In Hong Kong, eating a buffet is "food po fēi", and "po fēi" is the most convenient way to eat for Hong Kong people, and it is also a good choice for family dinners. Most of Hong Kong's boutique buffets are gathered in star-rated hotels or high-end shopping malls, which are different from affordable buffets, which have a higher standard in terms of ingredients, environment and service, and of course the price is relatively high. In addition, many buffet restaurants in Hong Kong are all day long, i.e. breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner are available.
Choosing the number one boutique buffet restaurant in Hong Kong is no easy task, and almost every restaurant has a standardized quality of dishes. Harbour Plaza Metropolis may not be the top hotel in the city, but its Promenade restaurant stands out from the crowd of buffet restaurants with its rich menu variety and stable production standards. Although the buffet restaurant constantly changes the menu according to the season, at Promenade Western Restaurant, there is a wide variety of Eastern and Western dishes, and the common buffet classics are almost always absent. To put it more intuitively, Promenade has a richer and more complete variety of lunch markets alone than some restaurants' evening markets.
The Promenade is simply a corridor, and the restaurant's buffet food is lined up along a curved corridor with feeding areas on either side, which is enough to feast the eyes on the visual side alone. The lunch market offers a wide variety of international cuisines, including a fresh Japanese sashimi section with a dedicated chef freshly cut for diners. In addition, there are tuna, scallops, flounder, etc., Hong Kong's hotel-style restaurants are relatively strict in the control and handling of ingredients, so sashimi lovers can eat with confidence, but diners with a bad stomach should also control the intake of raw and cold food, and you may wish to choose some hot food as a base when eating sashimi seafood. Before the official meal, there are different flavors of salad in the salad section at the door, and seasonal fruits such as watermelon and pineapple are also indispensable, which can be appetizing and greasy before and after the meal.
The restaurant's curved corridor has a high utilization rate of ingredients, and on the left is freshly baked pastries, and it is worth mentioning that durian egg tarts, matcha cakes, soufflés and other freshly made baked pastries are of a very good standard. Freshly plucked oysters from France and the United States are plucked by one chef on the spot and cleaned by another chef before being distributed to the awaiting diners, ensuring freshness and cleanliness. In addition, there are various Chinese dishes such as stewed soup and noodles, and there is also a raw porridge and coffee drink area at the end of the corridor. On the right side of the corridor, there are classic Western delicacies such as thinly sliced Burma ham, Italian breadsticks, frozen mussels, frozen prawns, a dazzling variety of desserts and different flavors and sizes of Häagen-Dazs ice cream in the freezer, which are very popular with children. If you are a diner with children, the free-mix ice cream balls in the dessert area will attract the attention of children.
The restaurant will launch a buffet with different themes according to the season, and the mid-season dinner will focus on crab, and the Chinese and Western cooking methods strive to meet the needs of more diners, and those who love crab may wish to take advantage of this feast. It is worth mentioning that the buffet restaurants in Hong Kong are relatively in place and timely in replenishing the empty plate dishes, so you don't have to worry about the problem of long-term continuity of popular dishes during meal time. Although the Oysters at Promenade are limited to two per person at a time, you can still queue up to receive them after eating, and Häagen-Dazs Ice Cream is not limited to each person like most buffets in mainland China.
Promenade is located on the 7th floor of Harbour Plaza Hotel, the innermost side of the hotel lobby, with a semi-circular shape on the upper floor, a curved corridor on the upper floor for food ingredients, and a semi-circular area on the lower floor for the dining area, where diners can see the view of Victoria Harbour through floor-to-ceiling transparent windows. Most restaurants in Hong Kong charge an "plus one" service charge, which is 10% of the cost of the meal, and Promenade is no exception. Reservations must be made in advance for all meals, and the waiter will divide the seats in advance and lead them to the seats.
