The weekday lunch and dinner buffets features an array of grilled meats starring its popular carving station with barbecue beef brisket or rump, sausages, chicken and pork spareribs. Must-have buffet options include the fresh seafood section cooked à la minute, and the Japanese station with seven kinds of sushi as well as fish and vegetable tempura. The Asian selections include dim sum dishes that pair well with a choice of steamed noodles. There are also a variety of Filipino and Southeast Asian items, a Western station with European and Mediterranean cuisine, the charcuterie and cheese sections, and the fresh salad bar. For desserts, a crepe station offers three ice cream flavors and one sorbet, as well as an assortment of fillings and toppings, while treats such as halo-halo, cheesecakes, pies, cookies, and fresh fruits complete the pastry selections.

On weekends, feast on succulent roasted ribeye steaks, hand-tossed pizzas and freshly made pastas, salmon and tuna sashimi, as well as crunchy shrimp tempura. The best sellers are always on rotation, as well as newer, can’t-be-missed options, so the buffet offerings always fresh, seasonal, and something to look forward to.
