Tonight was my first time to try the beffet at Tseung Kwan O Crown Plaza, and I would say it was overall more of a disappointment than suprise. Firstly arrived at around 8pm saw the whole area was fully seated, the table they have arranged for us was next to the hot plate area, but between tables were so close that my elbow almost touches my neighbor's elbow. There were salad bar, sushi and sashimi, soup station, cold plate and cheese section. Supposing the time I arrived should be very busy and
Firstly arrived at around 8pm saw the whole area was fully seated, the table they have arranged for us was next to the hot plate area, but between tables were so close that my elbow almost touches my neighbor's elbow.
There were salad bar, sushi and sashimi, soup station, cold plate and cheese section. Supposing the time I arrived should be very busy and expecting there are a lot of food to bring out or replacement, but the cold plate and the cheese section were practically emptied. Since the moment I arrived till I leave, non of those mentioned was refilled. The smoke salmon was unpleasant quality, the Thai raw Prawn and Sashimi was lukewarm that might be the reason why I spent my night in the bathroom. The soup I had was so salty that was undrinkable no wonder why no one drinks it. Due to my seafood allergy, my friend had some of the seafood cold plate but his comment wasn't so great. "The prawn was sweet, the oysters were great but tiny in size, but the clams weren't clean properly, the couple that I tried all had sand more importantly the crab meat tasted frozen and unfresh."
As the hot plate section, the roasted beef D-Rump was really tough that my knife can't cut through the beef. The veg they refilled was raw, and very hard to swallow. But the surprising dish that shocked me the most was the beef check stew! It was so soft and tender as it melts into your mouth. The grill bar was excellent, the lamb was juicy and everything were quite unexpectedly good. My friend enjoyed the most was the melted raclette cheese, which you don't find them in many restaurants or buffet. Also the host forgot to offer one of the white card, which I can't comment on a special stew that I really wanted to try.
Finally the desert area, they offered fruits, chocolate fountains, some cakes, ice cream and tea and coffee. To be honest, all the cakes tasted nothing special. The fruit is seasonal, and the specialty for tonight is Durian pancake which tastes pretty good.
Overall comment, the choices of food weren't so great, I would say is even lesser then all you can eat restaurants. The lack of staff might be one the reason why they are not very attentive, even noticing the tables were left dirty over 15 minutes. The hygiene I would be questioning specifically on the sashimi. But the price comparison to everything the beffet had offered is high, therefore if you have the money don't come over to try.
