Spice Market

Spice Market Café is a restaurant located in the Rasa Sayang Resort & Spa, a luxurious hotel in Batu Ferringhi specially catered for the elites who eat caviar for breakfast and drink Coca-Cola for tea.

The International buffet dinner is priced at RM128.00++, beyond the affordable range of Tom, Dick and Harry (except Prince Harry). Therefore when the restaurant offered buy-one-free-one promotion recently, we did not hesitate long before we placed our reservation (yes, this is absolutely necessary) and headed to Batu Ferringhi on the selected night.

The first unfortunate victims of our gluttony were from the seafood division: Crayfish, Crabs, Scallops, Clamps, Shrimps, Squid etc. These are food that take up little space in our stomach, but generate huge voids in the pocket if we were to order them à la carte.

The next casualties were the land-based animals, who reluctantly sacrificed their flesh for the greater good: Beef Stew, Satay (Malay skewers), Tandoori Chicken, Roasted Chicken, Mutton Curry etc.

Then, we did a banzai-style invasion by tackling Sashimi (raw sliced salmon) and various types of Sushi.

When satisfied with the carnage we made thus far, we turned our attention to other dishes, such as Noodles, Pasta, Soup etc.

To wrap things up, our sweet tooth took a bite on the desserts, such as Cakes, Ice Cream, Ice Kacang etc.

After 3 long hours of senseless massacre, we decided to call it a day (or night) and headed home to nurse our swollen bellies. That was totally worth it!
