Anyone tried the buffet spread @ Melt Cafe (Mandarin Oriental) ? The seafood spread is rather good and they offer BBQ food (weekend only - Fridays & Saturdays only). The dessert spread also quite good ā¦ My DD loves the chocolate fondue

have been to the regulars/usual ones, also thot of trying somewhere new......
Read abt Carousel @ royal plaza, very good reviews of good spread of food but ex leh......
The hi tea there very very good :drool: :drool:
Always super crowded, even during weekdays!![/quote]thks for yr review on Carousel....
Oh hi tea huh....i yet to check on theirs, only happened to see the quoted price for wkend dinner is at $75++....
May i ask, do they offer any hot meat dishes for hi-tea,
as most hi-tea buffet spread are alike......
like laksa, rojak, popiah, assorted dim sum.....no craving for such already...
but we simply like the timing for hi-tea..... -

Ellenboriugh market cafe is also our all time fav.... :please:My other favorite buffet place is Ellenborough Market Cafe @ Swissotel Merchant Court. Usually go there for hi-tea. Love... love... love... the durian pengat!! Best :imcool: :imcool:
Their black pepper slipper lobsters.......
wow....tasty and not too hot, suits us.....
And yes, their durian pengat is one of the best so far....
Recently, their price has revised upwards, for dinner, think is priced at $52++.... -
schweppes:

My DS found the oysters so-so only..
They charge full price for kids.. -
Traders hotel cafebiz manager confirmed that they have not been serving oysters for their dinner buffet for some weeks already. And yet their staff confirmed that they serve oyster for buffet when I called them up to inquire n made reservations last Friday! Imagine how disappointed we were as we would have opt for another restaurant that serves oyster after making plans for this evening's dinner(babysitting plans etc). We learned from the manager that we should have taken down the staff's name when we make inquiries. Heck!
Can anyone recommend somewhere else that serves oyster? Think next time i'll give swissotel merchant court my biz instead of cafebiz as the formal serves tasty durian pengnet rather than frozen ones from cafebiz. Angry I didn't get to eat oysters! :mad:
Those long legs crab they served were a saver to the otherwise disappointing meal as both the scallops n mussels served were tasteless. -

The Melt is the best i've tried so far. I've tried, Rendevous, Ellenborough, Fullerton, Marina Mandarin, Greenhouse, Shang (The Line), traders, etc..... . I still prefer The Melt any time.
The other place i think it is not too bad is The Oscar (Conrad). Good value!!
I heard the hi-tea at St. Regis is good but i havent had a chance to try it yet -

when one cant have the food item which one specifically crave to eat in a particular buffet.
Btw, did u go for the 1 for 1 deal ( fr Mon- Wed) or the full-price buffet ?
i heard that for the 1 for 1 deal, std and food variety has lessen, wonder is it true ??
