Assorted Pickle

Fresh Fruits Counter, If you look closely to the watermelon you will found that they actually nicely cut the watermelon to remain a small side of skin which allow you to hold it nicely. I like the mix fruits stick as well, small portion with many selection.

Assorted Drinks such as Fruit Punch, Roselle Juice, Wintermelon with Longan, Tamarind Juice and Kurma Juice.

Prawn Cracker

Roasted Duck is one of the hottest dish throughout the buffet line, personally i found the roasted duck to be very flavorful and succulent. I took 3 plates and finish all, by the time we left the restaurant i saw only left with half duck, so grab it before finish.

The sauce provided for duck meat also very tasty.

Noodle Station

Char Koay Teow, quite a nice flavor Char Koay Teow, it has the wok hei and the right sauteed taste with big prawn.

Roasted Whole Lamb. Lamb are brushes with spices all over and roasted to perfection, the outer skin has very strong herb flavoring and taste salty but meat are juicy. I like the crispy skin that fill with strong herb flavor with lamb gamey taste. Nice!

Lamb and Chicken Satay is another must, traditional Malay satay. It is actually meat stick which are either Lamb or Chicken. We found the lamb satay to be extremely flavorful and not chewy, while the chicken satay taste as good. From the picture below you can see how much we love the stay, we take one full plate and finish it.

Whole lot of dessert at Dessert Counter. Tiramisu, Raspberry Panacotta, Strawberry Cheese Cake, Double Choco Brownies, Manggo Puding, Fruit Tarlet, Dome Chocolate Hazelnut, Blueberry Cheese Cake...etc. Some of the signature Malay Kuih are available as well. I found their dessert to be above average and the variety is really impressive, the blueberry cheese cake taste so good that has very strong cheese flavor with moist texture. The Mango Pudding has natural mango flavor instead of artificial taste, cream puff are soft and fill with great filling.
