Had a one night stop over at KIX, went to the dinner buffet alone to kill some time. Didn’t need to look at my phone, the food is very varied and interesting.

The mussel and fish soup was a favourite- rich and hearty, the cream carrot soup was sweet and luxurious. Multiple appetisers with smoked salmon, poached chicken, beef carpaccio being the most memorable. ‘Special Fried chicken’ was next level. The fried fish was tasty, albeit slightly too oily. Salads were fresh. Desserts were also impeccable with opera cake, strawberry mouse, deconstructed black Forrest cake- all faultless. Donuts were good but would skip them next time as all the other dishes were better.

I intended on trying some Japanese dishes but was led by my desire to try everything and was full before I knew it.

I have found that even great Japanese restaurants don’t do European dishes justice, but this was not the case here. I was amazed to get such high quality food at a buffet!

Staff were professional and friendly
