Cafebiz

Field report for DBS card promotion 1-for-1 buffet dinner at Cafebiz at Trader's hotel.

Total damage for Tuesday dinner: $33 (original price $56++)

The place is very classy and buffet area is quite big and spread out.
Appetizers were rojak and salads.
Fresh seafood on a bed of ice includes fresh and big oysters which were too big for my liking, prawns, mussels and snails which grossed me out.
The snow crab legs were so good! Sweet and juicy in each bite.



















I liked how they placed the fruits at the appetizers. Fruits are supposed to be eaten before a meal as opposed to the traditional after-meal. They had the normal sushi and fresh salmon and tuna sashimi.



The mains were kinda disappointing, although there were variety. Quality wasn't as good and the food wasn't refilled as fast as they were depleted.
I like eating cute bunnies.



















Fortunately we attacked the dessert section after appetisers, before everyone else. We only took a few back to our table and after our mains, most of them were gone. 
The desserts were NEVER refilled after they were gone - a super bad move by Cafebiz. 
How could you not refill your desserts when its the most important part of the meal?!??! Is there only one round of desserts for a buffet??!

The quality of food were so-so, not as exquisite as 10@Claymore, only the snow crab legs saved the entire buffet. Desserts were not bad but those who went late didn't get a taste of it after it has been cleared by earlier customers.

I still prefer 10@Claymore for the quality. I guess the price was worth the 1-for-1 but I wouldn't pay for the regular price because they don't serve enough food.
