Only got to try this on the last day of my stay even though there was breakfast included. For a breakfast buffet, the spread was extensive and even featured things that I would usually not associate with breakfast like sashimi, sushi and meat loaf. Definitely worth it if you are the type who has a hearty appetite for breakfast and likes the variety.

Most of the items I picked were fine so I was generally happy with my selection. Personal favourites were the fried noodles, mushroom bun and siew mai. The pastries were delicious too while the congee was a tad bland. There is also freshly pressed juice and there's a variety of fruits to choose from. I chose pear which was not too sweet and refreshing.

The place is spacious but it did feel a bit noisy and crowded when the hotel guests started flooding in. Probably not the best place to be if you want to eat in peace and quietness. If the weather is fine, you can head outdoors for a nice view of Victoria Harbour while feasting...

Well I guess I have to tell you it's pretty damn good you could say pdg! It was free flow, included prosecco, white wine, red wine and juices. Now the free flow was self-service, which at our table we thoroughly enjoyed. I suspect that Big Bay Cafe did not make a profit that day! Personally I didn't find that the buffet was a very big there was seafood Japanese salads and desserts of course. When mentioning that to my friends, they pointed out the buffet carried quite away along a section I hadn't noticed. The traditional buffet food with western Indian and Chinese abounded. I think they must have had some kind of "Chick Pea" promotion because there were many different dishes of chicken peas 😜. The staff were good sports and let us open another prosecco at 225pm and let us stay till around 3pm. Really the icing on the cake, we could have been told no to the last bottle and we could have been asked to leave at 230pm. Thank you! Price HK$754 for 2. Very reasonable...
