Carousel Buffet Review 2022 : As good as before?

It's buffet time!

Since Apr 2020, the self-serving buffet has been banned due to COVID-19. After a long break of 2 years, it is finally back.

That means the diet would have to wait as we head down to Carousel to have a feast. 

Pre-covid days, Carousel has been a favourite destination for locals and foreigners to have a feast. This halal restaurant isfor its wide selection of dishes. You can take your pick from Asian to Western to seafood. 

Shashimi

For frequent buffet diners, the first thing most will head for is the seafood. Carousel has a mix of Japanese Shasimi and an assorted mix of shellfish that would satisfy your taste buds. The snow crabs and prawns are a must on our list.

Seafood

 The only downside is that we missed the crayfish and rock oysters to complete the experience. As for the sashimi, it only serves salmon and tuna while we are there. 

After the seafood, you would probably head to your favourite Asian or Western section.

Korean Dishes

Here you have dishes from Korea, India and local delights. 

Indian Dishes

Surprisingly, other than soba and sashimi, there was a lack of Japanese Sushi.  

As for the western, the beef will always be the queue with the longest queue. 

Pizzas are on the menu too.

During our visit, we do not see a lot of chicken dishes. This is probably due to the chicken shortage that we were facing then.

There are also live stations for those who prefer to see their food cooked in front of them.

Other than the main dishes, the assortment of desserts will please most.

Desserts Corner

That are puddings ( we love the chocolate puddings), fruits, Asian desserts, savoury cakes and ice cream.

It will be hard to choose, but since this is a buffet, we will take one of each.

Verdict

Overall, we were happy to be back to enjoy buffet once again. It is definitely an experience you do not get to savour during Covid era. While the restaurant was packed during a weekday visit, we are still glad to be back. Food-wise, the quality and quantity are both above average for a buffet.
