National Day Dinner

We saw a deal online for buffet dinner at Royal Palm on National Day for $48 and a few of us decide to buy it to spend our first national day evening together. We are so looking forward to it as this is going to be a dinner buffet and we can get to watch fireworks while we dine. This buffet starts from 7pm to 10pm and it includes free flow of soft drinks.

 One of friend decide to buy this Singapore Sling Cocktail at $10 after many persuasion from the manager. This is an alcoholic drink, I don really fancy this kind of alcoholic cocktail but my friend manages to finish it.

 These are some of the stuffs that I have tasted for the evening. The chili crab is one of the hottest for the night, often wipe out quickly when they refill. The crab does not have much meat but the sauce is nice. The carrot cake is a little dry but still taste ok with the sambal chili they provide. The fried hokkien mee is not nice, dry and too salty. The sushi is ok, the ingredients they use are fresh.

 Gado Gado, quite nice with the nice balachan chili which is spicy and smelly enough and the nice satay sauce. I like this balachan chilli so much that I even dip it with crackers and the other food.

 Food choice is a little disappointing with not much choice but we like the feeling of getting to eat and watch firework at the same time.

 Jalan Sultan section includes Indian Chicken Tikka (tender & nice), Saffron Rice (very fragrant) , Assorted Naan, Stir fried Chilli Fish fillets (a little salty) & Mutton Ragan Josh (tender & no stinky smell) - This is probably the best amoung all the stations.

 Dessert includes Mango pudding with longan, Cold sweet Cheng Tng, Ice kachang action station & Oriental Fresh Fruit Platters. However, the Ice Kachang station was removed after a while!

Quite a lot of selections but unfortunately the food are either bland, too salty or overly sweet. Buffet supposed to be from 7pm-11pm but no more replenishment at 9.30pm. Even the drinks also stop serving at 9.30pm

 Cold soba, chicken & nasi bryani and gado gado
The soba was alright. The nasi bryani was very good, rice was soft and fragrant and chicken has smoky aroma. Gado gado was pretty tasty too, I love the sauce!

 Overall dining experience was decent, service staff was friendly but clearing of dishes and refilling of drinks was rather slow. Food wise, mostly mediocre. But we do enjoy the Al fresco dining experience and being able to see NDP fireworks while we dine
