Bar and Billard Room @ Raffles Hotel

I have been eagerly waiting for the lunch after reading so many good reviews of their buffet. To make sure that I will not be caught up with work, I even took leave specially for the lunch appointment.

The restaurant has a cosy ambient with its dark wooden furniture and colonial style setting. There was a huge variety of food and all were of top quality. Service was also excellent. It was definitely one of the best buffet experience and I never regret taking leave to taste all the excellent spread of food.

I will let the photos tell its own story... enjoy.

Seoul Yummy @ Novena Square 2

Walk passed the restaurant and noticed that it was having a special set meal promo for 2 at $33.99 ++. It came with 6 complimentary side dishes,  2 hot/cold barley tea, choice of 1 noodle/rice dish, hotplate and soup. I thought the price was quite reasonable so I settled for the restaurant to have my dinner.

Both the drink and side dishes were refillable. The barley tea was nothing special but basically barley water. The side dishes were decent but did not impress me much.

The 6 side dishes 3.8/5

For the choices of the main, I had the fried saba fish, mixed vege stone pot rice with beef and spicy kimchi hotpot with pork. Fortunately, the mains were good and value for money. The portions were also quite big considered that it was a promotional set meal.
