The Carousel

I am so glad that hubby's work is able to make him work from home. He was able to squeeze in the Valentine Lunch Date during the weekday. Celebrating V-day used to make me cringe. It still does but a little so I am glad we had it on lunch. But I still have this girly thing in me. Flowers would really make my day. I may not show it but deep inside it does. Sadly, he hadn't had any for me the other day and had given me roses the other day. It didn't made so much impact in me but I still appreciate it. I wish he'd be more romantic, though.

Anyway, this entry is about our lunch at the Carousel. I have mentioned here that it was one of the options we had for our Christmas dinner. So last Feb 14 we were able to try it out. Carousel is a buffet restaurant at Royal Plaza on Scotts Road. It offers a wide array of cuisines from Meditteranean, Indian, Chinese, Japanese - which what they boast for, three stations of mouth watering deserts and a delectable cold seafood section.



I so wanted to eat more of the clams but twice I bit something hard like stones. Grr! I hate it when I hit something like that.

Hubby all too excited to eat. Did you notice Carousel's signature silverware holder? Unique isn't it?

The dessert stations.


My freshly cooked pesto pasta! I love seeing my food being cooked before my eyes.

And what's more, they also offer unlimited coffee and tea. Yey!

I took the lowest intensity but I still am not bale to finish the strong kick of the coffee after two sips.


So what can I say about my trip here at Carousel. Uhmm... I like the modern touch of the furniture. The Japanese section was good. I like the sweetness of their California maki. The cold seafood is good. But, the tables are not wide apart enough for you to have some privacy. You could actually hear what the next table is talking about. There are not much choices and special dishes served at each stations. The roast beef is a little tough and the sauce is bland. Refills of some of the food will not be made until you call the attention of the staff.


If you'd ask me if I'd go back? My answer is, not in the very near future. There are better dining places that is worth the money. Come to think of it I can't exactly tell you what is the best dish that made me ooh in Carousel because there seemed to be none.

Nevertheless, I am still happy that my beau took me to a date. Eating while chatting will never be a bore if it's with him.

I hope you all had a great V-day!
