Bust your diet at Buffet 101

August 2, 2013(late post)

My vouchers (c/o Ensogo) will soon expire so my sister and I decided to use them. Buffet 101 is located at the 2nd level of Robinson's Magnolia. The restaurant will open at exactly 11am. If you're a little early, you could sit on one of the chairs located outside. 


 

 

 

I wouldn't enumerate the names of the dish that I ate but I'd give you tips based on my experience:
  • Cheese balls - these contain potatoes and a bit of cheese. I honestly thought that these were mozzarella balls. They should've labeled it as 'Potato balls' instead of deceiving diners. It's not bad tasting but it barely had cheese in it.
  • Steamed shrimps can be ordered right where the aquariums for shrimps are located - near the dimsum area.
  • Cheesy brocolli and cauliflower - get more of the cheese :)
  • Prime rib - you have the choice to have it cooked through but it would be tough then. I tried the beef gravy, peppercorn gravy and the mushroom gravy. I preferred the peppercorn over the other two.
  • I loved their yogurt, chocolate panna cotta, and coffee panna cotta.
  • Pata tim - it was ok, but you could just as well skip it.
  • Fresh salmon at the Japanese area is better than the spicy fried salmon.
  • Chocolate pudding with oozing chocolate inside and where you put hot milk - we didn't get that "soft, oozing" chocolate. "That Chocolate Thing" of Bubba Gump still is the most comforting chocolate dessert for me.
I didn't get to eat the other dishes because I was too full. :(  If I could redo the whole buffet experience, I would've ordered more of those steamed shrimps, tasted the pasta dish, skipped on the cheese ball, got myself some of those fresh salmon fillet instead of the fried and spicy ones.
