Thanks to Ah Pop of http://smashpop.com, we bloggers get the opportunity to try some of the finest dishes in town. Buffet Style babeh! House of Buffet (HOB).
Its just next to Lowyat plaza, making it really convenient for patrons/shoppers to have their bite at anytime of the day.
Being the new kid on the block, we bloggers are expecting something really scrumptious and awesome while having out teeth sunk into the so called ‘fine dishes’. But before we get into that, lets look at the interior.
The interior spots a really upper class environment for customers and a very cozy setting. When you step into this place, you could down right feel like its a fine dining restaurant, which in fact is not. What makes this place stands out is the decos and the design itself. Along the walkway and tableside, there’s a mini lake. It looks really elegant and it gives you the ‘upper class’ feeling. LOL
If I’m not mistake, this place has 5 sections; Japanese, Malay, Chinese Fusion, Salad Bar, Ice Cream Bar, Cake counter and Drink Counter tho the Tempayaki section is not open yet.
The raw section of the Japanese Buffet.
Nope. Not Good. Honestly, the sushi wasnt that fresh. Dont know why, but it seemed dryyyyy…. The raw section was good tho. The Salmon and the Ham is really tasty.
The tempura and bilis was awesome. I love the bilis especially. Anchovies in English. LOL
They served this to us. Coconut drink!!! Really cooling and refreshing. Especially when you know the air cond is not working at their place. =p
I don’t eat muscles, but this muscles is not your ordinary muscles. It is cooked with cheese and man, i can eat this thang all night long. It has this fried feeling and the cheese just eliminates the smell away. Really awesome stuff.
I dont know what is this, but the gravy has this sweet taste and it gives the chicken a lip smacking points from me. This chicken is ordinary but the gravy is its M15. Love this.
Salad Bar
Now here comes their signature dish, specially prepared by the chef for us.
I particularly love this dish. According to the chef, this is a Mexican influenced dish. The roll taste just like spring roll with a hint of some Mexican herds. Its exactly like the spring roll/popiah my grandma always make during festive season. Of course this is just my bias taste buds as i love popiah very much. =)
HOB also serves Baskin 31 Robin ice cream and that’s the part we bloggers are looking forward to. Nevertheless, sorry to say, the cakes are not worth mentioning, so i wont post it up. =)
Overall, there’s room from improvement for this newly opened buffet style restaurant. It doesn’t has the wow factor but at the same time its not that bad. The dishes that i mentioned are worth your taste buds. Although the Japanese food section failed me, but at least the hospitality we received compensate for it. There are rooms for improvement and i wish you guys luck. Then again, thanks to SmashPop a.k.a Jason Goh and HOB for hosting us bloggers. It was an awesome night. We went home a happy man. LOL. Full and happy! weee. =)
