Derp and I celebrated our 9th year dating anniversary in advance since it was hard for either of us to take leave on our actual annviersary day.
In fact, that whole period was hard to take leave due to work milestones but thankfully there's the long weekend for us to rest enough, do our stuffs and yet have some time for pak tor! We don't really have any plans for the anniversary celebration since we agreed on having a good meal will be suffice.
In the end, we head to our actual day wedding venue to have their buffet dinner. Can't believe our customary wedding is happening in less than half year time! Time flies and to be honest, it's like 'marrying again' haha! Just minus off the exchanging of rings and saying of vows.
The familiar place we once step in while we were checking out venue for our wedding banquet. They were the only one we went to actually haha.

Their daily specials and that day was Monday, so it was a crabby affair!
We were greeted by their desserts section once we step in. It got us really excited :)
Spot the chocolate fondue!
Really pretty mini cakes which made me want to try all of them.
The main lead of the night - Crabs.
There were also the smoked salmon, smoked ham and smoked beef.
Spotted some cook food too but we were actually quite disappointed as there's not many of them.
The salad bar was quite extensive.
The first food which I will always go for whenever I go for international buffets.
And the next will be defintely salad to ease the guilt.
Took some cooked salmon meat, beef and also chicken breast. They were all very freshly cooked.
Chawanmushi which looks slightly different from the usual ones. It tasted not bad too.
The Teppanyaki food which were cooked on the spot by the chef.
We didn't have too much of the crabs but instead, we only took this amount.
I took some fresh prawns and also sashimi again lol. They provide wet towel for all their guests so you can go ahead and just use your hands to eat the crabs/prawns.
Since it was crabby night, their chef also cooked chilli crab! We only noticed it towards the end of our meal. Even though we were quite full, but I made Derp queue for it haha!
This is actually 1 person portion so the chef gave him 1 bun. Derp requested for a extra bun since we were sharing the crab :) I've always love the bun for chilli crab especially when dipped into the sauce, even if without I do find it nice too!
It's time for the long awaited dessert after we were done with the chilli crab.
This were what I took after walking through the dessert section. Had a hard time deciding what to get as I was quite full by then.
There were various fruit flavours for the ice pop and they were really really really good. I chose the Mango flavour while Derp has the Calamansi flavour ice pop.
I'm thinking if it was made by them because I could taste the freshness of the fruit inside the pop. The texture of the ice pop was really smooth and it taste exactly like the fruit itself! It definitely doesn't taste like those ice pop we usually had.

Happy me and the mini ice pop.

The restaurant then served us this complimentary cake for our anniversary celebration :)
The mandatory shot for a anniversary celebration.
A #welfie before we left the hotel.
Overall, the food was good but the variety of the buffet dinner was quite disappointing.
The only section which we were satisfed with was the dessert section. Other than that, we find the variety quite little as compared to other hotel's buffet. There wasn't any rice, just some noodles.
In short, there wasn't that many cooked food in general to fill your stomach (especially for big eaters).
Derp was pretty unhappy when he found out they don't serve soft drinks (from those soft drinks dispenser) for their buffets. and one can of soft drink easily cost us nearly $10 hence we didn't go for it. #daylightrobbery
Anyway, thumbs up for their service as they were really attentive and cleared our plate/refilled our water quickly.
The next time we are going back will be for our wedding prep and food tasting! Crossing fingers that it will be good :)
