FEASTING takes on a whole new meaning at the Spice Market Cafe’s Sunday Brunch, where the food is so delicious and plentiful, one is inclined to eat like there’s no tomorrow.
A veritable glutton’s paradise, the popular buffet at Shangri-La’s Rasa Sayang Resort and Spa’s signature ‘theatre kitchen’ restaurant boasts a cosmopolitan spread of cuisines from all corners of the world.
Fresh from the sea: Spice Market Cafe cook Heng Eng Seong preparing the Seafood on Ice station
Playing backdrop is the Spice Market Cafe’s modern, air-conditioned dining area, whose hardwood finishes exude a classy ambience in tune with the resort’s stature.
For a feel of the tropics, opt for the alfresco area, surrounded by centuries old rain trees and lush green shrubs, with the calming sounds of flowing water echoing in the background.
The appetiser station, abound with many varieties of cold cuts, smoked meats, cheese and salads, is a great place to start off. Those with a tinge of craftiness could also toss up their own bowl of greens.
But the Seafood on Ice section is where the crowds normally gravitate. Here, there are mussels, oysters, yabbies and prawns — all so fresh you could almost smell the ocean — ready to be devoured.
At the buffet, chefs also take centre stage, preparing dishes ala minute before the diners’ very eyes.
From freshly rolled sushi to aromatic meats fresh out of the Tandoor oven and hand-pulled la mian (noodles) in varying flavours, it’s quite a delight to watch the culinary artisans handcrafting your meals.
Over at the carvery, expect to find items like Beef Wellington or Roast Chicken, sliced up to your request.
If that’s not enough, there are a host of equally delicious offerings awaiting inside chafing dishes. From Oysters Bienville to Chicken Souvlaki Skewers and Deep Fried Chicken Wings with Local Spices, it’s an all-encompassing line up.
With so much on offer, one could indulge to the point of not having any room for dinner. But pace yourselves, as the indulgent treats found at the Dessert Island should not be missed.
There’s a sinfully amazing selection of western and local sweets, cakes, puddings, pastries, candy floss and ice cream, that melts your resolve. If that doesn’t tempt you, then the ever-popular chocolate fountain probably would.
The buffet spread, changed weekly, also includes free flow of freshly squeezed fruit juices. Do keep a look out for the resident clown as well, who’ll conjure up cute balloon animals and objects for you to take home as souvenirs.
Kids are given special consideration too, with a Children’s Corner dishing up treats the youngsters love — burgers, hot dogs, nuggets and chips, just to name a few.
What’s more, there’s currently a lucky draw where one lucky winner would walk away with the weekly prize of another Sunday Brunch for two.
All weekly winners would also be in the running for the monthly grand prize — a two-nights’ stay in a Premier Room at the resort’s exclusive Rasa Wing, with daily breakfast, afternoon tea, canapes and sparkling wines.
The buffet, priced at RM80++ for adults and RM40++ for kids, is available every Sunday from 11.45am to 3pm. For reservations, call 04-8888888.
