Birthday lunch buffet @ E&O Hotel

It was my husband's birthday and since he loves to eat buffet, I always bring him for one every year. This year I decided to book for Equatorial Hotel's lunch buffet at Nada Lama after having short listed both Equatorial and E&O hotel as the possible locations for the celebration as only these two hotels serve in my opinion, acceptable weekday lunch buffet. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, I had to change to Sarkies Corner at E&O Hotel at the last minute. Fortunately, I managed to secure a reservation two days prior.

My favourite Otak-otak
Steamed fish
Crab
Soy sauce chicken
Mixed vegetables
Seeing as it is a Wednesday, a working day, most of the patrons are considerably of the older generation. We were surrounded by aunties and uncles and even those as old as our grandparents. Hehe... But we did not mind, we rather enjoyed the peaceful and slow atmosphere.

Tuna sashimi and salmon for all~~~

This is my husband's first time here and he was impressed by the wide spread of food selection. He could not decide where to start. Everything looks good, he ended up taking a bit of everything and going for seconds and thirds. I, on the other hand, only had eyes for the cake and dessert corner. I love all the cakes, ALL of them. Unlike many other hotel buffets that I have been to where their cakes are not the main star and therefore they only serve a few types of cakes and they are usually those normal cheap ones that you can get at any bakery, E&O hotel buffet cakes are way nicer and they have many choices, all with different flavours. I have tasted cheese cakes, chocolate cakes, brownies, chocolate cookies, fruit tarts, bread puddings, jelly and pies! Too scrumptious for words. I think it is already worth it just to eat only the cakes alone as the cakes are Rm14 per piece usually.  :D

More cakes! slurp~~~
Cakes....
My sinful plate of desserts~
And they serve two types of cream soups with add-any-amount-of-croutons-you-want! Yummy~ And I love the fact that you can make your own coffee from the coffee machine just like St. Giles Wembley Hotel. They also serve a type of fruit juice that I can't identify, but it tasted a little like passion fruit juice. 


I can never say no to coffee!
Just when we thought we have explored all the areas, we noticed there is more food that  you can order to prepare on the spot at the corner: noodles, char kuey teow and pasembur corner. But we were too full already, so we decided not to order any.


Char kuey teow, anyone?

Pasembur
I just love cream soups with  croutons
Noodles corner
Ice-cream time!
La Cremeria ice-cream yummmy~~

My bowl of ice-cream... every bowl is a work of art hehe
