The Line @ Shangri-la Hotel

16 food stations including the Crustacean Bar, the Italian Counter, the Grill, and the Ice Cream Teppenyaki among others. The Line will have you spoilt for choice.

Located at the lower lobby level of Shangri-la Hotel, The Line is an open-concept buffet joint which just opened last year. Lit by warm orange lighting, the overall ambience is cozy and relaxing and the service is good. Everytime you go off for your next round of food, the waiters will clear your plate and refold the napkin neatly on the table for you. So you can imagine how many times they actually had to do that throughout the night!

We tried almost everything from the tissue prata to the fresh scallops and grilled prawns, dim sum, sushi and crepes with fruit jams! The queue at the pasta station would not have deterred me from trying it, if not for my tummy protesting after being loaded with too much food. I was most attracted by the inviting display of the dessert table, with its wide array of tiramisu, cakes and pies.

As hotel prices go, this is not easy on the wallet but it is a great place to try out if you feel like giving yourself a really good treat!
