What sets a restaurant buffet apart from a hotel one? Is it the interiors? The food selection and quality? The clientele? I don't know if this still applies, but back in the day, hotel dining had a more formal air to it. People would dress up in their sunday best for a hotel meal, whether it was an all you can eat buffet or a sit-down, plated affair.
*From an American standpoint, it's funny to think about the concept of a formal buffet, since buffet restaurants in the US are typically seen as the height of casual dining.*
But here in Philippine shores, there are some restaurant buffets that manage to channel the grandeur of a hotel ballroom in their aesthetics and the variety and quality of hotel food by offering plenty of high-value choices. And you can go ahead and add @The Place Deluxe Buffet in Ayala Malls Manila Bay to that list for having the look and the international cuisine to pass the vibe check.
Here's the grand buffet tour of their Seafood Night that happens on Fridays, and it includes lobsters, scallops, prawns, crabs... The works for a seafood buffet in Manila!
