A couple months ago, nadnut & her hubby Skai along with Leon & myself we were invited to Azur Buffet for a food tasting and we had a feast!

So I was really excited when Carrie from Crown Plaza Hotel invited us to check out their latest Chinese New Year specials for Azur Buffet!

Was told that the other bloggers would be a little late so i started my "1st round" at the buffet line! Hahahah first thing rush to the fresh seafood corner! So so so fresh i had like 10 of 'em. If i wasn't sooooo full by the end of the food tasting i would've had more!

Craving for oysters FOR.EVER. Yes really. The BKK Chinatown oyster image keeps popping into my mind. I would FLY to bkk for that chinatown bkk style amazingly fresh oysters.

DANGER: WAR ZONE HAHAHA 
The chef said that this is at least 5kg of yu sheng, SAY WHAT?! NO WONDER SO HEAVYYY!

Azur Buffet CNY10

I loooooove that their Yu sheng is soooo fresh! I've eaten my fair share of yu sheng (obviously! at least 4-5 times every Chinese New Year since i was a young girl!) and the yu sheng is SO FRESH! I've eaten some really dry and eeky ones and this is nothing like that. 

FYI if you walk in and want to buy one of these Yu Sheng, you gotta WAIT. Because the chef really prepare the finely shredded ingredients on-the-spot to ensure 100% fresh experience! So call in to make reservation if you want to take-away for your CNY parties at home! 

Also I love that they included japanese pickled radish, picked cucumber, wakame seaweed and Bak Hwa strips, so delicious and really full of surprises unlike the usual boring yu sheng. :D
