Jewelle's Review of Atrium Cafe, Empire Hotel

Review authored and originally posted by Jewelle on her site.

We redeemed our HSBC credit card points for lunch for two at the Atrium Cafe, Empire Hotel and got to enjoy it last Sunday.

This time, unlike my usual buffet eating strategy, I decided to be conservative and had appetizers before I checked out the main dishes or even desserts. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the appetizers served were tasty, especially the salmon-something served on a spoon. But there were too good, I forgot to take any pictures.

They even have a good children's section and Eu was able to have her own food.

Teddy also joined the outing
Hubby, as expected monopolized the oysters section, helping himself to several plates, claiming that their selections this time are smaller than the last time we had lunch there (months ago).

Oysters

More oysters



More oysters!

Main dishes were alright, with a wide variety of dishes from around the world. There's Fried Thai Squid (which I liked), Roast Beef, Soto, Lasagne, Iranian Kebab and many others I could not remember now.

The Japanese food section were boring as per hubby's verdict. Desserts were good too. Cakes tasted as good as they looked. However they did not have any cheesecake or did I missed it (?).


Overall, for a B$30+ buffet, it was well worth the money.

- I only went to WyWy once and I think they are unreasonably over priced for a normal restaurant. Service sucked like hell. A little smile would have been better.
-I think they hv been victimised by someone who has some grudge against them!
-To close the matter for once and for all, we need another independent lab test to reconfirm.
