Just only last than one month ago, I had buffet... now I'm having buffet again! But this time it is so much nicer than the previous buffet!
5 pairs of yin & yang at Cafe Brios
Live section whereby the chef cuts you a super yummlicious sirloin, then follow by salad bar and then OYSTERS!!!
Pretty looking desserts, fruits for the healthy people!, and ice cream for the unhealthy!
Cheese Counter!!! For me! Cheese lovers will be so delighted... One of them is Jersey Gold which is made from Jersey cow of course... which has high fat content! No wonder this is the best cheese in my opinion... some fishy stuffs, masala?There's a lot of Chinese dishes and Indian dishes which was not captured. Does not interest me... and is not very healthy la...... im a health nut... yayaya.
eh? Cheese counter again? Live section for some chinese soup noodles... Sotong...Now for the interesting part!
Everything was shared with my gf horrr... So pls don't think I am a glutton! although still alot... Hungry ma! Cos i went to the gym in the morning at 7am before the buffet!
These are my post-workout meal! Super high protein lor! lol
Appeitisers : Very fresh Tuna and Salmon
Cheese Stix with Cheese = Cheesy Cheese stix!Gold Jersey my favourite cheese, Fruit Cheese which is my second to Jersey Gold, Blue Cheese, and some wierd wierd unknown cheese.
Rojak Platter of Tuna, Sotong, Yu Sheng, Baked Char Siew Pau, Quiche, Har Kow and Chicken stuffed with raisins. I like the quiche in cafe brios! Alot of chunky fillings with a strong taste of custard.
Sirloin cut by the chef, Quite thick, and it is roasted not grilled... so healthier! yeah. Turkey Ham... another healthy choice... The white cubes on the top of the picture is actually Goat cheese... and it does not suit my taste.
Another plate of Sirloin for my gf... with cheese stick? haha. The black cube thing on the left is braised Beef ribs, very nicee and soft... but ribs is quite unhealthy... in fact... ribs from any animals are... fat...ty.
Time to whack the Oysters! Oysters with Tabasco and lemon is mine. Oysters with no tabasco and little lemon is my gf's. eeks. Mussels is quite nice with carrots and some spices stuffed inside.
Tuna and Salmon and Smoked Salmon!And the star of the plate is Tiger Prawns and the not so big prawns... Can I tell you how juicy and fresh and HUGEEEE they are! one plate is never enough... Anyway This plate is so healthy lor...
Everything is high in protein, close to zero carbs and zero fats... (that is if you dun suck of the disgusting Prawn head)... and salmon has omega 3!
and again...
and again... i told you... one plate is not enough!
The soup... is ok. The chicken stuffed with raisin is nice. The fish thingy is ok. The huge chunk of meat there is actually satay... instead of minced satay, this is a huge chunky piece of satay... unminced that is.
Halfway... I am missing the cheese again...
Creme Brule is nice... very creamy and the vanilla taste is very niceee... Then there is also Kiwi Umeya, Mango moose, Chocolate cake is very rich...
there is also more cakes, cheese cakes... and other unknown cakes not captured as well.
All in all... it was a nice meet up... and nice food...
that's it! byebye Cafe Brios.gotta study for German test, that is tomorrow!

That's too much for me to eat.... omg, but the oysters!!
I don't like buffets so I hardly go for any but the next time you're craving for one, try Melt at The Oriental. I heard it's quite good. And I'm sure you're be very interested to know that from 9-16 March, there's a 40% discount for buffet lunch on weekdays (usual price $45++) at The Line Shangrila. hahaha more gym...
Harmony - then u cannot go buffet liao... actually im also a small eater... but my appetite is only very good after a workout.. lol.
ice - thx for the lobang! but i dun wan to go for buffets anymore...unless "necessary"... lol.
the discount is very tempting thou, after discount is like only 20++??? haha... but nono.. im saving for 3 more buffets for the next few mths which i have targetted... lol...
saw the group photo which one is you?
goody - secret... =|
goodydaze: The one with the roundest belly! :P
Can try The Line at Shangri-La Hotel! superb spread of delicious food!!!
LM - haha.. u r soo smart! but i chose the picture whereby all the tummy is blocked so u cannot spot! lol...
The line is what ice mentioned... got 40% leh! LM u go?
40% discount?!! I want to go! but first have to starve for 1 week on sweet potato porridge to save enough...
LM - or buy 4D/toto...
It is amazing that you are planning your diet in a buffet... Interesting, doesn't food tempt u, I will really run for carbohydrates after a work-out... and the satisfaction is always so good... and I am those who take oysters without tabasco but with lots of lemon... hehe...
It is surprising to hear that Grand Copthorne Hotel have better buffet than Equinox Hi Tea.
By the way, how much is the buffet and is this lunch or high tea? Oysters are rare finds in lunch and high tea wor... sounds like a good deal...
Fen - Food does tempt me la...thought i already eaten quite a lot! and I would rather work-out b4 a good meal so tt my body will better utilise the nutrition...
and oysters w/o tabasco... no tinge of spiciness at all... not for me... at least u r better than my gf... she put soo little lemon...
I am still quite surprised by the fact that the smoked salmon at equinox was not replaced after it was finished... and the desserts variety is so few. For a dessert lover like u, i think u will definitely be so upset...
Oh... and this is lunch. probably that's y its better than equinox hi-tea, so in some way, im comparing apple to orange.. lol.
Total damage was about $35 per pax after 25% off! :)
wah... bad mouth abt meeee =P
the 40$ discount is tempting! at most can go dere eat abit..lyk a normal meal also worth it!
I think FG is the one with the best body. :)
I can't control myself at buffets especially if I see my fave foods / desserts. That is why if I can I give buffets a miss if I can.
meng - =P dun wan buffet already... no more buffets!
goody - me still not so bad... ehhehe
