Italian Buffet at Ristorante Beccari, Merdeka Palace

There are not many Italian food outlets around town, let alone Italian buffets, but Ristorante Beccari at Merdeka Palace Hotel puts on quite a good spread. Ambiance is warm and cosy, place is nicely decorated and food quality is surprisingly above expectations.

There is a good range of tasty Italian appetisers which I won't even bother trying to spell...
Open-concept kitchen with fire-oven baked pizzas which adds to the authenticity...

Pick your pasta, then pick your sauce, and have it cooked on the spot by the restaurant chef. I thought all bolognaise sauces were the same until I tried theirs which was surprisingly different...

Desserts galore...Overall, a great dining experience. Not the type of buffet where you go and see how much food you can stuff in your stomach cos you'll be pretty full from the pasta and creamy sauces. The buffet is only available on Sunday evenings starting from 6.30 pm till 10 pm. It costs rm 59++ per person which is rm 67.85 after the stupid service and government tax.
