No one will deny that Malaysia is one of the best countries (if not the BEST!) country in the world for buffets. The range of food in a buffet is so extensive that sometimes it’s quite impossible to sample everything. This is true of the wonderful Ramadan dinner buffet at One World Hotel PJ’s NEW Cinnamon Coffee House which was just opened last month. This new Cinnamon Coffee House can seat 600 diners and even offers al fresco dining, a great option for cool mornings as you can be near lush greenery. There are overhead fans so one can dine outside any time.
Buffets are the best way to spend a few hours bonding and catching up with family and friends – bring business associates to Cinnamon Coffee House’s dinner buffet and they will be so impressed. The restaurant has live interactive kitchens which showcase the enormous diversity of different types of cuisine and you will experience the journey from the raw ingredients to the plate and bowl, creating dishes bursting with flavour and unparalleled choices.
I have been to many buffets at different hotels over the years/decades but the Ramadan buffet at Cinnamon Coffee House by far has the most extensive choices I have ever seen. It has more than 100 dishes on 4 rotational menus, the buffet spread is rife with an array of international and local flavours. Actually, it seemed like hundred of choices to me and it probably is because you can for example, request for your pasta to be cooked in several different ways and that is just one of the stations spread over a few aisles. There is a bit of a queue at some of the stations but you never have to wait too long as service is efficient and you are way spoilt for choice here. After 2 hours, I had barely scratched the surface of this buffet spread. I was thinking I probably would need 2 more visits at least to sample 80% of what is on offer here.
I am going to introduce the amazing array of desserts first as that is the first thing you will see as you enter Cinnamon Coffee House.
My favourite part of the dessert spread is the ice cream (it’s so nice to be able to go for endless scoops of ice cream, almost feel like a kid again!). A close second (not really dessert) is the marvelous selection of cheese. We all know how expensive cheese is and believe me when I say the cheese on the platter is beyond superb. I wished I had more room for the creamy brie which must be eaten with the crackers for unparelleled flavour. I can never have enough cheese.
After a long day of fasting, look forward to the massive variety of Ulam, Kerabu, Dates, Fruits and drinks to refresh the palate after a long day of fasting. Enjoy Malay mains such as Bubur Lambuk, Ayam Rendang Minang, Daging Gulai Utara, Dalca Kari Kambing, Ketam Berchili, Ikan Patin Masak Tempoyak, Gulai Ikan with Bendi. Soups offered in the rotational menu include Sup Gearbox, Sup Tulang Rawan, Sup Ekor and much more.
The highlight of the buffet is definitely Cinnamon Coffee House’s well marinated, succulent whole Roasted Lamb and its condiments, a must-try on the list. Apart from the Roasted Lamb, the buffet spread features traditional authentic kampung food such Roasted Chicken Percik style and Roasted Marinated Whole Beef Tenderloin with Mixed Condiments, Murtabak, various types of ikan panggang, assorted grilled satay. Opor Daging Masak Pekan style, Gulai Kawah Kambing and lots more.
A Ramadan feast would not be complete without the ‘Goreng-gorengan’ station, where diners can enjoy keropok lekor, pisang goreng, keledek and other deep-fried treats. If you are not a really fan of Malay cuisine, there are other delicacies for you to break fast with such as the Chinese station where you would not want to miss out on our signature Hainan Chicken Rice, Szechuan Hot & Sour Soup, Double Boiled Chicken Soup with Dried Scallop and Cordyceps Flower, Seafood Cantonese Fried Noodles and much more.
Hopping to the Indian station, Prawn and Lamb Masala, Tandoori Chicken, Lamb Massaman are some of the items on the counter. The seafood counter offers Slipper Lobster, Tiger Prawns, Blue & Black Mussels, alongside a wide seafood on ice such as fresh Oysters, Crabs, Prawns, Mussels and lots more. Japanese foodies will be also be pleased to see the sight of a luscious spread of assorted Sashimi and Sushi as well as the Tempura live station.
To culminate the evening on a sweet note, enjoy the heavenly desserts that one must try for a contented tummy. Be treated to delectable desserts such as Assorted Malay Kuih, Pulut Serawa Durian, Ice Kacang, Cendol, assorted Agar-Agar, assorted cakes, six different types of ice cream and many more. While you are dining, be entertained with the live Ghazal music performance, from 23rd March until 20th April 2023, from 7.00 pm onwards.
The hotel also offers guests a designated prayer room (Surau), prayer mats and on-site ablution facility on the Concourse Level, allowing guests to comfortably perform their religious duties before breaking fast.
