Highlights of the buffet are a selection of dishes from Peninsular Malaysia's Northern states, each offering a local culinary heritage. From Penang, guests can relish the iconic Rojak Pasembor, a visually-striking salad combining crispy fritters, fresh vegetables, and a delectably sweet and tangy sauce.

Accompanying this is the beloved Char Kuey Teow, a flat rice noodle dish renowned for its smoky flavour, achieved through a high heat stir-frying process that infuses the noodles with a rich, charred aroma. From Perak, savour the rich and comforting Yong Tau Foo as well as Rendang Tok, a staple dish frequently enjoyed by the State Royal Family since the 1950s. 

From Perlis, take heart in some Daging Gulai Kawah, known for its rich and aromatic flavour. This dish features tender beef slowly simmered in a creamy coconut milk and seasoned with a blend of aromatic spices and curry powder.

Journeying to the Southern states of Peninsular Malaysia, the sumptuous buffet showcases a selection of dishes that captures the essence of regional comfort and flavour. From Johor, diners can indulge in Laksa Johor with an East-meets-West fusion that saw a rich, thick and spicy gravy (kuah laksa) made from fresh herring mounted on top of the spaghetti. Apart from Laksa Johor, also opt for the Sayur Goreng Jawa, a stir-fried medley of vegetables, tempe, and tofu that is immersed in a spicy, sambal sauce. 

From Negeri Sembilan, we present Telor Itik Masak Lemak, a rich and creamy dish of duck eggs cooked in coconut milk with aromatic spices. Additionally, Rendang Ayam Minang, a delectable dish that is prepared in a rich coconut milk and seasoned with a combination of spices, comprising of turmeric, ginger, garlic, lemongrass, and chillies. The adopted slow cooking process intensifies the flavours, resulting in a cuisine that is both aromatic and tender.

From Malacca, the buffet highlights the iconic Ayam Pongteh as well as Ikan Pari Asam Pedas, a distinctive dish of stingray prepared in a tangy and spicy tamarind-based sauce. The sharp acidity of the tamarind and the intense spice of the sauce create a vibrant and bold culinary experience that highlights Malacca’s unique culinary heritage.

The East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia states present a refined selection, beginning with Pahang’s Patin Masak Tempoyak, where the fish is cooked with a paste made using durian flesh. From Kelantan, take delight in some Kambing Kuzi, a traditional lamb dish braised in a rich and flavoursome mix of spices, as well as Sotong Sumbat, squid stuffed with glutinous rice and thereafter, cooked in thick coconut milk sweetened with brown palm sugar. Terengganu’s traditional Nasi Dagang with Gulai Ikan Tongkol, features fragrant coconut milk rice served with an aromatic fish curry made with skipjack tuna.

From the West Coast / Central Peninsular Malaysia, one can expect the nation’s iconic National Dish - Nasi Lemak, paired with Ayam Goreng Berempah which exudes robust notes of aromatic spices, and accompanied by sambal, hard-boiled egg, cucumber and toasted peanuts.
