Lime @ Parkroyal Pickering


Was supposed to head for Restaurant Week at Lime for steak and foie gras, but after looking at the buffet line up, I decided to have The buffet rather than the restaurant week. No regrets!

The variety was quite decent I have to say. Asian corner with noodles, Malay, Indian and Chinese and ohhhhh a chef that cooks your vegetables imprint of you! It's a vege corner where u pick whatever vege u want and the chef cooks it infront of u! 

Heading to the raw.... the salmon sashimi and oysters were great! Fresh too! Salad section was good just that the cheese section was rather small. 
The best was the.... dessert section!! Was big and tasted great! 
Service was great too! We asked for a particular dessert to be topped up and when they did, they came to our table first to serve it to us! 
Great attitude, good service and very nice place!

The dessert was TDF! Awesome! 
Reminded me of Patisserie G's G Spot cake though.

Triple Three Buffet



I got attracted to this buffet for a reason. 
FOIE GRAS!

Triple Three at Mandarin Hotel has different themed buffets everyday and Monday is...... 
Foie Gras Frenzy day!! 


So how was the buffet overall...?? 


I have to say spread was not too bad. The normal fancy stuff I guess.


Indian section:

The butter chix and curry was good but Maybe you could ask for freshly made naan or prata. 

They have a variety of garlic, cheese and butter naan but it was darn hard! 

This was cos It's all pre-made! So when I ordered, he just heated it up. Same goes for the prata. 

Dessert Section:

A variety of cakes but nothing in particular that caught my eye. Normal fare indeed. There were macarons but were normal. The ice cream flavours were yuzu, green tea, vanilla, strawberry shorbet and chocolate. Have to say say the vanilla and Green tea mixed together was a nice combi: ) 
Sad to say, I missed the bread and butter pudding!
was the only thing I was looking forward to.
It was only 9+ but they didn't refill the dish! SAD!!!

Seafood:
Seriously, they have some AWESOMELY FRESH oysters!!! 
with their red wine vinegar and wasabi tomato puree (Which didn't have the wasabi taste-yum!) 
Pure heaven! Super fresh and tangy! 
Sashimi and other seafood were nice as it should. 

And last ....... the FOIE GRAS...... 
Indeed worth the $$$!
This was the first time I saw foie gras put on radish! 
And I realise that it's really a good, healthy and interesting way to suck the oil up! 
Usually foie gras is put on bread or whatever western stuff they use, but radish is relli a nice alternative! And It's yummy! 
OK back to the foie gras. It was served in small portions and It's super yummy and not too oily! Thumbs up! ↖(^▽^)↗

Well, I may head back Maybe next time if I'm really really hungry cos I'm not a buffet person. I'd rather eat a particular cuisine than an international buffet. But a foie gras buffet.....  DEF!
And the price....  much more affordable than Basilico, another place that serves foie gras buffet.
If you have a DBS card, there's a promo where two ppl end up eating at $158nett! What a steal!

Oh yes yes... complimentary parking for every $100 spent! Cool max!!
