Ethan turns 3 today. I have taken off today in hope to bring Ethan out in the morning for his favorite bowling game. However, PaPa fell ill and had taken medical leave so we are home bound. I couldn't do any outdoor activities with Ethan due to the haze level so we decided to send him for his usual morning class at 1030am.
I have arranged for a dinner at Dining room at Sheraton Towers. The good part about this buffet dinner is that kids below 6 dines free. I wanted to book Melt and Aquamarine (both around marina area) and they had been fully booked till Sat (blame it on my last minute planning), despite the high charges. We thought of trying out Cafe Biz at Trader's but PaPa decided to opt for Dining room for it's waterfall feature. To be honest, since I am a local food lover, we realised that we have not had buffets together as a family for the last 8 years!!! Most of the time, we would dine at Ding Tai Fung (all time fav for the boys), Crystal Jade or other Dim Sum chinese restuarant, or Mac's, KFC for the kids. Or otherwise, we would settle for my fav chicken rice, bbq chicken wings, hokkien noodles, fish soup, prawn noodles, zi char or ngoh niang somewhere.
We reached the hotel around 650pm and were really hungry. Ethan and Caden were fairly behaved at first since they needed to fill their tummies. Caden surprised me by wanting to tag along when I told them that I'll help to get some food for them, and he brought along his child plate. Caden was adventurous to take some food from the sashimi counter, salad bar and some english bread (and his small little plate was already fully filled). PaPa got some ee-fu noodles for Ethan and he enjoyed it happily. I specially like the fried shrimp wantons but PaPa like the ee-fu noodles most. Generally, the food selection was quite wide and their desserts were good. Throughout the whole dinner, there's a live band singing soothing melodies at the drinking lounge which is located near the Dining Room. So the ambience was good. We probably come in for another round of dinner before Caden turns 6 next year (to take advantage of the child limit charges!).
