I thought lunch at Intercon from Monday to Thursday is already $298, and probably more on Friday.

It's closer to go from Sheraton. You go underground and follow the sign.

Agreed. If budget is no issue, then, definitely Inter-Continental. Otherwise, Kowloon Shangri-la is good. Verandah at Peninsula is also good but not a full buffet.

Avoid Sheraton and New World Renaissance. Both are sub-standard. Another OK one is Grand Standford at TST East. Nikko is acceptable but definitely not the best.

The one at Hunghom is not called Metropolitan. Do you mean Harbour Plaza Metropolis? It is quite good but not cheap.

Yes, you are right.

I had one person dined free, so I paid $248 + 2X$24.80 service charge = $298

$2,688. But make sure you ask which credit card you should use. I think HK bank cr card should be ok. Some credit cards, they convert the $2,688 into Pound Stg and then convert it back into HK and you end up paying $2,7XX like I did. But of course, I asked for a refund.

I only pay half at the Harbourside Mon-Thu and I have not gone back since my last visit in June.  This is how good this buffet is from my perspective.  I think Sun brunch is a different story but it's a lot more costly.

As you said, I don't like being so close to your fellow diners and this is one of the reasons I am not going back. You just can't walk from one end of the table to the other without hitting the table next to you.  I don't care much about the food but it is nothing to write home about.  They are no better or worse than Sheraton.

Price-wise, you cannot beat Patio at the Renaisance Kowloon Hotel, and for the view, you cannot beat Panorama also from the same hotel.  For dinner buffet, one should avoid at all cost as it's so noisy and crowded.

The hotel is just booming.  I called up this evening to book a table for tomorrow's dinner at the Steakhouse, and the best they can do is to put me on waiting list, or to come in at 9:30 pm.  The same probably can be said of the Harbourside.

At any given time at Celestial & many other hotel restaurants, I think at least half the customers are members of some sort, by paying an up front fee they don't have to pay full price.

From a customer's point of view, this is a rather screwed-up pricing method. After the membership discount, if you would add back the "pro-rata" membership fees to the amout, the net discount becomes much less. We are however, trapped to frequent their restaurants.

A marketing ploy playing on human psychology. I am trapped x 4!!

I haven't been to Kowloon's Dynasty, only been to the one in Wanchai North once or twice talking business, so really I don't remember what I ate, only have a neutral to negative impression.

So, kindly tell what is good there.

Or may be, we'd have one of our future wine dinners there ?

I went to New World's Patio recently. It was very poor - in terms of presentation, food quality and environment. I used to have very good impression of this place but since they keep on expanding to accommodate more diners, it has become uncomfortable and the food quality not same as before.

I doubt if there are so many dining members. I think we are just the miniorities. Whichever way I look at it, I am well well ahead. For Sheraton, I do about 50 meals at Unkai, 10 meals at Celestial court, and 20 meals at Oyster & Wine Bar. So my per unit cost is minimal. My other frequently used card is Parklane which I go to G&C 100X a year, Riva 12X. For the Steakhouse, I need to go there for entertainment when some guests are in town and it pays back in a couple of visits.

I am cutting down on these membership and just retain these 3 core ones. I once had seven at a time - Nikko, Marco Polo, Langham, Sheraton, Intercon, Excelsior & Marriott.

Yes, I had dinner buffet at Patio recently.

No change in comments. Poor food, bad lay-out, very cramped (I was bumped by next table and table across from us) - I was sitting at a table designed for 2 (overlooking the road and can see Sheraton) but they managed to squeeze 3 in, poor refill rate and bad dessert collection. However, service was good. They gave us a cake to take home but wasn't so nice either.

In case you want to be a smart arse, let's have a bet. There is 1 side of the PATIO where you can sit and overlook Salsbury Road/Chatham Road! That side was opened last time I went! It is a big restaurant so walk around before making unsubstantiated claims!

Can't agree with you more.

I just don't get it. If I spend $100 and ordera la carte that I like 100% and can be 100% full, why should I spend $200 on a buffet and force myself to eat something which I don't particularly like, and get 200% full.
