I am officially a buffet convert
I am sitting here writing a post-dinner blog to allow my dinner to settle. When Paul suggested the buffet for dinner here at the Magellan Sutera Resort, I thought he was crazy.

Eyes too big for our bellies!
Once again, Paul and I stuffed ourselves silly at Suang Tain Seafood Restaurant. Tonight’s dishes were stir fried choy sum, scallops with ginger and spring onion, crab with salted egg, beef noodles, lemon crispy skin chicken and the fried eggplant that we sampled last night. Mmm, mmm, mmm! The aftermath!

The perfect way to start the day
Enough said I think!
There is something fishy about this place….
There are fish everywhere! At Alu Alu, I found myself in seafood heaven – all manner of seafood in aquarium tanks as you enter and you have the treat of watching a vast array of fish swimming around beneath the restaurant as you dine. The sightings were constant and included Trevally, Tiger Groper, jellyfish and … Continue reading
