DE CHOICE HOTEL TAWAU
Pros: They have a unique menu of satays, sausages, nuggets etc (fried-and-on-a-stick food). Their hot drinks were also superb in taste. The pricing was also the lowest (in the hotel category) and their staff was really friendly as well.
Cons: Minor-to-non-existing refills (with not the same quality of food as their first selection). I'm sorry to say but some of the food were suspiciously bought from outside sources (particularly their dessert table). The seats were also not that many so be sure to book early.
Price: RM28 nett
Where: On the ground floor of the De Choice Hotel, Fajar Complex.
Recommendation: I would recommend it due to the pricing alone but probably not for food originality.
SHERVINTON HOTEL TAWAU
Pros: My fave thing with this place was the fact that they provide individual kurmas (dates) for all patrons. It is also worth mentioning that they also had a veggie dal (a dish most commonly found in Indian food). Their desserts and local kuihs were also to die for.
Cons: Apart from their limited spaces, some of their dishes were somewhat overly salty (but I think it's because the chef was fasting as well). My other pet peeve with this place was the ++ pricing.
Price: RM38++ (but it'll be around RM45 ish after all those ++ thingies were added up)
Where: On the 10th floor (and then you do need to go up a floor using the stairs) of Shervinton Hotel, Fajar Complex.
Recommendation: Food were not bad actually but I still can't get over their pricing.
RESTORAN HAFIZAH JALAN UTARA TAWAU
Pros: A friend brought me here and I was really surprise with the wide selection of food. They had this 'themed rice' for the day (for example, Nasi Lemak on Mondays and Nasi Briyani on Wednesdays) system which I found interesting. They also provide different types of local kuihs such as banana fritters, cempedak goreng, ubi goreng etc)
Cons: Since there's no refills to their food, you do need to be fast when taking the food on the first round. Also, there might be some flies flying around (mainly because of the open air, beside the main road location) but do not worry cause the owners are taking enough precaution when preparing & handling their food.
Price: RM16 nett (2nd cheapest in the non-hotel category)
Where: The Restoran Hafizah (Jalan Utara branch), very near to Taman Ria 6
Recommendation: A high recommendation if you're into that whole open air feel
** Well that's all for this year folks! I'll try and do a round-up of all things buffet again next year (unless my pocket says otherwise - sob sob!). So we'll continue with our regular programming after this okay..
