Top 5 Seafood Buffet Restaurants

The call of seafood is hard to resist. And most buffet restaurants in Singapore couldn’t agree more as evident in the dedicated sections they provide just to host a wide array of these fresh delicacies. As for you dear readers, how often do you see yourself stocking your plate with the lobsters, prawns, oysters, and all other delights from the ocean? Seafoods can be tricky, though. If they’re not fresh, then they’re not worth the space in your tummy. So if you decide to splurge on these, make sure that you get your money’s worth and go to the restaurants which serve them really fresh. Here are 5 restaurants we recommend: 1.
