with not much variety of the food that they offered. I will give it 2/5 even though I am paying for half the price because the food & spread was very mediocre. I remembered they used to have a prata station where the chef cooked it on the spot per order but I guess not anymore.

The only food that you may get your price (which are protein) worth it were the oysters, raw salmon, clams, prawns, crabs, mutton, chicken and fish. The chicken satay was alright but the beef’s version was bad.

In terms of carbs, got your usual laksa, rojak, fried noodles, fried rice, roasted potatoes, cheesy minced meat, kang kong, broccoli,and some cold appetisers like jellyfish. The sushi was pretty meh as it is just your standard assorted sushi which you can get it at your local sushi store.

They got variations of your kuehs, icecream and pastries which I am not really a fan of (cause it’s too sweet). If you have a sweet tooth, this section is for you. Had their chocolate icecream which you need to scoop it on your own. It was rich and tasted good. The other flavours were strawberry and vanilla.

Wanted to get their fruits but it ran out, so managed to get only their pineapples which were disappointing.

A plus point will be that the servers are actively clearing your plates whenever you are off to get your food.

Honestly, I don’t think I will be back for the buffet as there are definitely better options elsewhere to get your money worth.

The restaurant needs to work on diligently topping up of food as it is a buffet spread and most of the food are close to empty whenever I (and the rest) wants to take a serving plate of it.
