Ahh birthdays again. But this one's 'special'. It's the first time we were out as a family for a celebration meal. Meimei had planned it out perfectly with reservations at Peppermint. 萱萱 didn't have school today and we pulled 阳阳 out of childcare before lunch.
The selection is good. They have a cold bar with salad and Thai cold dishes. The seafood section was adequate with fresh prawns and crab. The sushi bar was a plated service so you couldn't just grab a whole bunch of sashimi. The hot food section boasted a good spread of pasta, meats, vegetables and soup like any creditable buffet would. They could do better on dessert but I think they were going with a Thai theme so choices were limited. The ice cream bar always helps though. Overall pretty satisfied with the available choices.
This is the first time the kids been to a buffet so they were undoubtedly excited and in high spirits. We let them have a free rein on what they want to eat so they were all in on the fried stuff. We did however ask them to save some space for desserts. They had a few servings of ice cream which must have been a dream for them since they normally don't get that much.
I'm happy we came out for lunch. It shows we have moved into the next stage of life where we can start bringing kids out for activities and fun. No more strollers, milk bottle, pampers or nap time to worry about. I'm looking forward to more outings with Meimei and kids.
