Cost?
Adult $12.80 ++
Child $9.80 ++
Personally, I'm quite a fan of buffets because during a buffet, it's a time for a good gathering among friends and it's a time for you to try and sample a larger variety of food with no limitation and at a fixed price!
Anyway, this simple entry is just going to feature some dishes (with little elaboration) along with my ratings.
Appetiser- Keropok! (We didn't know we have to pay extra for this=.=) Very tasty leh! Very addictive as well!
Drunken chicken
3.5/5
Steamed shrimp dumpling
Very good prawns but pretty dry skin.
3.5/5
Steamed pork and shrimps dumplings
Very tasty!! Order more if your stomach allows you to=)
4/5
Sliced pork trotter with jelly fish
Well, I ordered this for the jelly fish instead of the pork.
Jerry fish was pretty tasty but it didn't impress me.
Overall, 3/5
Sliced boiled pork with tasty garlic sauce
I can barely taste any garlic in this dish. It's pretty plain.
3/5
Steamed beancurd topped with spicy minced meat sauce
Personally I quite like this dish but my boyfriend finds it too plain.
I would give a 3.75/5
Vietnamese style spring rolls
Very VERY crispy skin but they weren't very generous with the amount of fillings though. Overall, it's still pretty tasty=)
3.75/5
Steamed pork ribs with black bean sauce
Usually you'll find the amount of meat on pork ribs pretty miserable. However for this case, there were pretty little traces of fats but the portion of meat was bigger than those usual ones that we buy from dim sum shops. A little lack in flavour but still acceptable.
3.5/5
Deep fried chicken marinated with prawn paste sauce
Pretty average. Till the point I can't remember much about this dish.
3.5/5
Hot and sour soup
Pretty average as well. It would be better if the soup is it's more spicy- especially for a spicy eater like myself.
3.5/5
Steamed chicken claw with chilli sauce
It's just skin with fats. People on diet shouldn't order this dish. The sauce was pretty tasty though.
3.5/5
Steamed BBQ pork bun.
The standard for their char siew bun seems to have dropped. It used to have more fillings and the taste was stronger in the past.
3/5
Mini egg tart
Again, same as their char siew bun, in the past this dish used to be better. Now the egg seems much dryer (as though it has been made and left there for ages before it's being served).
3/5
Xing Hua wanton soup
My boyfriend finds this a little plain whereas I found it not bad. Especially the skin of the wanton which is soft and pretty silky. They weren't generous with the amount of meat given though.
3.5/5
Rice dumpling with sesame filling.
This dish doesn't look appetising initially but looks are really deceiving! The dumpling is really soft but too bad it isn't very kissable due to the peanut toppings=p
4/5
Wok fried french bean with spicy dried shrimp.
Tasty but pretty oily. Somehow I feel that the shrimp topping seems to have spoilt the taste of the french beans which tasted pretty good on it's own.
3.75/5
Crispy fish skin with salted pepper.
Not a dish for those with weak kidneys because this dish is really salty. Yet, it makes me wanting to eat more of it!
3.75/5
Pan fried carrot cake.
Pretty bad. Lack taste, lack texture.
2/5
Fried rice with chicken and salted fish.
Sad to say, this is one of the worst tasting fried rice I ever ate.
Tasteless fried rice. Yet they were VERY generous with the portion.
2/5
Fujian style meat roll (Wu xiang)
Again, looks are pretty deceiving, this wu xiang packs quite a punch! Too bad I was too full during that point of time if not I would have ordered more dishes of this!
4/5
Pan fried chive dumpling with chicken.
Not a fan of chives. This dish is really oily and not appetising for me.
2.5/5
Malay fried noodles
Interestingly, this is a chinese resturant but yet it's malay fried noodles is WAY MUCH BETTER than the chinese fried rice. This is a must to order if you love mee gorengs- with a hint of chinese style.
4.5/5!
Sesame cream
Well, it seems to be very difficult to find very good places which sells good sesame cream. Up till now I've yet to find one which really satisfy my tastebuds. This one over here lacks the texture because its too watery. However, the taste managed to cover up for it's flaw (thankfully).
3.75/5
Chilled mango cream with sago and pomelo
Wow wow wow! This is a must to order dessert if you're coming over for this buffet because I managed to slurp up every bit of this cleanly even though my stomach was on the verge of exploding! Creamy and very flavour-ful!! Yum!
4.5/5
