The food is reasonable quality but nothing spectacular that makes me want to go back everytime.

Dim Sum @ Peach Garden
We went to the outlet at Novena Garden.
The variety served for dim sum was very limited. Nevertheless, the quality of the food makes the trip very worthwhile.
Beancurd roll
Har gau
Deep fried prawns wrapped in vemicelli
Fried Singapore-style Carrot Cake
Siew Mai
Steamed BBQ pork bun
The best custard bun I ever had - creamy custard filling with salted egg (Yummy!)

Would definitely love to try the dim sum again.
Their custard bun is the best I ever had.
If only there's an outlet in the East as well...

Buffets in Singapore
I was doing some research on the best buffet this week and realised that well I have been to several buffets already...
Some of the places that I have tried to date
1. Marriott Cafe
This was one of my first buffet that I went while in JC days.
At that time, buffet at Marriott was expensive for a student...
I have been here more than 3 times at least. Of which, 2 was during their Christmas spread.
And this was the first place when I splurged close to 80 bucks for the Christmas Eve dinner.
Will I come again?
Comments
Their dessert spread is very good, both quality and variety i.e. there are two different sets of desserts served during buffet.
I love their Christmas spread as well.
2. Ellenborough @ Merchant Court
Still remembered searching in forums for nice buffet places during my university years as well.
This was supposedly very value for money buffets.
Been here several times, as well as their crab buffet season.
Will I come again?
Comments
I love the durian pengat as I can savour the durians without having to get my hands dirty. =P
3. Straits Kitchen @ Hyatt
Tried both their lunch and dinner during my university days.
They have a wide variety of Malay, Indian, Chinese food.
Will I come again?
Comments
Nothing against it just that I would prefer to try out other buffet places...
4. Oscars @ Conrad
We started having our annual birthday celebrations here in the recent years as they served Boston lobsters on specific days of the week.
Will I come again?
Comments
They have revised their prices up and no longer serve Boston lobsters anymore.
Doubt I will be there since the highlight is gone...
5. The Line @ Shangri-La
Went during their birthday celebrations this year.
It is the longest line in Singapore and is quite pricey.
Will I come again?
Comments
I wasn't very impressed though.
Maybe there was so much hoo-ha about it being the longest spread and hence have had pretty high expectations of what it would be.
Was quite disappointed.
6. Cafe Brio @ Grand Copthorne Waterfront
Brought my cousin and her boyfriend during their recent trip to Singapore.
It was during Chinese New Year and I must say they have a very good spread.
Will I come again?
Comments
Definitely. Would love to try the buffet spread again as we did not manage to try everything the last time round.
7. Global Kichen @ Pan Pacific
Tried the buffet spread recently.
They have very weird layout The buffet areas are at obscure corners of the restaurants. For example, you find the starters at some room, while the main dishes are well-positioned. And at one corner beside is the remaining dishes.
They serve a variety of tea but limited desserts, about 6 to 7 types only.
Will I come again?

I do not like the layout of the place and the limited spread. They have the smallest dessert spread amongst all the places that I have been to.

They have a wide buffet spread but somehow the food does not appeal to me.
It is either too oily or too bland...

Vesak Day
Went to Geylang to pray today as today is Vesak Day.
Vesak Day is to commemorate Buddha enlightenment.
During Vesak Day, temples will have the ceremony - Bathing of Prince Siddhartha
This symbolises the purification of one's unwholesome deeds with wholesome deeds.
Took some pictures of the Vegetarian food we had.
Fried Rice with long beans and Fake Liver
Curry Vegetables
Fake meat balls
Tofu
Samosa, Hashbrown and Bun
Fried beancurd

I can eat FINALLY
Could not wait to start eating after removing my stitches...
Had a total of 3 crabs and 1 fish
We had two female crabs with thick bee hoon soup - the orange bits are the eggs.
This is a 1 large male crab fried with bee hoon and a bit of butter.
And lastly, 1 fried Soon Hock fish - tried the brain of this fish as well.
