Went for the budget-friendly buffet** and wow—packed doesn’t even begin to describe it! The food is okay (mostly Japanese, Thai, Chinese), but I was a bit concerned with the hygiene as there were kids picking food as well that dropped one type of food into another which was the sauces bowl and whatnot.
