[Review] Christmas 2018 Delights at Novotel Singapore on Stevens
Recently, we had the opportunity to feast on and experience the festive dinner buffet at the Novotel Singapore on Stevens hotel.
Chef's Signatures
At Food Exchange (the buffet restaurant located on Level 2), we savoured the chef's signatures, such as Traditional Roast Turkey served with turkey stuffing, brussels sprouts, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce and turkey gravy, Roast Ribeye Beef served with garden vegetables, rosemary roasted potatoes, mash potatoes and natural jus.
Christmas Delights
Other Christmas offerings that we enjoyed were the Salmon Coulibiac served with tarragon beurre blanc, garden vegetable and mashed potatoes and the Honey Studded Gammon Ham served with garden vegetables, roasted pineapples and mashed potatoes. These were on top of their daily international buffet with fresh seafood on ice, sushi, sashimi, assorted cheeses etc.
International Offerings
What we liked about the buffet was that the food was the sheer variety. It was an international cuisine ranging from Indian papadam to Japanese sushi. I also found myself having a second round of lobster bisque because it tasted wonderful.Overall
The food was just sumptuous and unpretentious in the sense that it felt like there was quality without the restaurant trying too hard to please its diners.
Overall, we enjoyed the hearty experience. For those of you who have reservations about festive buffets only limiting their festive menu to all that ang moh food, fret not, as the hotel restaurant also caters to those who like to mix it up a little with traditional local delights such as satay, chilli crab and otak.
"Meatless" Options
We also heard that the restaurant also creates food in a very creative, inspirational manner, such as their egg (lookalike) sandwich and meatless burger, and has a herb garden where the restaurant grows its ingredients to ensure freshness and quality. Do give these special items a try if you see them!
