Honestly, I don’t know any buffet that is Halal because I am a Chinese. Having said that, I wouldn’t mind trying one!! I used to have issues with finding places for buffets with my Muslim friends until I met 1 Market.
1 Market is opened by Chef Wan, the famous Television Chef of the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards 2009 and Tourism Malaysia’s Culinary Ambassador.
Hari Raya is approaching, so for the month of Ramadan (28 June to 27 July), Chef Wan will be whipping up dishes from around the world for all his foodie fans!! Yayyy to all the Muslim (and non Muslim) friends! You can get to try the different exotic specialties from different nations.
And from 10 July to 28 July, you will be able to find a whole truckload of seafood because they are running the Seafood Extravaganza everyday! The interior is very spacious so it can sit a school of people.
Well, as usual, James went to feast with me. We are both growing sideways already. HELPPPPP~ Keep all the good food away from us!!
The salmon was quite fresh and we helped ourselves to a third and fourth serving. But the limelight that night was the oysters. I think the guys were filled with Zinc to the brim that night. LOL.
Whenever a particular seafood runs out, it gets replenish fast. The waiting time was greatly shorten and everyone managed to try what they wanted. Keep the seafood coming babbbyyy.
The considerate thing was that the sauces were readily available beside all the food. For example, they had 3 big bottles of tabasco beside the plates. Save you on the snatching part.
The variety of cooked seafood/food was also huge. One of the hot item was this! It was wiped out within 5-10 minutes each time it was served.
Likewise for the satay.
Being a fan of Japanese Cuisine, I had to try out their sushi and Chawanmushi. There is just something addictive about the Chawanmushi. I had 6 cups that night.
And more cooked food!
There were also stations where you can create your own rojak or desserts like Ice Kachang.
Food that were prepared on the spot like Laksa or Mee Rebus were also one of my many options. The laksa was good. In fact, I would find it better than the laksa outside.
Desserts were not just plain desserts. From Kuehs to ice creams to green bean soup to cakes and many many more.
Please try their brownie and cheese cake when you are there.
You would normally expect to see a steeper price for the wide variety of food, especially with it being halal. But on the contrary, they are very affordable!
