The restaurant has a gorgeous tropical garden theme with décor that celebrates the beauty of Singapore's naturescape. The interior has a luxurious back-to-nature atmosphere with the use of natural materials like the timber flooring, marbled tabletops and rattan ceiling fans.

The gorgeous floral wallpaper adds to the garden theme while adding a feminine touch. Look a little closer and you'll spot local flora like ginger flower, Simpoh Lak, and Freycinetia Javanica, intricately woven into the wallpaper.

Their star dishes are the Signature Crabs (Chilli, Pepper and Kam Heong) with Mantou, Sate Lilit, Durian Pengat, BBQ Thai River Prawn with Spicy Green Dip and Singapore Laksa.

The best thing is that since they are à la carte buffets, you will have unlimited servings of individual plates brought right to your table - no more getting up repeatedly to take a second, third or more helpings! This is part of the hygiene protocol set by the hotel so you can enjoy the buffet safely.

À La Carte Lunch Buffet on weekends and public holidays are priced at $48++ per pax ($24++ for children) while the À La Carte Dinner Buffet on Wednesdays to Sundays are priced at $58++ per pax ($29++ for children).

Considering the Instagrammable interiors and free flow of crab, we'd say that's a fairly affordable price point! There is also an À La Carte menu with a mix of Asian and Western offerings for those who aren't in the mood for a buffet.
