This restaurant deserves every star rating given to it. Today (as at the time of writing this) was the third time I have eaten at this restaurant, since claiming fame from the old Botanica Brasserie back in 2012. It is clear that Sheraton on the Park are clearly putting an abundance of effort into the presentation, service and food quality of this restaurant.
Find yourself in the foyer of this popular, luxury hotel, and head up the stairs to level 1. Then you're in food paradise for either lunch or dinner. To keep the whole experience exciting, this restaurant adopts a theme for specific times of the year. For example, right now (again, as at the time of writing this) they've adopted a "Christmas in July" theme. The buffet areas are decorated with gingerbread houses, and of course santa.
For starters, I arrived and sat near a window with impeccable views of gorgeous Hyde Park. I was given this experience as a gift to celebrate a recent university and life accomplishment, and my boyfriend came along with me, although he was held up with a client at work.
Drinks wise, I enjoyed a bottle of Santa Vittoria sparkling. Great attention to detail was paid. As the glasses were running on empty, the staff poured us some top ups. I also enjoyed two glasses on Moet and Chandon. The latter was a perfect accompaniment with my entrée - naturally some fresh seafood.
I've always (and recently re-confirmed) enjoyed their oysters and prawns. There was even a gluten free vinaigrette oyster, with a nice mellow flavour. All the props to wash ones hands afterwards were there.
The mains encompassed a real Christmas (hearty) roast theme. Saw some pork crackling, and it looked divine. I went for some fish, chicken, vegetables and pumpkin, together with some mussels. The cous cous looked amazing. My boyfriend devoured his mains, and even went back for seconds. Have never seen him so passionate about food, even though he appreciates fine dining as equally as I do.
Before dessert, I used my side dish to grab a couple more oysters and prawns. So glad I did. Perfection, freshness and quality without needing any sauces and lemon wedges to dazzle it up.
The desserts were also amazing. Loved the passionfruit cake, as well as a pavlova like wafer dish. Enjoyed the fruit truffles. There were even some beautiful mince pies available for the taking.
It is easy to fill yourself up at buffets, yet at Feast Restaurant at Sheraton on the Park, the experience is rather civilised with awesome ambience intertwined. You come here a bit hungry (advised), however you leave here feeling just right and not bloated. Anything you want, the staff will do as much as they can to go the extra mile for you.
Finishing off with a cafe latte (my man ordered the skinny latte) was an amazing way to finish off an amazing hour of lunch. Worth taking time away from the office and clinic for. Bliss. Heavenly bliss.
