Triple Three Restaurant at Meritus Mandarin

September 20th, 2010

365days2play

Buffet dinner at Triple Three Restaurant some weeks back. At $80+ per person, the price was quite steep. Luckily, there was a 1 for 1 promotion going on, which then made the buffet a steal. The buffet selection was not as large as the ones at Oriental Hotel Melt Cafe or Shangri La The Line. The dessert line was also somewhat lacking. No signature rich and luscious looking chocolate cake for the eyes to feast on, and too many local kueh types.

However, what impressed me was the number of stations where food is prepared only after you order! They had a tempura station that was constantly churning out hot and crispy tempura prawns and mushrooms. They had a sashimi station where you get to choose the raw fish you want before they slice it. At the pasta station, you got to choose the type of pasta you wanted, the ingredients to go with it, and the sauce. Goodbye soggy pasta. And the best one, they even had a Teppanyaki station where you can get beef steak cooked on the spot! Can you beat that?

At $40 plus dollars if the promotion is still on, I am seriously considering going again!
