Buffets aren't really my cup of tea. But a pal told me "Its international. You'll love it". So there we were on a Tuesday evening ready to go Mexican. I must confess that I have not really done much Mexican before so I was kinda excited. I felt a little like Speedy Gonzales. I was a wee disappointed none of the staff wore Mexican but I was quick to forget since food was brilliant! It wasn't just about variety (with each of thematic for the day, they will still have some local and other International delicacies to add to the variety factor. Brilliant right?) I loved the quality and I think that is what matters!
Seafood on ice. They were definitely generous and fresh. No complains of tummyaches etc from any of my buddies.
salmon is always welcomed
fresh oysters are a must:D
Cheese were quite plentiful too...
Salads of every kind and interestingly was the oyster shooters. Every glass had a few oysters in it. Interesting! Add a squeeze of lemon or more tabasco if that is your kind of tea.
Potato salad
Grilled bell peppers
Grilled tomatoes with feta cheese

Oyster shooters
A not to be missed is the Roasted Rib Eye. Succulent and hot from the oven, this was a camping ground for some of us:P
The pasta here were yummy. Done just el dente, they can prepare it in various preparation as you wish. This makan buddies of ours opted for bolognese, aglio olio and cabonara. The cabonara was superbly rich! And I tell myself that I must return when they run their Italian promotion on Thursdays.

Before I forget...the pumpkin cappuccino was yummy. Some of us went back for our second helping. And coupled with their fresh breads that was one of the better ones we have seen in buffets, this is a good reason to start carbo loading during dinner:P
A comforting pumpkin cappuccino with good bread does wonders after a crazy Tuesday

The desserts were happening. I remember a pal who hit the dessert booth before anything else. And you'll be amazingly pampered with both local and Western desserts.
As if desserts weren't enough, we had ice cream to contend ourselves with. And also a whole selection of fresh fruits. One should always be imaginative. Why limit fresh fruits to where they are? Bring them over to the chocolate fountain:D I discovered chocolate fondue goes really well with dragon fruits and watermelon!
succulent sweet strawberries
