[Review] 开斋节啦～Ramadhan Buffet @ Taste Cafe & Spoon, G Hotel, Penang.

{[Review] 开斋节啦～Ramadhan Buffet @ Taste Cafe & Spoon, G Hotel, Penang.} 哈咯！一年一度的开斋节又来咯～有木有觉得时间走的有点快呀？好像刚刚才华人新年，现在就斋戒月咯！就代表很快的各位乡亲们又要“老”，不是，是“长大”一岁咯！“我不想，我不想，不想长大。。。”，随本宫一同哼SHE的歌呗～好啦，言归正题，早前收到了邀约，刚好没过期（本宫很少去查邮件哈哈），就接受了此次的邀约咯～真的没后悔去哦，因为不仅仅因为食物，最重要的是认识了好多友人哦！他们都很活泼！哈哈！Halo! Hari Raya is coming! Do you feel that the time is going way too swiftly? It seems like yesterday was CNY and now it's puasa aka fasting period! It implies that we are getting older, NOPE, better to say growing elder! haha! Let's sing SHE's hit song 'don't wanna grow up'~ Okay back to the topic, weeks ago, I received the invitation from G Hotel, it's still valid (I rarely to check my blog's email haha), so I accepted this invitation. Actually, I was being prodded by my sis to accept this haha! But I'll be regretful if I reject this as the food is nice and I also encountered lots of people! They are quite energetic and talkative ahaha!

先让各位看看👀一些本宫所拿的美食！Let you have a peep of what I ate on that day!

最近生病了😷，大家要多喝水。虽然生病了，但是还是要吃吃吃～正所谓“以毒攻毒”。

I got sick lately, remember to drink more water ya! Although I'm sick, but I still can eat, I don't ban myself from FOOD~ A chinese cliche tells 'poison can cure poisonous sickness sometime' haha!

   请按以下影片。。。Please click in the video below... 

真的很对不起迟到了，因为没想到峇都毛会那么塞车🚗。好啦👌，假如你现在很饿的话，就记得先吃一片苏打饼呗哈哈，以下都会是满满的美食照哦～准备。。。起～～～

I'm profoundly sorry about being late, I did not expect to have had squeezed in the congestion at Batu Maung area. Okay, don't say that I did not warn  you, if you are starving now, please please go and get a piece of biscuit and continue reading my blog. Or else you'll curse me haha!

一到就被这给吸引了目光，所以第一站就拍📷它！慢烤羊肉🐑，幸好我家老三没来，啊不然叻就会说🐑很可爱的，不可以吃。哈哈！这羊肉片柔嫩筋韧，口感很好，但重点是拿碗红红的辣椒🌶️酱！很香，辣度刚好👌。

Once I set my feet there, I immediately got luridly this, hence my first shot was dedicated for it! This is the carving stations where you get all kinds of meats! This is the slow roasting lamb, luckily my 3rd sis Christine doesn't see this, or else, she's gonna pester over how cute they are to be eaten. Haha! The lamb slices are soft and Q (the vein is quite chewy but tender) at the same time. Textures are good, the remark is the reddish spicy sauce in that bowl. Smells good and the spiciness is acceptable.

是的。这就是所谓的fusion，创意融合料理。一口咬下去有浓浓的沙爹串的味道，又有类似酸酸甜甜的黄梨味。起司🧀️也放得很足哦。饼皮是走比较不脆的路线，可能他们没烤得那么焦。

YESSH! This is so-called fusion, innovative cuisine. You get that rich satay flavour at one bite together with that sourish but sweet pineapple kinda taste. The cheese is being topped with in an abundance amount. The crust is not that crispy though.

然后，咱们现在所看见👀的就是很多道不一样的马来料理。很澎湃是不是呀？

Right now, what you see is a variety of Malay cuisine! Isn't it too much for our tummies?

因为实在太多道了，所以只拍了这道，其余的大家就快点买票现场👀看live吧！哈哈！

Due to too much of dishes, I just captured this, you guys should be faster and get your own buffet ticket and see it lively and vividly! Haha!

这一站呢是以轻食为主，如：沙拉，培根片，烟熏三文鱼，扇贝🐚累等。沙拉，有的是马来风和异国美式风。本宫尝了酸甜芒果kelabu，还蛮好吃，蛮开胃的。还有很多像是橄榄粒啦等等配料，任君选择哦！

This station is prone to be the appetiser side, including: salad, bacon slices, smoked salmon, scallops etc. We've got 2 types of salad, Malay style and western style. I tasted the sweet and sour mangosteen kelabu, it tastes good as an appetiser. Besides, there's a lot of items like olive for you to devour.

海鲜类都很新鲜哦～完全没有腥味。

Seafood is so fresh, does not carry that unwanted fishy smell.

我姐的最爱，她拿蛮多这个的。本宫没尝到，因为本宫向来对培根片之类的免疫了哈哈，而且要留点胃给女生的命根呀－－－甜品🍮🍰🎂呀！

My sis's fav, she took a lot of this. I didn't taste it as I kinda be immunised from this bacon stuffs haha, plus I have to reserve some space for our girls' all time FAV---dessertssssssssss!

这一站是有大马特色美食－大杂烩Rojak（本宫也是现在才知道Rojak的中文名）哈哈！还有水果🍉，还有有些人不会欣赏的起司🧀️哦！起司在外国可是极品哦，不过还真的有点儿hiam的味道哈哈😄。我姐发明了另一种吃法，就是将它混入上一站的沙拉内。酱子就综合了，协调了hiam之味道。

This station includes Malay's one of the signature---Rojak! With lots of fruits, and some-people-don't-like-it kinda cheese haha! Cheese is really popular in the western countries, but it really smells 'hiam'! haha! A bit busuk haha My sis innovated another way to devour the cheese, to stir it with salad. It blends all of the flavour together and it won't be that hiam.

是的是的，女生第二个胃就是留给。。。

YAYA, girls' second stomach is for....

当本宫拍到一半时，被公关叫出去拍他们的特色－印尼🇮🇩引进的lava stone烧烤站～Lava Stone所烤出来的有啥特别呢？特别之处在于这种方式能锁住🔒食物本身的鲜味和营养。火焰🔥也不会过大，不会烤焦其食物而影响了食物的口感与味道。

I was snapping the desserts, but the PRs asked me to capture their outdoor BBQ area --- Penang's first ever Lava Stone BBQ grill from Indonesia~ Why is it so special? It's because, this cooking way locks the natural flavour, moisture and nutrition of the food. It won't be flare-ups which causes charring as well.

好啦好啦！本宫将你们拉回女生的天堂～👼！

OKOK drag you guys back to the girls' paradise~!

噢买咔！这个真的吃了会噢买咔！上天堂👼！真的太美味了！初次见面时还以为，哎耶，一定是只有奶油味而已，因为白白的，毫不起眼呀！本宫是第一个☝️切这粒蛋糕🎂的，完全是因为被它的名字给吸引－Durian Mousse 榴莲慕思，有够特别吧？！先禀报各位乡亲们，本宫是不吃榴莲的，也不至于讨厌，就不会想吃咯。但是当本宫切了一小片回到座位时，把第一口👄放进嘴里是，顿时觉得上了天堂👼！真的太好吃了！口感犹如棉花糖般轻柔。顺滑口感又带有榴莲的果肉。真的很好吃！而且本宫也影响了身边的部落客们，他们个个也去试吃，结果也被迷惑了！当晚最最最满意的就是这个了～访问了厨师，才套出原来他们应用了榴莲上上品－猫山王和D-24，啊怪不得会那么美味咯！

OMG! This is really OMG! I went to heaven! Really YUMMY! At the first site, I was like Aiyer it must be carrying the cream flavour only, coz it's white and not really tempting! I was the first to cut this! I was being intoxicated by the name tag written ---Durian Mousse, it's special right? Just to let you know, I don't eat durian, it's not that I hate it though, just don't want to eat it. But after I cut a small slice and carried it back to my seat, I felt like floating to the paradise after my first bite of this! TOO YUMMY! The texture is like a soft and airy candy floss. Soft in textures but you can still have a few bite of the real raw durian flesh. I'm not being exaggerating! The bloggers nearby me were all being influenced and all of them went to try this and been bewitched at the end! This is my FAV of that night! That chef told us it's made with the branded durian - Mao Shan Wang and D-24, no wonder it's tasty!

除了榴莲慕斯，当然还有很多很多种类的🍮甜品咯！

Moreover, we've still got a lot of desserts!

其中一名厨师，它是从印尼🇮🇩“进口”的！哈哈！

One of the chef who is "imported" from Indonesia haha!

是的，巧克力🍫温泉♨️，它的巧克力不会太甜。

YESH~ Chocolate fountain, I think it's better with the name of chocolate hot spring haha! The chocolate is not over sweet.

当然少不了马来糕啦！但是本宫还是深深的被西式甜品给吸住了！

Definitely could not be devoid of the Malay dessert line! But I still prefer the WESTERN one deke that durian one~~~haha

小孩最爱－棉花软糖。看了有莫明幸福的感觉～

Children's favourite - marshmallow. I can't help but feel relieved and happy after seeing this haha

这个也蛮好吃的！有蓝莓味哦！

This is nice as well, with blueberry flavour!

因为实在太多了，所以本宫不能一一帮你们试吃呀。但是本宫尝了后排巧克力的酒杯🍷。味道像雪糕，但是不懂是不是吃了太多所以又点儿腻。

Coz it's too much, I could not try it all. But I tasted the chocolate one at the last row. It tastes like chocolate ice cream, I felt overly sweetened, maybe because of the overdose desserts!

吃货人生～‘喃人啊，吃了就要还债呀！待会一定要跑十圈烧脂肪才行呀！’。但是每次都做不到。。。

FOODIE life~ 'As a human being, after eaten, we have to pay! Later I better get my butts off and run 10 rounds to burn my fats!'. but I always do not do it. haha...

这是本宫的第一盘，熏烤三文鱼真的非常好吃哦，不会太咸，有些店家会太咸。而且非常新鲜哦！

This was my first plate, the smoked salmon is really delicious as it's not too salty like those from the other cafes. Plus, it's really fresh~

老二的，也太澎湃了吧！

2nd sis's, OMG isn't it too much?!

老二叫的饮品，外表超赞，但是怎么会有Sprite的味道？哈哈！

My sis ordered this, looks good! But taste like Sprite haha! I thought it's something taste like coconut.

其实这是本宫第2✌️盘甜点哦！还有忘了介绍，他们的面包布丁🍞＋🍮也是非常美味哦！上层有催催的焦糖杏仁片，下层的布丁这是非常滑润呀！不会太死甜哦！Actually, this was my 2nd plate of dessert! Forgot to mention that their bread pudding is really yummy too! Crispy caramelised almond shreds on top and soft pudding at the bottom! Not over sweet!

本宫向对面的部落客借来拍的马来西亚拉茶！Teh Tarik~我们还问他为何不要自己拉拉看，因为滴在地上的话，不用自己抹地哈哈！

I borrowed it from the other blogger haha! Malaysia's Teh Tarik~ We asked him why not tarik by yourself haha coz if you failed it, you don't have to mop the floor! Haha!

是的本宫的第二片，榴莲慕斯！

This was my 2nd piece of Durian Mousse!

看到人家拿，本宫也要！所以。。。

I saw people taking this so I also....

本宫就吃了～香蕉🍌目目查查哈哈！虽然材料没有像外面的华人版多，但是味道很好。

I ate it too! Haha! Banana Bo Bo Cha Cha! Although the ingredients is not as many as the Chinese style, but it tastes good!

除了这一些，你们还可以吃的有：Bubur Lombok Telur Masin （用咸蛋熬煮的粥，蛮好吃的，还真的是第一次吃到）, 现煮的Roti John, Yam&Pisang Goreng, Assam Laksa等等哦～

Besides these,  you can also find Bubur Lombok telur Masin ( cooked by using the salty egg with the porridge, quite nice, my first time trying this), you may also watch the chefs whip up the Roti John, Yam & Pisang Goring, Assam Laksa etc~

在此多谢 G Hotel的邀约！

Profoundly grateful for the invitation!

两位大厨～2 of the CHEFS!

好咯！这就是在那里认识到的友人哦！他们说📷拍照一定要在第三声时才拍pose做表情，酱才比较自然！

OK! These are the people that I met! They said that you need to strike the pose and make the right facial expression at the 3rd count, it'll be more natural.

自然是自然，但是也比较容易蒙哈哈！

Ya, it's more natural but sometimes it get blurred as well haha!
