Lunch At Wild Rice Restaurant, Boulevard Hotel
Hitting a buffet spread is always more fun when the crowd I'm with are the "havoc" type. You know, the noisy type who will try and eat everything and anything on offer on the buffet counter; and the crowd that chatters away and laughing all through the meal. It was like that during the lunch at The Spread, The Gardens Hotel. I ate way more than I should that time even though I spent half the time visiting other tables and talking to the restaurant manager.
Last Friday, I went for lunch at Wild Rice, The Boulevard Hotel with a much quieter crowd and I just ate these:
Last Friday, I went for lunch at Wild Rice, The Boulevard Hotel with a much quieter crowd and I just ate these:
I went straight for the seafood, the Nestum prawns (a must try at Wild Rice), curry squid, crab claw, etc... Then I had tomyam gung (okay but not that great) and then it was dessert time. One thing that they have here but The Spread doesn't is coffee.
Overall, for the price that we paid (we got 50% discount with our privilege card) it was worth it. The food wasn't that bad but it wasn't that great either. However, the ambiance was nice and it was quite relaxing to eat lunch there. I just wish that the staff would be more attentive in filling up our drinks (water lah) and clearing up the plates. The 7 or 8 of them (yep, I counted) seemed intent to clear just one table per group, together. Maybe they have good teamwork and like to work together going from table to table, I don't know...
Anyway, I had plenty of lunch out for these past few days. Definitely not good for someone intent on losing weight! :(
Some more, I'm having lunch with Foongpc today!

ReplyDelete@ECL & Superman,
ReplyDeleteIt was a great lunch with Foong. But have to say sorry to foong for yakking way too much for him to eat. LOL
Next time you must bring me to Wild Rice and The Spread! When I go for buffet, I like to chit chat a lot too. Actually the fun is more on the chit chatting! The food is just a bonus. That's why my buffet gathering can last till 3-4 hours! haha!
ReplyDeleteNo problem of you yakking too much. Although I'm not particularly good at multi tasking (in this case - listening and eating and talking), I think I can manage. LOL! : )
@foong,
ReplyDeleteIf eat at the Spread definitely I want tostay for 3-4 hours. Pay so much already! LOl
