Four of us decided to dine there on a whim. Thanks Wendy for making the reservation! If you're driving then can park at the Park Regis Hotel and get the carpark coupon from the restaurant.

There were two ala-carte buffet packages available; Seafood Buffet menu (Adult: $43.80++) or Deluxe Seafood Buffet menu (Adult: $59.80++). Minimum 2 pax for the buffet and we were in a party of 4. Drinks are not included, and take note that for Chinese tea order at $3 per head, a minimum of 2 pax is required.
Took a brief look at both the buffet menu and the Deluxe menu had 6 single-serve items while the other menu had 3 single-serve items. We opted for the Seafood Buffet menu.
Staff was friendly and brought out the QR code for the table to scan and order for the buffet. Unsure of the portion size, we ordered a few plates to try.
 |
| crab meatball (五香蟹枣) |
Hmm, crab meatball was smallish and the temperature was lukewarm. Probably these had been left out for quite a while? We did order another round of these later, and its color was visibly darker and the temperature was better.
 |
| salmon sashimi (三文鱼刺身) |
Salmon sashimi was satisfying, and we had another plate of these.
The jellyfish appetiser was one of my favourite dish here. I think I ate half a bowl!
 |
| chilled jellyfish in pomelo sauce (柚子酱凉拌海蜇) |
 |
| prawn paste chicken (虾酱鸡翅) |
Prawn paste chicken wings were decent with its meat still juicy. If you have stomach space, do try the Hot and Sour Soup (酸辣汤). Tangy, spicy and whets the appetite.
The special items (single-serve) arrived 30 minutes into the meal. Fish maw soup was one per pax, scallop was one piece per pax and chili crab is one crab per table.
 |
| Braised Shark’s Fin with Fish Maw (红烧鱼鳔翅) - one serving per pax |
 |
| Steamed Scallop with Garlic and Vermicelli (蒜蓉粉丝蒸扇贝) - one serving per pax |
 |
| TungLok Chilli Crab with Deep-fried ‘Man Tou’ (辣椒螃蟹伴馒头) - one serving per table |
When the staff brought out the Chili Crab, he was saying that this is the "重头戏" or main highlight of the buffet. Keke.

The fish maw soup was good with plenty of julienned mushrooms and fish maw. Added black vinegar and pepper for extra kick. The scallop was smallish and the chili crab sauce was good.

I was feeling full after the soup. Hahaa.
 |
| chicken yakitori (日式串烧鸡) |
The chicken yakitori was surprisingly tender. However, I'd prefer if it was grilled slightly longer.
 |
| Stir-fried Fish Fillet in Black Bean Sauce (豉汁炒鱼片) |
 |
| Stir-fried Young Cabbage with Garlic (蒜蓉炒奶白豆苗) |
I'm usually a fan of nai bai (milk cabbage) but the version here was the healthier choice. Crunchy vegetable with very little oil and not strongly seasoned.
 |
| Spicy Clam Meat with French Bean (香辣贝肉四季豆) |
The french bean dish went in the opposite direction of the young cabbage. I liked the plump french beans but the clam meat probably need a bowl of white rice to go with it.
 |
| Smoked Duck Breast with ‘Mala’ Sauce (老干妈烟鸭胸肉) |
The smoked duck breast dish, I think the sauce translation may not be accurate as 'lao gan ma' sauce was more of savoury fragrant than 'mala'.
We ordered all the available dessert in the ala-carte buffet menu to try.
 |
| Ice-cream Puff (雪糕夹心酥) |
 |
| Red Bean Soup with Glutinous Rice (红豆紫米露) |
Staff was accurate when she informed that the ice-cream puff was currently still frozen. Had to wait for awhile to let the frozen ice-cream soften. We were worried if the red bean soup with glutinous rice would be too 'heavy' after the buffet. Actually no, since there was more 'soup' than the ingredients.
 |
| Chilled Herbal Jelly with Honey (养颜龟苓膏) |
 |
| Chilled Coconut Jelly with Osmanthus Flower (椰汁桂花冻) |
 |

The coconut osmanthus jelly dessert, I liked because the osmanthus taste is not too overpowering. Tasted more of coconut pudding instead.
 |
| Sesame Glutinous Rice Ball coated with Peanut Crumbs (擂沙汤圆) |
The sesame glutinous rice ball was mochi-soft and served warm. Yummy and not too sweet.
Thank you Mien Ta for the treat, and Eric and Wendy for sharing the calories too!
