Many government officers descend from the clouds in Komtar to dine amongst the kangtowless mortals on this ground floor.Some are regulars who have 'potential customers' sponsoring them.Others a gaggle of yikkity yakkety,shark feeding frenzy,opis makciks who keep piling on their plates keeping the the ice cream bin for last, you actually begin to wonder how much time they have left, before they have to change their figure shaping corset.
Some company bosses like to entertain here for two reasons,cos they can get good discounts and points,also because they can 'bump' into the bunch above.
If you are a company of two, you also get to sit next to empty 'reserved' for Japs tables. tapaued by tour companies.
Service staff is as expected of this chain,warm and friendly,personal when needed,yet knows how to keep their distance with just one thorn in their otherwise sterling track record.Refer to * below
Overall most of the foods offered on buffet here is typically average hotel fare.Really surprising considering that this is under the Shangri-La group.
Can't say the same about the Malay dishes (that is,if they have them on that day),these are much better tasting.
Their quiche(again,depending if they are on the menu) is pretty good but their roasts get snapped up so fast by the kangtow seekers and the kangtow hinters,most times you only get to see the cold unwanted mutilated cuts,they 'kindly' left behind.Which ends in you nursing a nice hot cup of robust coffee ,to calm down your nerves.
Nothing is memorable except for these below.
AVOID the chinese roasted meats counter,everything is bleaugh,the duck is smelly,the chicken is so so,even the rice is bongam.Only thing nice is the plain soup.Seriously.
Cute,miniature chocolate based desserts look better than they taste,a different kettle of fish compared to their per slice chocolate cakes which are much better.
*Most everyone gets up to refill their own ice water/air suam cos somehow,the waiters and waitresses don't seem to enjoy topping your glass up for you.
