Sakura International Buffet (Orchard) 

 22 Jan 2009 at 9:22 am

Had lunch there yesterday with my colleagues, decision being made upon it's relatively low cost (S$70 for 3).

The soups are pretty solid, Sharksfin (right...), Cream of Mushroom, Herbal Black Chicken (highly recommended) & Tom Yum (needs more spice).

Shashimi-wise... the lack of mekajiki's a major blow, but not much complaints otherwise.

Their lamb chop's a die die must try, no gamey taste at all! My colleague commented that I must've consumed an entire animal's weight in meat... plus the black pepper gravy (which they use for their chicken chop as well) really goes down a treat.

Baked oysters... somehow I get the feeling that the oysters are no different from the ones used in the 蚝煎 found in hawker centres. When asked if they were fresh, I replied that it's impossible to tell under all that cheese (yum!) & tomato paste.

All in all, a pretty good buffet joint at a pretty decent price.
