Beach Road Kitchen at JW Marriott Singapore South Beach gets it right on quite a few fronts. The beautiful black-frame and marble interior finishes on Beach Road, it probably brings on the best buffet on a weekend. A large selection of grilled meats, premium seafood, Asian cuisine and tonnes of family fun. Beach Road Kitchen is extremely kids-friendly, if that’s an important criteria for you. Read on to find out more.
A Seafood Room to welcome you
The cold starters are simply inviting. Laid out neatly over a bed of ice, the fresh prawns, clams, mussels and oysters are there for the taking. The oysters were plump and juicy, but I thought they could do with a bit more condiments instead of just Tabasco sauce and lemons. Not everyone’s as big a fan of raw oysters as I am!
The dinner buffet offers a selection of pre-sliced salmon and tuna sashimi, with a higher fat ratio that resulted in slices melting in our mouths. Step into this temperature-controlled Seafood Room to explore the wonders of antipasti and fresh seafood offerings.
Fresh from Charcoal Grill Station
I think the winning formula is the use of good cuts of meat here. Have a pick your fish of choice. It was not just huge, but really tender and fragrant, with the smokiness from the charcoal grill. Squeeze on a tiny bit of lemon before digging in and you’ll find that the taste will wow you away..
If you’re generally carnivorous at a buffet, go straight for the grilled section because you’ll be very pleased at the wide range of steaks, lamb chops and more.
Enjoy local favorites from Noodle Bar
Beach Road Kitchen makes dining experience more interesting by allowing us to select from an assortment of ingredients and noodle choices like a good bowl of Laksa. You get to see the chef preparing it right before your eyes.
There are many other Asian delights from their cooked food station where you get interesting dishes like Chili Crabs!
Dessert Station – For the sweet tooth
Desserts here are pretty straightforward. Most of them are pre-made and laid out at the buffet line. But, you also get desserts made on the spot at some live stations – pancakes and ice-cream!
If you cannot decide between so many dessert choices, end off your meal with an ice cream or chocolate with a cup of good coffee.
Verdict
This is one buffet where I’ll really let the kids grow up and roam around on their own. Beach Road Kitchen is really family-friendly. With menus dedicated to many hot favorite foods of your life, it is certainly one of the best buffets to go for!
