Shang's buffet breakfast is, in a word, perfect. Ranging from Asia to Western fare, it catered to special dietary needs such as dairy & gluten-free options. Of course, those going for full-fat, full-carb, full-sugar needn't fear as there was plenty of that too. Tried 1 peking duck pancake wrap - altho' not a traditional brekkie fare, it went down well.... More

I have been coming to this establishment over the past 4 years when I am in the country and averaging 3-4 times per week for dinner. During that period, I have seen 3 F&B directors come and go, change of chefs, managers and staff for the various departments. The quality of food is generally high but the service is second... More

Have been here three times over the course of 2 years and both wife and self sick afterwards each time, wont be going again. The seafood, a main attraction of any buffet is not fresh and there you have it. Lacks ambience, its noisy and busy and that makes simply getting the food unlpeasant. So altogether not impressed. Compared with... More

Lemon Garden Cafe, Shangri-La Hotel Went there for dinner. We paid RM 159 each, slightly expensive, but not for this buffet spread. Cuisine ranges from Chinese, Japanese, Italian, Malay, Mexican, Middle Eastern, Thai, Western, Nyonya to the one we had our eyes on from start till end, the very fresh seafood assortment. From the start we attacked the seafood area,... More

Probably one of the best buffet in KL. Good selection of fresh food and international cuisines. Only downside is - too pricy! But then, most people will afford it once in a while, so this place appeared packed all the time. Suggest pre-book, however, you can always try walking in , and if there is empty table, they won't turn... More
