Reasons to Love the Kampachi Weekend Buffet

I am a fan of buffets; really I am.
My eyes sparkle at the glimpse of the colorful and multi-varied types of food presented in different styles, flavors and unique ways which are bound to set the taste buds go on a wild spree.
The thing about buffets is this; Variety.
We have choices, and lots of them in one single meal.

Of course, the old ode that one should exercise with caution when faced with so much food; in amount and varieties still stands.
It sounds like a heavenly treat to be surrounded by all these wonderful choices and the freedom to have anything you want (well, almost, depending on the theme).

Buffets are readily available everywhere although this is still a sinful treat to many, and of course, the need to splurge to enjoy these assortment of cuisines.
(Well, there are also good buffets at a good bargain, which I will probably blog about in the future).

One of my personal favorite buffets has to be the Equatorial Kampachi's Weekend Japanese Buffet.
Served on Saturdays and Sundays for lunches, and only Saturdays for dinners, this is one exciting buffet for those Japanese food crazed fans.

There is just so much to love about this Japanese buffet, and to begin with, I am already a fan of both Japanese food and also, Kampachi.
Kampachi by Equatorial is one of the hotel's pride in serving one of the finest quality of Japanese cuisine around the island of Penang, and its fame has also spread to the metropolitan city of Kuala Lumpur.

The weekend buffet brings together the delectable treats served from this fine kitchen; by their experienced and skilled chefs.
