Italian Tea Buffet at Alkaff Mansion (10 Telok Blangah Green, Singapore 109178) Reservation: 6510 3068

Visited on 25 July 2015 (Sat). 

Italian Tea Buffet: Every Saturday from 11.30am – 3.00pm

Last seating: 2.15pm (Restaurant closes at 3.00pm, last order & last pour at 2.30pm)

$40++ per person 

$18++ per child (Ages 5 – 12)

Note: If there is a wedding event on that Saturday, there won't be any live violin music session for the high tea buffet as the violinist need to perform for the wedding event.  This happened to us on that day and we were very disappointed! (We were not informed by the staff) You can even hear the Yum Seng from the wedding event upstairs which were quite disturbing sometimes...






7 Selections at Dessert Bar














Mushroom Soup


2 Pizza Selection


The pizza were decent and dry...


Cheese Section


Cold Cut Section


Appetizers





Sea Bass with Clams, Squids and Prawns
The sea bass was tender, complemented well with the assorted seafood!



Roasted Potatoes with Rosemary and Beef Tenderloin with Veal Jus



Assorted Italian Pasta



Crepes Suzette Station


I'm always very delighted to see crepes station and it was a lovely dessert!


Eggs Station

Note: Only 1 choice of Sunny Side Up with a slice of bacon at the eggs station, I must say the chef was very good in cooking sunny side up. We ordered 4 times and the yolk never failed to be runny! His skills of cooking egg was so good till I really feel like having 10 pieces! Hahaha...



Help Yourself with the Free Flow of 3 Tea Selection and 1 Regular Coffee Provided


The coffee served here was very normal type of coffee which was disappointing at a Italian restaurant.


Overall Impression: This is a very casual Italian Tea Buffet. Service was ok. I'm a super dessert lover and I find that the dessert bar items here were lacklustre, nothing impressed me. Only the egg and crepe station, seabass, pasta were good. The rest were very decent. After 2 rounds, we felt like nothing else to eat - Very limited variety. So we kept going back for the same few items that we like which was very boring. I felt the price of $40++ per person is not on par with the quality and variety.
