Sunday is a family day for the family members to get together. One of the best things to spend on a Sunday afternoon is to go to the restaurant or food outlet to enjoy some good food with the family.

I know that we should not spend lavishly when the global economy is having its downturn. We also wouldn’t know when the economy will revive to a promising level if not at its peak. However, this doesn’t mean that we cannot bring our family members to the restaurant to have some nice food.

As mentioned in my past few posts, many restaurants and hotels are promoting economical buffets to attract more people to eat buffet so as to bring in business. I think this is a good business strategy so as to make people feel that they are still able to afford to eat at the restaurant by paying less.

My family and I popped in to a Xin Hua style Chinese restaurant to order the Pu Tian cuisine at a nearby shopping mall. The price of $12.80 SG is considered reasonable for a high-tea buffet that starts from 3pm to 5pm.

Although there were not too many varieties of Pu Tian dishes to be chosen from, I think we should not ask for too much in view of the low price tag.

Pu Tian Fried Buns :

Pu Tian Spring Rolls :

Stir-Fried Yam :

Chili Mussels :

Drunken Cockles :

Duck and Yam Roll with Chinese New Year Cake :

Orange-Flavoured Chicken Wings :

Oyster Cakes :

Pan-Fried Gyoza (or Guo Tie) :

Steamed Pork Buns (or Xiao Long Bao) :

Mushroom Soup :

Yam Paste with Ginko Nut :

Mixed-Fruit Delight :

I would say Pu Tian cuisine has its own speciality that belongs to the Xin Hua style. It is another taste of the different group among the various types of Chinese food. Well, I still prefer the Cantonese cuisine to the Pu Tian.

Anyway, my family and I had enjoyed our high-tea buffet and we think this was value for money for the low price.
