Chocolate Fountain, you can dip fruits like strawberry, dragon fruit and marshmallows. It is definitely a wonderful experience if you haven’t seen a Chocolate Fountain before. The melted chocolate oozing like a fountain is really a sight to behold.
A variety of seafood is available at the buffet, like mussels..
Fresh crayfish
Fresh prawns
Fresh lobsters
Fresh crabs
Beef salami, chicken salad and vegetable salad
A dedicated staff is assigned to grill the satays, feel free to take as much as you want. There’s even lamb satay here.
Breads and buns
Sushi is also available. But we found the sushi rice was not fully cooked, felt a bit hard. The unagi was tasteless, awful and cold. They didn’t felt like they were freshly prepared..
Then there were a lot of very delicious looking desserts with very artistic decorations. Doesn’t the decoration resemble a crown on top of the cake?
Some chocolate cakes and strawberry desserts lined up for grabs
Cheese cake
Please note that only coffee, tea and plain water are available free of charge. If you wish to order fresh fruit juice, wine or other drinks, those are considered extra charges.
Desserts served in cups and pastries, don’t they look delicate?
The nicest dessert among all for me would be the one most behind. It’s a small piece of chocolate cake prepared using a lot, and I mean a lot of chocolate.
This looks nice, but no. I didn’t quite like it because it felt too moist and wet. And the shell shaped thingy is actually made of white chocolate.
Chocolate mousse with lotsa cream and topped with a piece of chocolate painted with gold. I am not sure if it’s real gold though lol. If it is, then this must have cost a lot to prepare.
I remembered reading another forwarded email about this international buffet where dim sum being was served. I think that’s only available for lunch buffet? Can anyone clarify on this? For your information, the buffet I attended was held at night. And lastly, all photos are for reference purpose only. Happy buffet-ing!

Strawberry with chocholate fountain sounds great dessert after all the fresh shrimp and crab. My cousin told me that there is a cafe serve fruit with melted chocholate. But the chocholate is not served as fountain. It serve in a pot with candle to make the chocholate melt.
wow seems very delicious.. i’ve always heard about the nice food at there but never try before.. the price is quite expensive.after tax shuld be Rm100++??
But as i know that their Buffet lunch on sunday is only Rm58++, just the matter is their serving on sunday also is that good and variety of choices?
vk: hi nie, well for me the RM100++ price is quite justified for the huge spread and choices. If you are not a big eater then maybe it’s not that worth
Not too sure about their Sunday buffet though
did anyone know what is the buffet theme for wednesday nite??
The RM96 is for lunch buffet or dinner buffet?
vk: The blog post was about dinner.
