very impressed by the wide variety of food available and the impeccable service. my faves were the thai pork, sambal chicken, osmanthus jelly, and salmon sashimi. they also have allergen info which is nice.
the only funny downside is that 1 night we arrived 17mins before closing (google closing time said 10pm (confirmed 2wks ago lol) but they actually close at 930pm) and we asked the server if this was ok -- they said yes, but we thought to ourselves theres no way we can rush a buffet in 17mins and it's funny that they have the gall to smile and say yes you can totally enjoy our buffet with that little time... also lowkey funny that they come with the payment machine while youre halfway through your food... but i did like how they always went out of their way to try and help you carry food and refreshed our drinks constantly.
i recommend coming in earlier as there was no time limit.

Read moreThe lunch buffet started at 12:30pm and usually ends at 2:30pm. We didn’t get there till 1:45 and the front of house was very assuring that there is still food being served and replenished. No fault of the team at Urban kitchen but we had to rush to get food for what we thought we had of 45 mins. The front of house ‘Anita’ approached me while I was doing my rounds of food hunting to be told they are extending the buffet for us. How lovely!

Well done to the team and thanks for the catering staff for extending our time.
The wagyu beef chuck was...
