Sunway Ramadhan Buffet 2016

Sunway Ramadhan Buffet 2016 (8 June 2016)


It is once again the fasting month. This year, Sunway Hotel Georgetown is doing its Ramadhan Buffet beginning on Wednesday, 8 June, 2016. The theme this year is Flavours of Mak Tok, evocating memories of traditional food passed down the generations from yesteryear.

My wife and I have the pleasure of tasting the dishes whipped up by Sunway's culinary team that includes Sous Chef Wee and Assistant Pastry Chef Huzaimi. There is a lot of food, so much that the dishes are arrayed both inside and outside the dining hall.

Here I am with the roti canai (8 June 2016)


To go with the roti canai, there's dalcha and sambal ikan bilis. (8 June 2016)


And here, there's mee rebus. (8 June 2016)


And in here, we have char koay teow! (8 June 2016)

I went through the buffet aisles looking at what is available. Wow, there's one whole roasted leg of lamb. Next to it, there are different types of deep-fried kuih.

On the other side of the entrance hall are various types of hawker food including roti canai, char koay teow and mee rebus. Just inside the dining hall, there's various salted items, such as salted egg yolk and different types of salted dish, arranged in neet baskets overlaid with banana leaves. Next to it, there's different types of crackers and greens, or ulam, and different types of sambal, held in mortars.

On the next table, I saw various types of kerabu. And then, arrayed right across the dining all, are all the main dishes. There's udang mentega (butter prawns), kacang botol goreng (stir-fried wingbean), ayam masak merah (chicken in red curry), gulai kambing (mutton curry), telur masam manis (sweet-and-sour egg), daging kurma (beef kurma), pageri nenas (pineapple curry), sambal sotong (curry squid) and daging rendang tok (granny's beef rendang).

And we are not done. On the central food island, there's a broth called bubur lambuk, and next to it, a soup, called sup tepian bendang. On the far wall, there are all sorts of beverages (I drank plain water and teh tarik that evening). And finally, different types of dessert are lined up on the side wall, including all sorts of kuihs and puddings.

The Sunway Hotel Georgetown's Ramadhan Buffet Dinner is priced at RM58 nett per person for adults, and RM38 nett for children and senior citizens. Certainly well worth it, if you are a big eater.

On this side, I found various ulam, sambal and keropok. (8 June 2016)


Various salted fish and salted eggs. I am not sure if all the fish are salted, but I took the one on the right, and it was salted! (8 June 2016)

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
