I can't taste all the foods here because of my limited stomach space, I wish I have 2-3 tummy to fill all the foods here, am I greedy?! :)
I tasted the baby lamb, nice and succulent with the kuzi sauce. The aromatic satay sauce was unique and special which I never try before! Nice! We were indulged in the Sashimi that evening...the Salmon and Tuna Sashimis were fresh with the perfect texture.

The Unique Creation from Chef Bing

We had a wonderful evening having the buffet dinner at Harbour Cafe! I'll definitely back for more...

A common question from friends : "How's the food?" Well, I cannot taste all the foods in the cafe, and understand that everyone has a different taste bud. You have to try it yourself. What I can say is...some were average and most were Yummylicious! Especially dine in the nice environment, I would say...I love it!

The price for the buffet dinner at Harbour Cafe from 10th July until 9th August 2013 is RM108++ per pax, 6.30pm - 10.30pm. If you visiting the cafe in the big group, you may contact the Hotel for better price.

Last, I would like to thanks to Ms Aidah - Communicaton Manager, Mr Alan Wong - Executive Chef, Mr Bing - Chef and Mr Avraam - F & B Manager for their warm hospitality and the delicious foods.
