I come here pretty often as my family likes it (and I like it as well), I never bothered to review buffets though as there is so much to write about. cafe too however is really good so i decided to take up this challenge to do so. they are currently having a Singapore promotion. but then again it is shangrila, they always have sing/malay/thai influenced dishes - plus they always have the indian counter which is their specialty.appetizers:4 choices of cold seafood: whole lobster, snow crab legs,
they are currently having a Singapore promotion. but then again it is shangrila, they always have sing/malay/thai influenced dishes - plus they always have the indian counter which is their specialty.
appetizers:
4 choices of cold seafood: whole lobster, snow crab legs, conch in shells and whole medium sized shrimps. a variety of condiments are served alongside. lobsters are very fresh and cooked just right - but the tips of the claws feel a bit overcooked. crabmeat is very fleshy and tender. conch is however a bit tough but otherwise very fresh. did not try the shrimps.
sushi counter - 3 types of rolls and nigri sushi. sashimi counter very crowded as usual.
salad bar is impressive - the extensive assortment of condiments is worth mentioning - there are anchovies and other dried seafood, many sauces as well. I don't really like the Singaporean salads though - I found the rojak a bit salty, and the pickled vegetables could have been sweeter. I can't say it was bad though, just not my cup of tea.
Hot entrees: at the international counter there's beef, poultry, choices of seafood, soups, chinese BBQ, vegetables and dim sum.
There's an indian counter that's always there. I especially like their tandoori chicken.
They usually have a pasta counter but it's currently an Indian kema counter, making Indian pizzas.
The noodle station is permanent. good variety of noodles, meats, vegetables and condiments. and 3 choices of soups.
Desserts is impressive, as usual. Shaved ice is their current promotion. my favorite though is their souffle. crepes are made to order as well, with mix-ins laid out in front.
another very pleasant dinner indeed! I daresay cafe too is still one of the best buffets in town, if not the best. I grew up coming here and have fond memories of it. this is certainly one of my personal favorites. good for family, gatherings, celebrations, or just a relaxing dinner.
