Jom Beriftar Ramadan Buffet Preview
My wife and I were privileged to enjoy a testing of The Wembley's Jom Beriftar buffet at a preview held on Thursday, 26 April, 2018. We were joined by other members of the local social media community, including quite a number of Malay bloggers whom I have gotten to know.
It was a marvellous spread of food, a metaphotical feast the bridges the cuisine of the East with the West. This being a Ramadan buffet, there was of course a large selection of Malay dishes, including Sup Gearbox, Ayam Percik, Sotong Masak Kunyit, two types of satay and Daging Masak Berlada. There's also the Mantis Prawns in Salted Eggs, which is one of my favourite items whenever I come to The Wembley. I enjoyed the dishes so much, I returned for seconds.
The dishes at Jom Beriftar is not confined to Malay dishes. There is also sushi and sashimi, pizza, spaghetti, a whole range of seafood on ice, at least two types of soup, braised chicken and duck, and various types of cheese.
Once we were done with the savoury items, we continued on to the desserts - and there was so much to enjoy, including various types of cheesecake and red velvet cake, puddings, glutinous rice balls and ice cream.
Now let me show you what we had.

About this website
Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.
While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
