Lots of different meat varieties to bbq but all meat was chewy and tough. All these years Desert station is never replenished from 20:45 onwards and item always run out before I get to it. I always miss out on egg tarts. However, there are lots of varieties of delicious food to choose from. The mushroom sauce ran out at the beginning and was never refilled for my steaks. Overall, great place for special occasions and events to suit a wide variety of tastebuds. Adding pizzas and pasta would also be ideal even though it’s an Asian buffet.
