Buffets

My first visit to Steak & Salad few years ago, introduced by colleagues, was unforgettable. At this concept, you get unlimited Astons sides. Fyi the general prices are jacked up, but I think still acceptable. Here are sausage salad, papaya salad, coleslaw, sauteed mushrooms, onion rings, garlic bread and butter rice. They're basic, I won't deny that.

Spicy marinated chicken and spicy pork belly. A restaurant marked by atrocious service at the counter - they take reservations but can't deliver tables on time - and great service at the table. Considering the meats are standard fare, this is quite an average buffet.

A restaurant marked by atrocious service at the counter - they take reservations but can't deliver tables on time - and great service at the table. The brisket was like shabu and the best, but also the only meat with a limit. Considering the other meats are standard fare, this is quite an average buffet. I love pork belly, but don't waste time on the other pork.
