Buffet

My parents took me here to try the a la carte lunch buffet. It wasn't crowded at all when we visited on a Monday; only about 75% full. I was feeling a little under the weather so didn't have a massive appetite but even then, I enjoyed the meal.
As usual, there is a section in the a la carte buffet lunch menu that lists the dishes which are limited to one serving per customer. Naturally, we had to have everything in there. Most were good. Here are the ones from that section, as well as other dishes that I liked (pictured clockwise from top left and ending in the centre):
• Braised mini abalone with oyster sauce - nice and tender; not rubbery at all.
• Deep-fried seabass with homemade lemon sauce - the very crisp fish went perfectly with the sour sauce and yup, every part of the seabass was edible.
• Crisp-fried crystal prawn with salted egg yolk - anything cooked with salted egg is usually yummy and this didn't disappoint.
• Stir-fried white stone clams with garlic and white wine - thumbs up for the light yet flavourful broth with fresh, good quality clams.
• Stir-fried garoupa fish in honey garlic sauce - loved the sauce and the fact that the fish is boneless, plus you can order multiples of this.
• Golden broth with sea cucumber and fish maw soup - sweet and satisfying.
• Oven cheese baked lobster - wow... a fresh whole lobster for each diner.
• Marinated soft boil egg with "foie duck paste" topping - I found the description intriguing and the taste pretty interesting.
• Wok fried seafood udon in laksa flavouring - I didn't expect to enjoy this surprisingly spicy dish as much as I did.

Do remember to allocate some tummy space for the dessert buffet spread. The "Thai red ruby" and "Organic green tea soy beancurd" shooters were especially fabulous. Rather oddly, they also had a pot of century egg, chicken and abalone clams porridge displayed next to the desserts. So don't miss out on that if you are into porridge.
