Le Meridien Buffet

For RM90++ per person for a buffet dinner on a weekday is rather on the higher side, I thought.
But when the dinner is at the classy 5-star Le Meridien next to KL Hilton at KL Sentral, I thought why not? They might have something new.

And so we went. All 15 of us.

Arrived at the entrace of the underground parking and our cars were inspected for bombs, maybe drugs or dead corpse and any explosive materials by several Gurkha's guard.
Scared that we are some terrorist disguised in office wear coming to bomb their buffet spread.

Finally, we arrive. Spread looks good at one glance except for 1 thing. When I started to help myself, I can't help but wondered. The spread wasn't anything to shout about at all lor !!!
In fact, a bit (okay, maybe a lil' bit more) dissapointed. I tell you why i'm dissapointed:

1. The grill section not happening at all. No scallop. No Lobster. No Lai Lieu Har (mantis prawn). The chef grilled those stuff in advance and leave it in the pot. When you eat it, its already cold ! It's like, they grilled it and leave it there for 1/2 and hour.

2. We ordered 2 plate of paste. The pasta on one of the plate came out waaaayyyyy before Al Dante. The other plate came out perfect. Not consistent.

So I ended up devouring couple of california roll and their grill cod fish with butter sauce. Ah, these 2 I personally like. I like I like I like.

My favourite part, DESSERT.

I personally think that, if I were to ever pay RM90 bucks for their buffet, the ONLY reason I would come here for is their DESSERT !

Quite unique. Maybe I'm a bit hutan, but I never heard or tried TEPPANYAKI ICE-CREAM before lor. And I have eaten chocolate fondue many times before, but I never tried WHITE CHOCOLATE, DARK CHOCOLATE and MILK CHOCOLATE fondue all at the same time. Yes, they actually have 3 types of huge choc fondue side by side. I'm delighted.

Pictures !


Dark, Brown and White chocolate fondue.

Ice-cream teppanyaki. 2 scoops of ice-cream of your choice. They have over 30 selections of toppings to choose from. Choc chips, corn flakes, dried figs, apricot, macadamia, walnut, almond, marshmallow, raisins....so many more. You can choose as may toppings as you want. The chef will mix everything up on a piece of cold plate.

Looks like a piece of shit.


My DIY ice-cream teppanyaki. The flavour of my choice and the toppings of my choice. You can't get it anywhere else in the world.
