Finally got to try the Palette dinner buffet, which is in the Sav hotel, which opened about two years ago. Booking was easy and service was courteous. We just missed their wagyu and truffle event, their new event is "private kitchen" (see Fong choi) and we were asked to pick either birds nest dessert or "Buddha jumps the wall" the day prior. We used the open rice coupon which gave a 40% discount, so it came out to $350 pp on a Thursday night. Overall I was happy with the dining experience. Altho
Overall I was happy with the dining experience. Although the salad selection is lacking and they did not have any sashimi, the food on offer was fairly high quality. Food was replenished quickly. Highlights were the lobster halves, cooked seafood station (freshly cooked to order in noodle soup or porridge), prime rib, beef tenderloin cubes (really good), grilled pineapple, and lamb rack. What it lacks in variety it makes up in quality and consistency, which is sometimes hard to find in buffets, where quantity usually trumps quality.
Special mention was the "private kitchen" corner, featuring tea leaf-smoked chicken, which was super tender juicy and flavorful. I also liked the five spice tofu.
We also got a choice of one of three free cocktail/mock tail in addition to coffee/tea, which was a nice gesture.
The ambience was nice the evening we were there as it was not crowded at all. However as the restaurant is not very large I can imagine it can be a bit crowded if it seated it's full capacity.
