Foodie,
I love Buffet,
Reviews I’m sure now… everytime when you tuned in to Hitz.fm.. you’ve heard of.. ALL the ramadhan buffets ranging from the Malay-Balinese Buffet from Pullman, The Macam-Macam Ada Mega Buffet from Grand Margherita Hotel and… of coz.. with the title.. the Bigger, the Better BCCK Ramadhan Buffet.
This Year, Borneo Convention Center Kuching (BCCK) is having a bigger and better buffet as compared to last year… This year, it is held in the Great Halls ABCD which can accommodate up to 1000 diners a night 
Oh.. awesome isnt it?
Which the purple theme.. how elegant
One thing about BCCK.. the Great hall only open for the diners at Buka Puasa time.. Kiasu people like myself, rose, jacq, cyril, jimmy.. eve…well.. almost everyone who came early will have to wait outside the hall…
with mike and sophia..
camwhoring and having fun… 38-ing. *miahahahahahaha*
Hellu Rosieeeee <3
When the clock hits 6.50pm.. we all went in. First.. to all the counters serving different goodies..
The Banana, Apple and Prawn Fritters Counter
The Roasted Duck and Chicken Rice Counter
Shawarma Counter
Roasted Lamb Counter and many many more..
Start off our meal with Kurma..
And then to the Starters
Ulam with the leaves that Jaq can chew like a mooo-mooo
Smoked Salmon.. Oh well.. they actually changed the Menu every FRIDAY. So.. this round.. we dont have fresh salmon but we have the smoked one “)
The Greens
Proceed on to the mains.. No kidding thats only a very SMALL part of it
Among the favourite… Satay.. The beef satay is very nice!
And the Shawarma aka Kebab is not bad as well
My personal preference.. mashed potatoes with Brinjal in spices.. Brinjal lovers like me.. you will love it.. even tho you dont take brinjal.. you will definately love the mash potatoes
Nasi Briyani with chicken
Mushroom Soup
Bubur Pedas
Lasagna
and roti canai..
And.. Jeng Jeng Jeng! lovely !
Time for dessert.
To be honest. Really love the dessert..
especially all the fresh berries with it. Impressive
They have varieties of these but every single one just give u a little surprise out of no where
Not forgetting the ice kacang
Cendol with coconut
and even the traditional kek lapis
Well.. really enjoy the food and all the laughters that night. Lovely people. and thankiuk mike for the invitation. You are getting slimmer and slimmer each other.. *rooar*
Anyhow… it is recommended to make a reservation to secure your table. The menu changed every Friday.. RM 65 nett for adult and RM 25 nett for children age 5-12 from 5th August to 26th. For more information, call 082-392 889 from 9am to 6pm daily
Disaster : Flash run out of battery half way.. so.. some of the pic.. T.T

Events,
Foodie,
I love Buffet,
Reviews Felt really bad for neglecting my blog for another one month. July was really busy and down. July is finally over and August will be a good one. Ramadhan Month. A very important month for all the Muslim.. And a very fulfilling makan makan month for us.
1st of August.. Puzzle Restaurant at Pullman Kuching is offering a Malay-Balinese Ramadhan Buffet for the whole month…
The two main chefs from Bali… Chef Kadek Janu Wirama and Chef Gusti Made Diartawan purposely came down to Pullman Kuching for a month to present their authentic Balinese food.
Puzzle restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes.. Ranging from.. Kerabu families.. Kerabu Daging, Kerabu pucuk paku, kerabu mangga muda and much more..
If kerabu is too heavy for you, you can always opt for the western GREEN salad..
Or if you like it.. heavier.. and in a more traditional starter.. you can opt for this..
Too many sauce to choose i know
Or.. Balinese style!
Pepes Ikan (Fish marinated balinese spices wrap with banana leave)
Perkedel Jagung (Corn fritters with Balinese spices)
Tum Ayam (Chicken Yellow Balinese spices wrap with banana leaves)
Or combination… like me!
After all the starter.. here comes the Malay-Balinese Food. The main attraction for the night as well.
Kambing Menyat-nyat ( Lamb Stew with Balinese Spices)
Ayam Panggang Plecing ( Roasted Chicken with red chilli and tomato sauce)
Ikan Goreng Sambal Bawang ( Baby fish with fried shallot spice)
Beef Rendang ( Beef Stew with Balinese Spice)
Sate Empol Ikan ( Fish Finger Skewer)
Ayam Bertutu ( Smoked chicken in Balinese Spice wrap in banana leave)
Udang Bumbu Bali ( Prawn stew in coconut yellow gravy)
Cumi Sambal Matah ( Squid with raw Balinese spice)
Ready to eat!!
When you finished your Balinese Food.. it is recommended to go to the alley to have to slight walk for digestion as well as to aim for other food.
Not only Balinese Food, Puzzle Restaurant is serving food from other countries as well…
Local Delicacies like Penang Char Kway Teow, Roti Canai, Rojak, Laksa Sarawak and kuih Nyonya.. separately served in 4 different stations
Roasted Lamb…. A must for buka puasa nom nom*
Very Juicy indeed
lamb kurma, Beef curry , Honey chicken and the fish head curry is a blast!!
Vietnam popiah and roti john special..
Mexican tortilla and nachos.. omg.. i m loving this so much <3
And even seafood station… Jus pick any seafood and ask the chef to settle for you. My choice : Crabby
And if you are still not full, go back in and grab the international buffet!
A piece of each will mountain up to this
Oh.. never forget to try the bubur lambuk….. very very nice!
And our portion for 3…
Jacq don wan to be in the photo she say she din wear nice nice… =.=
