Our dinner group decided to have get-together at peach garden miramar on 30.6.2014. food was ala carte buffet at S$30.80++ and 3 paying 1 free, quite good deal really. :-)
the food was generally good, better than our last group dinner at ban heng orchard central on 25.4.2014. the service was very good too, friendly & jovial, and we all decided to give a substantial tip afterwards. it was also 1/2 the price & better quality than the one i had recently at restaurant home on 25.6.2014.
#1 char siew (a charcoaled grilled pork neck) was good as usual.
#2 roast pork was good this evening, crispy & tasty, with the mustard dip.
#3 pork floss egg plant was good here. the egg plant batter was very light & the texture & taste combination was excellent.
#4 drunken chicken looked processed in appearance. taste was ok with wine infused flavour.
#5 yuzu prawns was very good, crispy, prawns were fresh & the slight citric yuzu flavour was great.
#6 likewise the wasabi mayo prawns.
#7 fish fritters was average. fish was so so, the crispy batter was quite well done.
there was a limit of 1 order of soup per person.
#8 the sharks bone soup was ok. i had it the last time. i thought the lie tongs (例汤), soup of the day, at tunglok & imperial treasure were better.
#9 i tried the crab meat/roe sharkskin this time, it was quite ok.
#10 the deep-fried soon hock was good, better than when i had it last time. meat was fresh, moist & tasty. we had 2 orders.

#11 kurobuta pork was ok.
#12 the sautéed beef was overly sweet & artificially tender, edible but not much in demand by the diners.
#13 the braised beef briskets & tendon was quite good. we had 2 orders.
#14 pan-fried venison. this not really a favourite for me, no different from any coffershop zichar stalls.
#15 pating fish was a favourite for me. this time it was quite well done, very fresh & tasty. i suggested to the manager that for a live fish, it would be better presentation to serve a fish head portion or 1/2 a fish rather than in cut pieces. he said the fish might be too big so they had it served in cut portions. hmm..actually most pating served here in singapore were 1kg or 700g fish.
we had 3 different vege. they were all good.
$16 cauliflower & brocoli was simple & tasty & great colour combination.
#17 string beans were good too, though the thinnest of sliced scallops didn’t contribute anything to the dish.
#18 spinach with 3 eggs was quite standard, mediocre actually & a very large portion.
most of us ordered 2 or 3 dessert each.
#19 i did not try the 杨支甘露. it should be quite standard.
#20 the bubur hitam with ice cream was a crowd favourite.
#21 the ice jelly was kind of plain.
another joyous dinner with good food, company, fellowship & memories.

went with sis, b-i-l & a friend to peach garden miramar on 8.5.2014. they were having a 3paying 1 free promotion for 4pax at S$30.80 weekdays. 
#1 the drunken chicken was 1/2 frozen & did not look great (my one looked better..haha) but the taste was good! much better than mine. 
#2 we all liked the pork floss & also the light battered egg plant, very nice dish! 
#3 deep-fried soon hock was ok, above average, perhaps a little better than the recent one at ban heng on 25.4.2014, but not the best.
#4 the pork ribs were flavourful. meat not the most tender, just slightly chewy, taste was good.
#5 crab sauce & tofu were good. look-wise seems something missing in this dish..maybe some garnish or greens.
#6 pating my favourite fish. this method of preparation not the best. the minced ginger or HK steamed style much better.
#7 it seemed really odd that a roast pork dish in such a restaurant could be bad, but it was, much below par!
#8 we were already very full when i spotted the char siew later & had to order it. this was very good! almost imperial treasure standard. 
#9 each diner was only allowed 1 order of soup. i had the lobster claw sharksfin soup. it was very average soup (not even as good as any lie tong aka soup of the day from tonglok restaurants or imperial treasure), and the sea cucumber sharksfin seemed no better.
#10 venison was very average, like any zi char stall.
#11 kurobuta itself was tender & tasty. this chinese way of preparation though not my favourite.
#12 fried rice was good, fragrant! 
#13 these were very nice, much better than wasabi mayo prawns preparation. :-) may try these at home.
#14 this was like a joke. the scallops turned out to be like 1 medium scallop (or maybe 1/2) sliced into 10 pieces. you need real skills to slice it so thinly. a case of disappearing scallop dish. 
#15 surprisingly, the indonesian prawn dish was very good. prawn was good & fresh & the curry sauce was very good.
#16 this was ok, pretty standard.
overall food was quite good for an ala carte buffet, a lot better certainly c/w ban heng.
the service was good, efficient & friendly throughout except when paying the bill. we were charged a cry hefty S$1.50pax for ice water & S$1pax for towels, so there was an extra S$10++ tab on the bill. it was a bit high but ok except that we asked specifically at the beginning when deciding whether to order tea & was told by the server that water was FREE, and tea was S$2.50pax. i told the girl closing the bill. she said water was as charged (next time i need to record the conversation. haha!). anyway, the total bill after 1pax free came to $120nett=S$30nett per pax so i was quite ok to just pay it.
i would come back again but buffets were very heavy & not ideal for me to do too often.

Yu Sheng had a generous serving of salmon. Suckling pig skin was crispy. It was a pity that they did not serve all of the skin to us, they stir-fried the remaining suckling pig + meat for us. You could taste distinctly the suckling pig even though the meat was cooked with other sauces.
Shark's fin was nice and tender. Big whole piece of shark's fin was served Enjoyed the abalone dish, but my abalone was tough to cut with the knife provided. Abalone for each person was big
Fish was soft and tender rice, rice ball and nian gao were ok. the nian gao was not sticky and not overly sweet, so it was pleasant to eat.

Service was good, staff attentive, always helping us to change our plates and scooping individual dishes for us.

Lovely wedding venue and the restaurant is cosy and cooling. Service is quite good and friendly. Among the dishes I have ate, my favourite will be their fried thread noodles with seafood and also the sharkfin soup. The thread noodles are very fragrant and not soggy. The gravy used in this dish is also flavourful and not too oily. The sharkfin soup is very sweet and thick in texture as well. Large pieces of sharkfin can be found in the soup which really taste great!

The lunch buffet offered by Hotel Miramar Peach Garden, is pretty good for its cost. It costs just over $30/person for the a la carte buffet. Dishes are plentiful including many meat and seafood dishes. One dish that was pretty unique was the coffee pork ribs. The coffee taste was quite strong and the ribs were quite flavourful. Also good are the fresh prawn dishes. The dim sum offerings such as the siew mai are also competent with fresh prawns and meat though not outstanding.

Being a dim sum lover, I had to try out peach garden's dim sum! The dim sum here is pretty standard in terms of variety, but this chain really does the classics well. I really liked the glutinous meat dumpling, which is touted to be very hard to make. However the one here is just perfect. It is crispy on the outside and gooey and chewy on the inside. Encased in the crisp and chewy shell is the most delectable meat filling savory and saucy. The buffet cost about 30 dollars a person.

First time trying out the Peach Garden's buffet at Hotel Miramar. Was honestly quite pleasantly surprised by the food as almost everything was really tasty. One dish that stood out was the delicious Wasabi Prawns which were so fresh and crunchy. They were all evenly coated in the most delicious wasabi mayo sauce which was just perfect. Really enjoyed the delicious prawns and we ordered it twice!

The cod was steamed and drizzled with soy sauce. It was fresh and satisfactorily so.

The lotus root was also crunchy to taste and of course, we ordered those flowy molten salted eggyolk buns just for the heck of it.

As with most other Chinese restaurants during the festive period, only set menus were available for order. Lunch was a 7-course affair ($68++ per person) but because the portions were kept small, we didn't end up stuffed and bloated for the rest of the afternoon.

We had

1) Salmon Yusheng, fresh fish but very standard fare

2) Braised Shark's Fin Soup with Crabmeat, starchy and richly flavoured, with plentiful chunks of shark's fin interspersed with shredded crabmeat. The texture of the crabmeat seemed of the frozen variety but at least it didn't have that awful frozen fishy flavour

3) Pan-fried King Prawn coated lightly with a butter cream and plum sauce concoction. Sliced seeded chillis and flash-fried curry leaves lent a subtle peppery heat

4) Braised Duck Web with Dried Oyster in a black moss-filled beancurd skin pouch. I love the soft chewy beancurd skin and the moss, together with the mellow oyster sauce gravy slathered over it, but I gave the duck web and dried oyster away. I've never liked eating these so-called "Chinese delicacies"

5) Fried Glutinous Rice with Chinese Sausage soy-infused rice was sticky, slightly charred and flavoursome

6) Chilled Aloe Vera with diced snow pears and coral grass, very balanced and light

7) Pan-fried Nian Gao, soft, sweet and chewy

My sister recommend this restaurant as to celebrate Mother's Day. The food is delicious and we can have repeated order on most of the food. Some of the Tim Sum is self service at the side, example: porridge, noodles, carrot cake, desserts and etc. That day i m so full, food is good till i can't resist to stop eating. See when i have the chance to go back and eat the buffet again.
