Located at the 7th floor of Novotel hotel, this international buffet restaurant is known for its delicious crabs and diverse Asian cuisine.
Besides the usual Black Pepper or Singapore Chilli crabs, the Indonesia Chilli crabs are worth a try as the sauce is piquant and tangy. I have not yet tried the authentic version but I love this more than our local chilly crabs as they held a more robust spice identity.Staples of the festive menu includes the roasted turkey But it seemed like the strength lie in the pastas or risottos.
The Chicken Cheese Risotto was wonderfully dense, sticky and creamy, with a intensely savoury taste thanks to the liberal hand with cheese. How could one feast without festive desserts? Skip the dry festive breads such as Stollen, Pannetone and fruit cake, and just head straight for the Christmas logcakes. The Chocolate logcake and Vanilla Swiss Roll might not be glamorously decorated but the sponge were exceptionally feather light and soft, a model example that illustrated the idea of simplicity at its best. Incredibly moist and fudgy, the Chocolate brownie cube is also another unexpected gem not to be missed. Riding on the wave of rainbow cakes, the Square has also included a retro-style rainbow cake topped with rainbow Chocolate chips. With a moderately moist sponge and light cream cheese frosting, this may not fall in the elite category but still better than most mediocre ones in Singapore.
There are also assorted mousse shooters, bread and butter pudding, ice cream but nothing could ever beat the dessert made with King of fruit--Durian. Richened with coconut milk and gula melaka, the indulgent D24 durian pengat is so lusciously creamy and sweet that it could make your heart skip a beat at the initial mouthful. These would make some lovely spread on hot toasts.
