That's the concept behind Makan Makan at Edge Pan Pacific. The Saturday lunch buffet has gotten an upgrade with delicious new Peranakan dishes added to the offerings and like the dedicated <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/lifelove\/entertainment-lifelove\/foodie-alert-7-best-apps-foodporn-76979.html\">foodies<\/a> we are, we had to check out (and try out!) the food on offer.<\/p> <p>With seven food theatres showcasing a variety of freshly-made Asian and Pacific cuisines, (Malay, Chinese, Indian, Thai and Japanese) this is truly one of Singapore's more generous and diverse buffet spreads to date. We worked our way from<em> nasi lemak<\/em>, a coconut rice dish with nuts, anchovies and <em>sambal<\/em> to the world famous Malaysian<em> Hokkien mee<\/em>, which is essentially thick black noodles drowning in soy sauce and garnished with fresh, juicy prawns. Having relished that, we moved on to the satay - duck, beef, chicken and mutton were on offer and they were all tender, succulent and bursting with meaty flavour.<\/p> <p>Then, we decided to sample the new Peranakan dishes on offer. The not-to-be-missed culinary stars were the <em>Babi Pongteh,\u00a0<\/em>a juicy braised pork flavoured with fermented soya beans, <em>Ngo Hiang<\/em>, spiced lobster, prawns and chestnuts encased in the crispy skin of beancurd, as well as Traditional Peranakan Chicken Curry served with freshly-baked French Baguette. All three<a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/food\/hot-spots\/savour-2015-5-dishes-caught-fancy-84476.html\"> dishes<\/a> were the epitome of delicious as far as we're concerned.<\/p> <p>Our epicurean journey ended on a sweet note with a variety of local <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mariefranceasia.com\/food\/recipes-and-products\/dessert-delicious-5-white-chocolate-recipes-satisfy-sweet-tooth-87747.html\">desserts<\/a>, ranging from the savoury yam paste with gingko nuts to the refreshing <em>ice kacang,\u00a0<\/em>a local dessert of shaved ice mixed with red beans, corn and sweet coloured syrup. Durian lovers will be pleased at the wide selection of durian-based desserts such as durian puff, durian mousse cake and durian<em> pengat<\/em>. Our sweet tooth\u00a0certainly got more than it bargained for at this buffet!<\/p> <p>We emerged with full bellies and a clear new favourite in the buffet stakes.\u00a0Go through the gallery for a visual taste of the delicious food on offer and get ready to make your buffet bookings this Saturday, just in time for Labour Day weekend!<\/p> <p><em>Makan Makan is available every Saturday from 18 April 2015, 12:00 noon to 2:30pm. Prices range from SGD48++ (per adult inclusive of unlimited local beverages, coffee and tea) and SGD24++ (per child, below 12 years of age, inclusive of unlimited local beverages.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>
