We were there on Tuesday evening & it wasn't crowdedThere is an option of Set meal or Ala Carte Buffet (can't remember the price, but it was aout $25), so we opt for the buffet.

There is an option of Set meal or Ala Carte Buffet (can't remember the price, but it was aout $25), so we opt for the buffet. There are 5 soup bases to choose from, namely: Irresistible Sichuan Spicy; HealthyTonkotsu Soup; Bak Kut Teh Soup; Secret Recipe Duck Soup & Thai-style Tom Yum Soup. All of them choose the Healthy Tonkotsu Soup while I had Tom Yum. No complains from them, so I reckon it's passable. Tom Yum is mild sour & spicy.
Variety of sauces were available at the center of table of the restaurant. Of which, only 4 catches my eye. Sesame Peanut Sauce (dilute & no sesame taste.. a little salty also); Spicy Peanut Sauce (not spicy & no peanut fragrant); Spicy Chilly w/bean (Not spicy & it's sweet cos of the bean) & Thai-style Chilli (not spicy; has a hint of sourness). Of the 4 sauces I tried, Thai-style Chilli proves to be the best dip for the night.
There were more than 50 dishes to choose from, but... ... the portion were very small, so I suggest you order more if you;re a big eater. How small is the portion? Eg. 2 portions of prawns turn out to be only 8pcs (for 4 pax)! However, the ingredients were all very fresh.
Apart from the fresh/ raw ingredients, there are also more than 15 side dishes to choose from. Braised Pork Belly in Tea Sauce is very flavorful & the pork is very soft. However, it is so fat you see a layer of oil on the pork belly when it has cool down!The buffet also comes with a dessert of the day. Most of the staffs here were from China & they were pretty friendly & attentive.
