The Fullerton Chocolate Buffet

The majestic Fullerton Hotel

Being such a dessert person, a trip to the Fullerton Chocolate buffet was inevitable. After pestering my family for about ... say a few weeks ... four agreed to accompany me. Mom, Guni , Letchu Uncle and Thanam.We all met at the lobby of the Fullerton and the ambience was incredible. The lighting was soft and inviting and everyone there was full of smiles. The architecture was Classis Greek with a bit of Modernism added to the equation. The columns were majestic and prepared you for the likewise gigantic interior. The hotel almost seemed like a big box with the ceiling reaching the roof.

I made reservations, so we were seated straightaway. As i walked towards my seat i could smell chocolate. It was everywhere. Mmmm imagine experiencing chocolate even without eating it... Ohhh.... From where we were seated i could see the circle where all the cakes were and a chocolate fountain that had chocolate flowing down.. Everything was divine...

The petite desserts

More petite desserts

I made countless trips to the centre because every cake was special. Every piece had its own unique flavouring. Some had coconut, some had chestnuts, others were paired with mandarin flavouring or peppermint. The excellent thing is that every single piece was decorated beautifully. Nothing looked ordinary at all.

Filling our plates with choclate cakes

I think this was third round

There was also mousse in cups and these were not that sweet. A slight hint of liqueur could be tasted... but trust me its really slight... G described it as a drop for each cup... heeheehee he's such a funny man

Chocolate Mousse with macerated cherries

There was also this particular cake that had layers of moist creamy chocolate. Oohhh la la…..

There is also a drink station, where you choose a chocolate and they melt it into some milk… Hot Chocolate… it was fun trying the different percentages of cocoa and tasting the hints of hazelnut and fruits and vanilla… But I found the drinks a bit milky and thin … practically the opposite of Italian hot chocolate which is thick .. almost like pudding….

We really enjoyed the whole experience… but I was shocked by the bill… it was S$260 plus for five of us… we were each charged $ 45 which is a bit on the dear side for me but G said we paid not only for the food but the service and the whole experience.. by the way the service was beyond excellent… our drinks were always topped up and cutlery always changed…. With a smile of course..
