Ayam Pelembang for the WIN. Only at Zebra Square Ramadan Buffet

Or perhaps you can call and get them to cook for you. Or mebbe, just mebbe you can order for Raya Open Hour. Pssst…. Invite me tau!


Yes! Ayam Palembang at Zebra Square Ramadan Buffet is one dish that I look forward too, but this year… they included all balado dishes – Terung balado, Tempe balado and my current favourite… Keli balado. Indonesia vibing here… and I am not complaining. I mean…. They even serves sirap Bandung, this practically nails it.
 
Kampung dishes is what Zebra Square is showcasing for this 2023 Ramadan Buffet and I feel the dishes option do brings the kampung atmosphere. Aside from my favourite balado dishes, they do have satay, mee goreng and many more.
 
In my balado excitement, I forgot to take photos…. Haahhahhah… I did videos for Instagram Story and that’s it. Bab balado ni I memang kalah lah. So let me share you my verdict on the balado then (its only fair). The balado in general memang sesuai with my tekak, the blended chili is not too fine (tak terlalu halus), it is a tad spicy so not suitable for kids lah… but not too oily. For me, win lah…. If tak pedas I probably won’t be so excited and if it is sweet, I definitely be upset. I do love spicy food, IYKYK.


The highlight of this year’s dish is the Grilled Lamb, as for other kampung dishes are Daging Gulai Utara, Ikan masin Nenas, Ikan Bakar and etc. Not forgetting air balang to ‘gu’ with the kampung mood.


Early bird promotion offers buy 5 free 1 seating, so book between 26th February to 20th March to enjoy this great offer. Other benefits is that it is free parking for all, plus the venue can accommodate 250-300 pax making it a great place for friend and family buka puasa session.

It’s Pullman Ramadan Buffet again – to a great & prosperous 2023!


You immediately know Ramadan is around the corner when you start getting Ramadan buffet reviews, unlike the last 2-3 year… invitation for buffet reviews was scarce due to the C19 pandemic but this year… it’s a pandemonium, it felt good as it shows business is picking up and everything is going back to normal – pre-Covid era. Hope this last forever, inshaAllah. Aamiin.
 
My first Ramadan buffet review deserves a grandeur welcome to many food reviews to come. Pullman Kuala Lumpur Bangsar is a lucky hotel indeed, not only able to be the first for me to pen down but also because the food is good (kid you not), to those that I like lah… I couldn’t possibly taste all kan nor can I like all. So here is me telling you what I like amongst those that I tasted, and I try to be as fair as possible. Janji.

 
Themed ‘Khazanah Sajian Desa 2023’ for this year’s Ramdan buffet, means I shall first focus on local delicacies and I did just that (sis menjalankan tugas dengan telus lagi lurus bak pembaris, ahaks). I head to nasi gulai kawah, nasi beriani and cauliflower kurma, sampled Mutton Varuval (cos I absolutely love varuval dishes), Oxtail Stew, Spicy Prawn Sambal with Bitter Bean and many more. Yes, the dishes are tasty as the name concocted (in English that is, the local Malay name sounded – biasa jer). And here are my verdict; in not particular order -  drum roll please!



I took the chicken rice’s rice cos it look fluffy like the Care Bear clouds, I was fortunate that the rice doesn’t have the strong chicken rice taste thus pairs well with my local dishes. Infact I kinda like the combo – biasa lah Malaysia suka campur makanan (kita kan banyak mix! [King Coco sangat hahahhahah]). I did try the nasi briani, the taste biasa jer.
 
The best dish falls to gulai kawah - of which I don’t have a photo, I guess the food was so tasty that no photo was taken (so gagal jadi food blogger), I suspected it is mutton cos after eating so banyak my BP went upstairs. But it was worth it lah.



Then I went to get the beriani rice and other dishes that ‘gu’ with the rice – namely Mutton Varuval, Oxtail Stew, Spicy Prawn Sambal and Mutton Curry with Potato. They complemented the rice well just that I was hoping for chicken kurma (just because tha kurma gravy was sedap).
 
Of course, they have sectioned their food stations – Chinese Food, India Food, Malay Food, Pasta and etc. It is easy for one to manoeuvre oneself around when selecting food.


 
I have to also highlight that their the Tarik is yummeh – not too sweet (provided that same adek tarik for you lah… cause different person might just be manis. Hahhahaha…. Good luck!).
 
Other food that you should also try are the satay, Portuguese Ikan Bakar, Shawarma, Tandoori Chicken, Asam Pedas and many many more. The trick is to take small portion of each food if you intent to enjoy this food galore at Pullman.

 
The selection of food at Link All-Day Dining Restaurant at Pullman Kuala Lumpur Bangsar is masterminded by Chef Borhan whom specialises in Malay cuisine. His 30 years of working experience in hotels across South East Asia has earned him a silver medal in the 2009’s Culinaire Malaysia organised by FHM Malaysia.
