During our Christmas dinner with relatives, we've heard a lot of good comments about Buffet 101 so we finally decided to try it out. The place was already packed when we arrived at the time for our reservation with many seated at the waiting area.
Glancing from the outside, one can already see through its crystal clear glass walls the beautiful and elegant ambiance that Buffet 101 has to offer. It's modernistic and luxurious interiors with chandeliers, crystal curtains and soft leatherette seating makes your feel like you are in a five star hotel.
A distinguishing feature at Buffet 101 is their Live Suahe Station, where you could watch as the chef gathers live Suahe (greasyback shrimp) and dips in boiling water. Although I've always been hesitant with dishes with shells on, I am very glad that I did not miss this! The freshly cooked Suahe was so soft, juicy and naturally sweet.
Buffet 101 offers a lot of Chinese selections. In the just along the same lane as the Live Suahe Station, you can find the Dimsum Section, Chinese Cold Cuts, Hot Pot (Shabu-Shabu) Section, Pecking Duck Section and Roasted Duck Section. I'm glad they had my favorite Chinese Fried Buns too!
Their Pecking Duck is so succulent, you certainly can't miss it! I don't want to stuff myself over the same kind of food but I couldn't resist having second and thirds of this.
Tsinoy Foodies Verdict
Overall, we were very satisfied with the meal. We came home stuffed to our hearts content. For the price, it is very affordable since it includes expensive dishes such as Pecking Duck, Steak and more!

They also have a wide range of Japanese selections especially for appetizers such as sushi, makis and temakis. They also had Japanese dishes like Beef Teriyaki, Chicken Teppanyaki, Pork Chazu, Katsu Hanna and ♥Tempura Shrimp.
Buffet 101 also has a live grilling station where you can order Lamb Chops, ♥Rib Eye Steak, Sirloin Steak, barbecue or liempo to be grilled for you. You have to wait or come back at about 5-10 minutes before you can have it since it was not delivered to your table. They also had grilled turkey and roast beef which they said was delicious. I suggest you try the Rib Eye Steak instead of the Sirloin Steak because the Sirloin Steak is tougher to chew.

| Seafood Grilling By Order |
Aside from the meat, you can also have your choice of seafood to be grilled. Just give your table number and have them delivered at your table. If you don't want grilled, they have a selection of baked cheesy oysters and mussels.
There have a pastry section with a limited choice of dips and cheese. I didn't mind. I actually skipped this section because there were better options.

They had more appetizers and side dishes to offer. They had Chinese cold cuts again with the Century Egg and Seaweeds. There was smoked salmon and salad mixes like Grilled tuna mix. Aside from ready-to-eat salads, there was a salad bar too.
