Triple Three - International Buffet Restaurant at Mandarin Hotel Orchard

I have not started this food blog the last time I visited Triple Three with my ex-colleagues so this is the first time I am reviewing Triple Three.

Triple Three - Restaurant Front

Lunch Buffet
Saturday: $98++ per adult; $33++ per child (6–12 yrs)
Sunday: $128++ per adult; $48++ per child (6–12 yrs)
Top up $45++ for 2-hour free-flow of Chandon Brut sparkling wine.

Dinner Buffet
Daily: $108++ per adult; $48++ per child (6–12 yrs)

Enjoy 1-for-1 lunch for adults when payment is made using a DBS/POSB/UOB credit or debit card.

Due to Covid-19 regulations, you can’t physically go to the counters and pick the food you want. You have to order from the forms and the staff will serve it to your table just like in RISE Restaurant at Marina Bay Sands.

Triple Three - Cream of Mushroom

Every diner gets a complimentary bowl of Cream of Mushroom soup. The soup is thick and creamy. There are pieces of mushroom in the soup which adds a different texture.

Triple Three - Assorted Seafood Platter

I always start buffets with cold crustaceans and seafood. Assorted Seafood Platter looks a little pathetic with just1 piece of each seafood. There are tiger prawn, black mussel, snow crab leg and yabbies (crayfish). 

Triple Three - SashimiTriple Three - Sushi

There are Sashimi (salmon, tuna, swordfish) and Sushi (ebi sushi, salmon sushi, california roll, spicy tuna roll) from the sashimi station.

Triple Three - Beef CubeTriple Three - Bean Sprout

Beef Cube from the teppanyaki station was the highlight of the meal. Even though the beef cubes are thoroughly cooked, each piece is tender and juicy. Order a serving of Bean Sprouts to balance your meal.

Triple Three - Honey Baked Ham

The carving station was serving Honey Baked Ham on the day I visited. You can pair it with mashed potato, asparagus or sautéed mushroom. 

Triple Three - Carbonara

You have 3 choices of pasta - Seafood Marinara, Aglio Olio or Carbonara with chilli flakes, parmesan cheese and/or onsen egg.

This is Carbonara with Onsen Egg. Each strand of the al dente pasta is coated with creamy cream sauce. The onsen egg that tops the pasta breaks open to reveal runny golden yolk that adds an additional layer of richness.

Triple Three - Slipper Lobster with Black Pepper Sauce

Slipper Lobster with Black Pepper Sauce is a signature dish of Triple Three. I find the meat of the slipper lobster slight tough but the black pepper sauce is spot-on.

Triple Three - Chawanmushi

Chawanmushi from the steam station is silky-smooth with a custard-like texture. It slips right down your throat, leaving a fragrant aftertaste in your mouth. 

Triple Three - Butter Chicken

This is Butter Chicken from the Indian station with plain and garlic naans. This is my first time having butter chicken and I expected it to be creamy and non-spicy. The curry turned out to be extremely spicy but I was right about the creaminess. 

Triple Three - Chocolate Lava CakeTriple Three - Assorted Petit Gateau

Last but not least, Chocolate Lava Cake and Assorted Petit Gateau from the dessert station. The chocolate lava cake is sinfully glorious. Molten chocolate lava flows when you cut into it. My favorite from the assorted cakes has to be the mango mousse cake which is not too sweet and has a lovely mango fragrance. 

Even though Triple Three is an international buffet with various stations, the food standard still pales in comparison to RISE Restaurant at Marina Bay Sands.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
