What to do this weekend should be the question of the past, at least for me. Now that there are so many things to do, it can be overwhelming sometimes but if you are looking to just enjoy some food with family and friends, Amari Johor Bahru’s Amaya Gallery hosts Amaya Weekend Flame & Grill buffet.
It was Merdeka and Malaysia Day mood all around when I arrived at the restaurant, but the huge display of seafood in the middle of the buffet caught my attention. The island of fresh seafood displays Cherry Clams, Cold Seafood Salad and an Omakase-like Sushi Bar with Sushi from fresh sea critters of your choice!
If seafood is not your thing, opt for some Pasta dipped in cheese and you may customise what sort of pasta you prefer. The cheesy goodness was almost sinful but still perfect for a cheat day on a weekend.
The fascination continues as I make my way to the Grill section where gorgeously marinated lambs, chicken wings and even more seafood like crabs and prawns are ready for you to pick, grill and drench with a sauce of your choice.
I got lucky as the day I went for the buffet, there was a spread of desserts made out of durian, from Fried Durian which was also the crowd’s favourite, to a tall tower of Durian Profiteroles, Puddings and Mousses, all made of Durians. I had to, of course, grab, bite and munch on every little bit to bask myself in the world of durians and it perfected my weekend experience, definitely.
