The Ultimate Crab Buffet at PARKROYAL on Beach Road IS BACK – We have 10 vouchers to giveaway!

Plaza Brasserie and the Ultimate Crab Buffet

If you like Bah Ku Teh, you will LOVE this Crab Ku Teh – one of the 14 crabs available here.

We Singaporeans love our food. And our crabs.  And unlimited servings of them!

So when the king of all crab buffets first debuted at Parkroyal, it received overwhelming response from local foodies all across the island. Now, the much-anticipated crabfest is finally back – on a glorious one and a half month run that promises to be even bigger and better than before!

The buffet is held at Plaza Brasserie, a restaurant at Parkroyal on Beach Road in the Bugis area. The brasserie is a constant flurry of activity throughout the day as diners from all over the city, crabby after long hours starving in the office, congregate for sumptuous buffets.

If you think that is great, wait till you hear what comes next! To thank our TSL readers, we have been given over $700 worth of vouchers for this crab buffet to giveaway! There are 5 pairs of tickets to be won, so 5 lucky winners will get to bring a companion along to the feast.

The Ultimate Crab Buffet

To say that we were spoilt for choice would be an understatement. The crab buffet features a total of 27 crab dishes, including 14 whole crabs cooked in different styles and curled up on the plates.

“Holy crab,” we heard someone exclaim. We agree.

My hands down favourite and most memorable dish would be the Crab Ku Teh (first picture), which was cooked in a rich broth of crab shells, pork bones and Bak Kut Teh spices. The crab meat tasted amazing after absorbing all the rich flavours of the broth and spices. The dish was served in a claypot for a unique and authentic Crab Ku Teh look. 

Another hot favourite was the Cereal Crab, a new addition to the menu. I was sceptical about this dish, because cereal dishes at buffets are usually lacklustre. However, the dish won me over. The cereal flakes were sweet, crunchy and crispy – a perfect addition to the aromatic curry leaves and juicy crab meat.

Other crab delights include the savoury Marmite Crab, perfectly glazed with a deliciously glossy sauce of maltose and honey. For the true crab connoisseur, there are several other crab dishes available – Salted Egg Yolk Crab, Nonya Crab, XO Crab and so on.

These crustacean delights left us perfectly contented, and I’m sure you’ll feel the same. Don’t be shellfish now – spread the word about this crabtacular buffet! (Okay okay, I am sorry for all the puns!)
