While searching for a place to have my birthday lunch, the only criteria I actually had was to be able to eat sushi, tempura, and pizza all at once but under an affordable price point. I did my research on openrice but I guess I was not able to figure out that tempura was definitely not available during lunch hours. ouch!But it should be okay? 2 out of 3 is still good so I started with a platter of sashimi.

But it should be okay? 2 out of 3 is still good so I started with a platter of sashimi. I would normally eat sashimi the most when it comes to buffets but I could only get through one plate this time. While the salmon does come in pleasantly thick chunks which makes for a good mouth feel, it unfortunately tasted like it was left out long. It didn't taste fresh. The abalone was the best out of the three cuts of fish but it wasnt enough to make up for my Salmon disappointment.
The pizza is as you would expect of a buffet style pizza. The crust was soft when I got to it but at least the ham pizza's cheese has a bit of pull when I bit into it. It scratched the itch of wanting a cheesy treat and it was nice with some greens and more cheese to nibble on. Not winners but it scratches an itch.
The braised pork belly in star anise though positively excelled as a stewed dish. It was melty in the mouth and it was very rich. The grilled squid and fish with mango salsa had good texture. The chicken nuggets were predictably stale but I came for variety and I am here to enjoy my every juvenile craving.
Stews in general are really good in the buffet. The green curry was rich and spicy and the cuts of pork I got to eat were very tender. The nigiri was lackluster but the Prime Rib was lovely and had a good portion of fat. Perfect with horseradish. Yum!

And the weird but pleasant surprise of the meal were these amazing pancakes. The buffet has an automatic pancake making machine which is a total joy to watch. But it also produces these perfectly fluffy Mcdonalds style breakfast pancakes and I had no idea I wanted this so badly. YES. get the pancakes. I had a good stack of these on my second plate because they were fluffy and delightful.
All in all, I did enjoy the variety but the quality is all over the place. The salmon was very disappointing since the lack of freshness left an unpleasant aftertaste. It made me wary to try the oysters in the end. I dont know if I would come back. But I did have a pleasant time with my dining companions and the staff were nice people. You cant always get what you want, but you do get what you need.
