Pariss International Buffet ( Marina Square )

Today's father's day and dinner was at Pariss International ( the Marina Square branch )
I've never eaten at Paris before, however sadly it was a pretty disappointing experience for me.

For the about we paid ( About 45 bucks per person ) i could have gotten a better international buffet elsewhere. Or even if i had to top up abit more for a better buffet - fankly i wouldn't mind.

Anyway lets start with the review!
Deco : Nothing fancy, visually the place looks very cluttered.
Service : The people on the phone were not friendly, plates were cleared slowly.

Food - i shall go through it cuisine by cuisine.

Seafood - Despite the whole range of seafoods available, The seafood was not really fresh. The worse among the lot was the Black Pepper Crab. Seriously, the crab wasn't of good quality, i had abit and felt terrible. - 4/10

Japanese Food - one word - pathetic. Sushi wasn't well done, variety was bad. Sushi Tei serves tastier Sashimi , only thing that was ok was the Chawamushi. 2/10

Chinese - Was ok , fried rice , fried vegetables , some dim sum , lotsa deep fried stuff, IMO chinese food was quite standard, nothing special. - 6/10

Grill ( Western ) - Portions are very small. Quality is not impressive either. I like the idea that it's cooked to order, but when i ordered beef steak, i expect a chunk of meat. To my disappointment, they served me a SLICE OF BEEF. About the thickness of 1 1/2 Compact Flash cards! - 5/10

Desserts - The desert fridge was quite a disappointment. Cakes were nothing special. It's like those kinda cakes that you get from those budget high teas. ( small , not so tasty , mass produced ones ) They served durain puffs with FROZEN durain paste inside! - That's unacceptable! It tasted horrible! Dessert was a huge disappointment. Ice cream was ok though. Standard nothing special - 4/10

They did put in some effort by providing a range of teas though - however that's not enough to compensate for the mediocre level of food quality they offer.

Overall Contentment level - 3.5/10.
Value for money - 3/10

Honestly, i regretted eating there, i should have went to Pan pacific hotel or to eat instead.
Oh well - Just my opinion.
