Penang Cititel Main Street Cafe offering Japanese and Italian Buffet Dinner on Friday which is the day we pay visit, RM79 nett for adult and RM40 nett for child under 12 years old, RM52 nett for senior citizen. The buffet only available for Friday, Saturday and Sunday only. Same pricing but for Saturday is Japanese + Western while Sunday is Japanese + Thai.

The restaurant is nicely decorated with proper counter for different food choice and the food presentation is nicely done as well.

Let get started our buffet with a cup of affogato, a cup of Espresso with one scoop of vanilla ice cream. Nice!

Or a cup of local drinks, nutmeg with sour plum. Sweet and sourish drinks that prepare our stomach for more food.

Assorted bread.

Over to seafood counter there is muscle, scallop, prawn and oyster. We try the prawn and it is very fresh, the oyster seem to be very fresh as well as i saw a lot people take a full plate and enjoy it, too bad I not really into oyster.

Sashimi and Sushi, assorted sushi available for selection. Tempura prawn and vegetable, my favorite.

Not only that, Salmon, Tuna and other Shasimi also served. This big plate was own by Henry, who is craving for seafood.

Assorted pickle and salad such as Chicken Nanbanzuke（Japanese Style Marinated Chicken）、Sesame Spinach、Panzanella（Italian Bread Salad）、Pasta Salad with Olives & Peppers、Italian Potato Salad with Sour Cream、Spicy Pickled Cucumber、Marinated & Roasted Peppers、Marinated Mushrooms、Kimuchi.

Over to hot dish counter, fried rice, fried noodle, chicken, lamb, beef, vegetable are all available. Highlighted dish such as Roasted Beef Tenderloin with Blue Cheese Dressing, rarely have dishes cook with Blue Cheese as it has very strong unique flavor but personally I like it so much. Lamb Stew with Olive & Roasted Pepper, sourish thick sauce cook lamb to tender and delicious. Other dishes such as Chicken & Mushroom Pot Pies, Grilled Salmon Teriyaki, Baked Polenta with Ratatouille, Chicken Teriyaki, Yaki Udon, Japanese Fried Rice…etc.

Japanese Steamed Egg aka Chawanmushi, extremely smooth texture with sweetness is just awesome.

Two type of soup, Miso Soup with Salmon Head and Minestrone Soup.

Gyoza,nicely grilled Gyoza top with vinegar taste just good.

Oden, my wife favorite as she always craving for Oden when we travel to Taiwan (Yup, Not Japan).

Fresh Fruits such as Honey Dew, Watermelon, Pineapple and Papaya.

So many dessert available here such as Cinnamon Ckae, Tatlet, Dorayaki, Orange Mousse Cake, Green Tea Cheese Cake, Chocolate Brownie, Cream Caramel, Tiramisu, Japanese Rice Cake, Bread Butter Pudding…etc. The list is too long to be listed here, honestly we can’t really taste all as it is too much dessert.
