Swissotel Merchant Court - Ellenborough

went to Swissotel Merchant Court for buffet dinner with farmz at the Ellenborough cafe on friday.

the durian pengat was ooooooooooooooooooooh!! it was definitely the highlight of the evening. shared 3 bowls with friends :P however, we could tell that the first serving we had early in the evening was the nicest & thickest.. it became slightly diluted as the night goes on



black pepper crayfish :) it's literally "gone in 60 seconds" whenever the waiter brings out a new tray. it's not bad!


didn't take many pictures cos my battery was dying :P plus, i was too hungry la.. hehe

anyway, my verdict of this buffet is that the only thing worth going for is the durian pengat. the rest of the dishes were so-so only. was quite irritated by the staff throughout the evening. they have a tendency to attempt to clear the plates when we still have food on the plates that we want to eat. we were literally keeping our eyes on the staff's prying hands whenever we walked away from our seat or just talking to each other.

received an sms from mr porky's sis-in-law this evening:

it's ok, i know what to aim for this time round already :P
