Armada Hotel PJ Sinar Ramadhan Buffet Dining

This Ramadhan, Armada Petaling Jaya is once again celebrating this joyous occasion of “Berbuka Puasa” right at Utara Coffee House. Themed “SINAR RAMADAN”,  their team of culinary masters is cooking up a gastronomic storm of mouth-watering traditional and international favourites. Guests can expect to indulge in only the most authentic method of preparation and ingredients this Ramadhan.

I used to dine at Armada Hotel since its opening till today as I usually go after my working hours from my office located nearby there. In fact, I grew up at SS2 in PJ since my baby days until 5 years old only I moved to Seri Petaling. My mom and family all stayed in PJ, grew up+studying and living nearby so I'm quite familiar with this area. I always 'Pou' having gathering, meeting and family get-together at Section 14, SS2 and PJ State all these years just for 'Jalan-jalan cari makan'. Thanks to Chin Yee when she invited me for this Ramadan Dinner as her plus one(I need not blog on this actually), I gladly came for it as to fulfil my missed-Malaysian taste of flavour after my long Europe trip there. Somewhere, somehow it helped to pay off my hunger pang for Malaysian good food after enjoying the buffet dinner.

With more than 100 dishes available, Executive Chef, Chew Teik Chye promises to showcase a wide selection of dishes that emphasizes on a variety of flavours and scent that will titillate your palate after a long day of fasting. Bring back the nostalgia of balik kampung when you start your gastronomic journey with an appetizing assortment of starters from Kerabus, Cincalok to, Lemang, Pasembor and Aneka Jeruk. Fire up your palate even more with the variety of classic Sambals, the ones that are rarely seen at urban diners.

Specially prepared for Kerabu fans, we have come up with several types of innovative creations, each tasting even better than the next. Indulge in some traditional Kerabu Mangga, Kerabu Sotong, Kerabu Kacang Botol and Kerabu Kaki Ayam. Not bad actually for a fussy lady like me. I will not say this is the best as I have tried many others over the years and it's not easy to please my fussy, choosy tastebud at all. 

For the mains, be sure to taste some of Armada’s Ramadhan signature classics such as Asam Laksa, Nasi Rempah Berlauk, Udang Klieo, Ketam Masak Gulai Siam, Ayam Golek, Pucuk Paku Masak Ikan Masin, Kari Kepala Ikan, Daging Masak Serai, Ikan Sembilang Panggang Berlada , Rendang Itik, Sup Tulang Rusuk, Nangka Muda Masak Lemak, Sotong Masak Kunyit dan Serai and all-time favorite Siput Sedut Masak Cili Padi.

Diners can also enjoy favorites prepared ala-minute like Apam Balik, Roasted Lamb, Assorted Satay, Murtabak, Lidah Sapi with Air Asam, Ayam Percik Panggang, Roti Durian and loads more at the many stalls set up around the Bakar-Bakar area.
