Buffet 101, at SM Mall of Asia, boasts of its international cuisine and five-star hotel feel. As per the two, check!
As many as I can count for these review, here are the food selection for Mon-Fri dinner at Php 939 that they have:
- American- lamb, steaks, chowders, a few breads etc.
- Seafood- scallops, oysters and several kinds of fish for cooking
- Japanese- maki & sushi, tempura, soba
- Italian- pizzas and helpings of pasta
- Mexican- nachos
- Chinese- dimsum, asado pork etc.
- Salad & Cold Cuts- greens, DIY and the concocted jellies and fruits; ham etc
- Desserts- crepe, halo-halo, waffle, gummies and candies, cakes and ice creams
As my general rule, I roam around the entirety of the food selection first. Then after greens, I go straight to the expensive foods. Suggest better ways if you have :)
Pros:
- Overall the food quality was fine.
- Lamb chops, US Prime Ribs, yummy! Tried well done this time but ought to always be medium rare.
- Seafood you can ask to cook. And my friend commented, it's fresher than Vikings (even the Japanese sashimi).
- I love potatoes and there were so many kinds of these inside. But don't eat too much, it's cheap compared to how much you paid and it'll make you fool, I mean full, at once.
- I love the shakes, only I hope they took out the seeds of watermelon first. It's awkward to spit.
- Well for others this might be a con, there's a lot of viand. But none of which I like so much that I ignored them.
- They have crepe station, too! And waffle station! And taho!
- Gummy bears, worms, candies whatevs for grabs! Though don't take a plateful of it, just like what I saw in the lady's.
- Better desserts than Banzai's. And if you love Red Ribbon, they have it here, too.
- Unli cold drinks
- Fruits!
- And speaking of, with draft beer section, whoah!
Cons:
- Not too many selection compared to, at this point, my benchmark: Vikings. After about the third round, I don't know what to eat anymore.
- I always start with a salad. Wait, but their crouton was bread pan?
- Unlike Vikings's delectable ice cream, we have a again a buffet who loves Nestle/ Selecta. Whichever.
- Why do they always have makis and sushis? Well, I don't eat these anymore than one because it'll bloat me twice faster.
- Only one fondue/ fountain which was chocolate
- I don't think I saw tea or any hot drinks. It'll be a good way to digest them.
- I didn't enjoy their dimsums, located on the farthest side, especially the hakaw.
Next, I'm looking for a buffet with burger bites. Where to?
