Known for their selection of Peranakan and western delights, Ellenborough Market Cafe has recently brought back their seafood buffet extravaganza. The cholesterol junkie in me was really excited to check out the seafood spread, especially at the price of $68. After all, what could possibly be better than digging into a mountain of white pepper crabs, slipper lobsters, and peranakan dishes?
Unfortunately, I had a rather dismal time at the seafood buffet. Many of the dishes were subpar at best, and I left wondering if I had set my expectations too high.
Surprisingly, my favourite appetiser was the smoked salmon potato salad. Like most people looking to eat their money’s worth from a buffet, I don’t usually go for carbohydrates. But their potato salad was refreshing, well-seasoned, and came with some quality smoked salmon.
