café TOO

Leave it to the Island Shangri-La to have taken a common dining concept and turn it into a feasting extravaganza. Light and airy, with windows overlooking the lush greenery of Hong Kong Park, this restaurant features open kitchens and seven "stations" of food presentations spread throughout the room, thereby dispelling the assembly-line atmosphere of most buffets and giving it a theatrical touch. Browse the appetizer-and-salad table, a cold seafood counter with sushi, fresh oysters, crab, and other delights, a Chinese section with dim sum and main courses, Western hot entrees, noodles that are prepared to order and run the gamut from Chinese to Italian, and Asian dishes from Thai curries to Indian tandoori. But don't fill up, because the dessert table is the crowning glory. Although there's an a la carte menu, too, I can't imagine forgoing the buffet. Come here after shopping in Pacific Place or visiting the park's Flagstaff House Museum of Tea Ware.
