title: Semianniversary Part Two.
Was at Carousel, Royal Plaza on Scotts Hotel. Because we wanted only the best for our semianniversary. It was the MOST expensive buffet i've ever eaten in my entire life. My big fat idea of wanting an international buffet translated into two big fat people -- us -- and a big fat hole in the wallet. :/ But i must tell you that the price we paid for this buffet did translate into a very sumptuous meal. Not only was the quality of the food good, their variety can KILL. **Before moving on to the photos I must let you know that we only took a small portion of each food, and only repeated less than five items. Really. ![]() Cooked mains. Check out chicken rice ball on top left and sashimi on top right! I love the bamboo clams. Go for ones that are detached from their shells cuz they are more flavored and not sandy. ![]() Sides. You can prepare you own salad sauce! And skip the hargou. It ain't good. ![]() Seafood. Check out half lobsters, scallops, huge prawn with lots of 蝦膏 and uber big and fresh oysters... ...That's if you like it lah. We braved ourselves and tried the oysters but we really couldn't take it. I wonder why people like raw oysters. I prefer them fried with egg. Hee. ![]() White clams, more scallops. Not bad. Seafood's my personal preference. Too bad i can't do oysters. ![]() Hello lobster meat. Muahahaha. ![]() Half-time camwhoring. ![]() Hello dar. By this time we were quite full. But we die-die have to brace ourselves for the "last course" -- desserts! ![]() Plate one. Check out creme brulee and cheesecake. ![]() Plate two. Check out the mousses. ![]() Plate three & four. Mudpie's not bad. I enjoyed the nonya kuehs. Their variety of desserts is CRAZY. I doubt we took every item actually. And we were so full we had to give the chocolate fondue a miss. :((( I'd definitely want to visit carousel again. When i'm richer that is. Next time round, i'd learn to be selective in my food choices. Because the variety can kill. Thanks dar for the wonderful meal. Happy semianniversary! :)) |
