Following
his lead, a couple of us ventured to sungkai at the rather royal name brasserie. We had a long table of 13 adults plus some kids and that showed our enthusiastic feelings in trying out this new place. When
she and
her, two nominees from
Simpur Bloggies Award of the Specialty Blog category, gives their thumbs-up for their food, you can be sure the chefs are doing something right with their dishes.
The moment that you arrived at the restaurant, you must wonder where you are exactly in Brunei. It gives that 'out of the country' feeling, not because it was located close to the Airport but the decor and ambiance created gives it a more international setting. I definitely loved it!!
The open concept of the restaurant is very much welcomed by all of us as it gives a relaxing and casual atmosphere for you to catch up with family and friends while enjoying the good food. First stop for sungkai definitely is the cakes corner that are full of Malay cakes.
Last night, most of the food presented were of Asian cuisine with a kampung theme. Speaking to one of the Chef, meat carveries are normally showcased during weekends. I was looking forward to the carvery but it was not available last night. Definitely need to find an excuse to come back again during one of the weekends.
The open kitchen concept reminds me much of Straits Kitchen in Grand Hyatt Singapore.
Mee Bandung station. - got my thumbs up!
Chefs cooking away which is great cos the food that you take is constantly warm.
Good point - not a long wait.
Assam Pedas Fish Curry
Ayam Masak Merah
Nasi Goreng Kampung.
Starters. From Potato Salads to Sambal Belacan dips to Kerabu
to Thai Salad - just the right variety. I think this is
his favorite section.
There was a variety of veggies too.
My favorite dessert, the Bubur Kacang Merah was just right.
So yes, we did have a good time at Sri Patik. The ambiance was comfortable, tables not too close, the staff attentive and of course the food was beyond our expectations. Sungkai Buffet is B$15 (adults) and B$10 (children). Everyday they have a different menu, so best to call them at 2335477 for inquiries and reservations. Their address is;
Sri Patik Brasserie
No.1 & 2, Jaya Setia Square,
Simpang 13, Jalan Berakas,
Bandar Seri Begawan.
The place looks promising although fairly new. I'm actually looking forward to try out their Breakfast Buffet hehehe... Till then, Selamat Berpuasa ;)
