LUNCH
BUFFET
AT
SERENDIB
Serendib
is
an
Indian
and
Sri
Lanakan
restaurant
in
Jabi
which
offers
authentic
Indian,
Sri
Lankan
and
Asian
cuisine.
They
host
a
Lunch
buffet
every
Sunday
and
for
International
Women's
day,
I
was
invited
to
try
out
their
Lunch
buffet.
They
also
offer
a
Breakfast
Buffet.
So
what
do
I
think:
Before
dining,
the
Head
Chef
went
through
each
course
and
explained
all
the
dishes
to
us.
He
also
spoke
about
the
kind
of
cuisine
the
restaurant
offers.
For
starters,
I
had
chicken
noodle
soup,
vegetable
samosas,
chicken
pie
and
different
kinds
of
bread.
The
soup
was
warm
and
really
tasty.
It
had
chunks
of
noodles,
chicken
and
veggies.
The
bread
which
included
Sri
Lankan
bread
were
mildly
flavoured
with
the
herbs
and
spices
they
were
infused
with.
The
samosas
and
pie
were
decent.
For
mains,
I
tried
a
bit
of
everything.
I
had
the
chicken
biryani,
mashed
potatoes,
beef
stew,
steamed
vegetables,
chicken
koththu
roti,
hot
&
spicy
chicken
and
monogolian
beef
noodles.
The
chicken
biryani
featured
rich
Indian
spices
and
chunks
of
chicken
which
we
liked.
The
mash
needed
some
more
butter
and
cream.
The
beef
stew
was
a
rich
and
hearty
dish
quite
similar
to
Nigerian
stew.
The
chicken
koththu
roti
tasted
exactly
butter.
It
was
light
and
melted
in
your
mouth.
Our
favourite
thing
from
the
mains
was
the
Monogolian
beef
noodles.
The
beef
was
perfectly
seasoned,
the
noodles
had
a
great
texture
and
the
veggies
still
had
their
crunch.
The
best
part
about
this
dish
is
you
get
to
watch
while
it
is
being
made.
Swipe
to
see
it
being
made!
For
dessert,
I
had
cheesecake,
chocolate
gateaux,
custard,
yoghurt,
jelly
and
rainbow
cake.
The
cheesecake
and
chocolate
gateau
were
great
and
nicely
sweet.
The
custard
was
infused
with
banana
and
had
a
mild
sweetness.
The
yoghurt
was
slightly
sour
and
light.
The
buffet
cost
5500
naira
and
drinks
are
not
inclusive.
Another
good
thing
about
the
buffet
here
is
that
they
offer
vegetarian
options
of
every
single
dish
I
tried.
