China Wuxi : Intercontinential Hotel Breakfast Buffet Review

View from my hotel room in the morning - rather misty or maybe just haze



My colleague told me about the wonderful buffet spread in this hotel and i look forward to have breakfast here . I went down sharp at 7am to breakfast restaurant and was one of the earliest there.
overnight oats - with different flavors
Is already very bright at 7am.


Loves this part of the breakfast - freshly squeeze juices .





Breads , donuts , muffins and pastries available. Not sure whether they are made here .

Cold cuts - but didint try . Dont dare to eat

Another fav of mine , cheese station .
Lots of freshly cuts fruits - but dont really like their watermelon and honeydew -a bit too sweet (i think they added sugar into the fruits)



Twinnings tea - my fav too ...
Soy milk station

Chinese dessert
Tim sum and they have wuxi xiao long pao .
Doesnt taste like those in Dragon-i .The skin a bit too thick.

They have noodle station which i did not try at all .

Fried Yau Char Kuih - serve with porridge

Porridge stations - they have at least 5 different porridge types

more meat station - a bit geli - try once only and didnt like it .

steam fish - didint try cos Wuxi's fish taste weird - i think the only have river fish

omelet station



Sushi station

Prego @ The Westin Kuala Lumpur : Marcus 31th Birthday Celebration

Last weekend is Marcus's 31th Birthday, and at the same time we are back in Subang . So we took this opportunity to celebrate at one of those restaurants in KL .

Since we both loves italian food , we ended up in Prego , Westin Kuala Lumpur. 
Arrived too early that day so waited at the lobby for the restaurant to open . They only starts operation at 12noon.


Hard to locate the small entrance of the restaurant.

We are served with sour dough breed with salsa dip . The bread is serve warm ... huge for 2 person,

We are the first customer that day .


Pricing is slightly on the high side . What to do  , hotel restaurant ma .


entree : minestrone soup - tasteless and slightly disappointing . One of the worst ever tasted.
Not sure whether the original Italian minestrone soup suppose to taste like this . I think i can cook better.
One of the recommended dishes on four square : Salted crust Bake Sea Bass . Waited nearly 1 hour for this fish to cook.

The waiter help to de boned everything for you
Done . The waiter memang got skill , de- boned everything in 10 minutes.
Served with lemon mustard sauce and steam potato . Taste wise , fresh bake fish with hint of sea salt .
Quarto pizza - come after 1 hour plus . I think the waiter forgotten about our order. Taste slightly salty but i guess is normal for cheese pizza.
Ate half only and tapao the remaining half  .

Trying out tiramisu is a must in every italian restaurant . But this tiramisu taste normal . Disappointing .

Total bill comes up to RM145 after discount of 25%cimb card. I forgotten to bring my wallet , if not entitle 35% discount for Citibank card.

Reasonable price if you have credit card discount.

Every Sunday they have this Bubbalicious Lunch - buffet sunday brunch ,however during our visit they do not have this buffet.

Prego @ The Westin Kuala Lumpur
Address: 199, Jalan Bukit Bintang, Bukit Bintang, 55100 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur
