New Park Hotel Peranakan Buffet

Went to this on saturday night with my parents. It is also Peranakan, coming to almost 40 per head, its slightly more expensive than the Merchant Court one, but definately more value for money...

Main dishes: fried cucumber rice, plain rice, fried bee tai mak (lao shu fen)... kueh pie tee, nonya mee (taste a bit like fried hokkien prawn mee) n satay which are damn good... EVERYTHING else was spicy except the braised pork belly n chap chye... the spicy stuff were crayfish, stingray, fish, prawns, buah keluak chicken, etc... they had a few more dishes then the Merchant Court one...

Cold dishes and salad bar: no rock oysters here, but they have tuna n cuttlefish sashimi besides the salmon. potato salad, prawn salad, chickpea salad.

Desserts: miserable n horrible... ice cream, ice kachang, little nonya kuehs n tarts, cakes, mango pudding, blackcurrant jelly, longan n red dates soup, strawberry moose. Only redeemable part was the gultinous rice with durian sauce, think thai style but with very very thin durian puree mixed with coconut milk to make the "sauce".

I just thinking if they have a nonya mee, satay n kueh pie tee buffet. these 3 dishes are really nice... But it seems like their Japanese buffet is more popular...
