A Gastronomic Tour of Sydney’s All-You-Can-Eat Venues

Evidence of the Shangri La Buffet Experience

I know this was ages ago….  please accept apologies for the lateness of posting. Better late than never, right??

A recap on our night:

Roll call = Jeff, Kirstin, Richard, Vanessa, Nick, Jen, and all the way from Hong Kong, Hugh Driver!

The buffet was separated into the following cuisine groups: ‘Seafood and Salad’, ‘China’, ‘India’, ‘Japan’, the grey area of ‘Western’, ‘Soups’ and finally ‘Dessert’.  For those with a penchant for crab and oysters, there was a good display on offer.  But the hands down winner was the Dessert bar, where we all got very creative with the options available, and then subsequently felt very full!!

All in all the buffet delivered a variety of options, but we felt that in representing the geographic cuisines we lost out on flavour and authenticity.  Was there value for money?  At $58, perhaps not.  But it was fun nonetheless!
