The Shangri-la Hotel Trilogy: Lemon Garden Cafe
Finally, we reach the end of our Shangri-la Hotel journey -
The Lemon Garden Cafe. I've been to the cafe several times in the past, and they've never let me down before.

| Salad Bar |
Let's start with some appetizers shall we!
 |
| Alaskan King Crab |
OMG!! The crab legs were so so sweet! Although it was a little bit of work to de-shell them, but it was worth every effort!
 |
| Crayfish |
Did not try this - so, no comment, but they looks super yummy though!
 |
| Fresh Oysters |
Oysters!! Who doesn't love fresh oysters!!!! Squeeze some fresh lime, and my personal favourite - tabasco - and I'm ready to chow down couple of them!
 |
| My assorted cold appetizers |
|
 |
| Scallop with Roe |
|
I love scallops, but I love the roe even more! I was jumping up and down (inside my heart...) when I saw this on the cold dishes counter. The scallops were sweet too!
Next, let's move to some warm appetizers! And yes....I actually prefer appetizers in a buffet line...LOL!!!
 |
| Crab Cake |
 |
| Shrimp with Capers |
Whoever read my previous posts, would know that I'm totally a big fan of capers!!!!
 |
| Smoked Duck Breast with Plum Sauce |
A dish that I'll definitely looked for whenever I'm at the cafe - Smoked Duck Breast with Plum Sauce.
 |
| Monk Fish with Mango Salsa |
Now, some Japanese!
 |
| Cold Soba |
The soba was so-so. Didn't quite like the texture of the noodles.
 |
| Salmon Sashimi, Octopus Sashimi (Top), Fresh Prawn Sushi |
I couldn't help but to attack the shrimp when I saw them. I guess I love my food to be raw! LOL!!!
They have other choices as Indian cuisine:
Not a fan of all these spices? Fred not! They have some familiar Chinese cuisine for you to choose from too:
 |
| Duck Wrap with Plum Sauce |
I did not managed to capture more photos of the buffet line and remaining food - there were too many people that night. So, these are what I was able to capture, and I wish I could have took more photos:
 |
| Beef with Brown Sauce |
The beef was a bit too dry. Most probably from sitting under the light for too long.

P/S: Pardon me for not putting up the costs for this post, as we used our Prestige Membership card and hotel vouchers - so forgot to check out the full amount of the dinner buffet.
