Savour Sajian Puteri at Puteri Pacific JB


A treat fit for Princes and Princesses: this is what the Puteri Pacific Johor Baru has arranged for diners in their Sajian Puteri buffet at The Puteri Café this Ramadan.

The popular Puteri Lamb Kuzi is among the main
features in the Sajian Puteri buffet at Puteri Pacific JB
I’m at the preview of Sajian Puteri, the brainchild of the culinary teams led by Chef Zamri of The Puteri Pacific Hotel and Chef Zainuddin of Persada Johor International Convention Centre.

Besides enjoying more than 100 dishes in the best of traditional and international favourites in this buffet, diners can stand to win attractive prizes in a special lucky draw.

Curious about this attractive treat, I ask about how this works and am told that diners only need to submit their dining vouchers along with their names and contact details.

Make a date to Berbuka Puasa with Artistes
After Raya the results will be announced on social media and the lucky diners may win return flight tickets to domestic and Asean destinations, while its top prize is an Umrah Package.

On four specific dates, Centre for diners to enjoy their breaking-of-fast dinner while being entertained by the favourite Sajian Puteri will be served at the Persada Johor International Convention their artistes in Berbuka Puasa with Artistes.

As a special treat to break-fast with their favourite entertainer, diners can make a date with Hafiz Suip (May 7), Siti Nordiana (May 10), Liza Hanim (May 26) and Datuk Ramli Sarip (May 31).

In addition, diners can look forward to enjoying a Daily Must-Try so keep an eye out for this daily change at one particular stall to discover if it’s Chinese, Indian or other cuisine, served in a freshly cooked 15-cycle menu.

Among the featured items served from stalls in this buffet are the Puteri Kambing Kuzi (lamb), Gulai Tulang Rusuk Merah (beef), barbecued seafood and meats, Ayam Percik Salai (chicken) and Roti Kwali Terbalik or bread baked on overturned wok, served with Lamb Qeema.

The Lamb Kuzi is a whole lamb stuffed with fragrant basmati rice and roasted with the finest herbs and spices. To savour, I drizzle the rice and slices of lamb with a spot of Kuzi gravy, served from a dish nearby.

Chef Zamri is particularly proud of the beefy goodness of traditional brewed soups and stews like Gulai Tulang Rusuk Merah which is served warm from a giant pot or kawah.

The foyer outside The Puteri Café is lined with various stalls that serve a range of items like Mee Rebus, stir-fried Char Kway Teow or flat rice noodles, a range of Pasta, freshly-made Roti Canai and Murtabak, deep-fried snacks – including rolls of deep-fried durian – and the Daily Must-Try stall.

At the stall for Roti Kwali Terbalik, I watch as the chef’s gloved hand, painstakingly pats a circular patty of dough on a heated overturned wok to toast it.

When the white bread turns a shade of golden-brown, it is sliced in half before being served with a side of Lamb Qeema.

At the section dedicated to serving dates and a range of preserved fruits, I’m glad to see how each item is stored in covered but see-through containers for diners to conveniently help themselves to their favourite picks.

In the hot buffet where cooked food is served to savour with steamed white rice, Chef Zamri emphasized that all the items here are prepared strictly with seafood.

He then explains that these seafood dishes are designed to strike a balance with the meaty items in the menu.

A quick peek at the contents in the chaffing dishes reveal seafood dishes like Seabass steamed in soya sauce, Squid stuffed with cous cous, Prawns with petai sambal and kum hiong flavoured Mussels.

Nearby, an Appetizer section serves a range of traditional sambal sauces to go with a selection of ulam-ulam or fresh kampung greens as well as a choice of tossed kerabu or Malaysian salads. Several jars with air-tight lids are filled with a variety of crisps.

Mee Rebus is served from the Noodles stall
Another staple for the breaking-of-fast must be Bubur Lambuk, a traditional rice porridge.

At the Dessert section, Chef Zamri proudly tells me that all their local kuih, bubur and pengat or sweet broths, cakes, pastries, jellies and puddings, are all made in-house.

I can see tasty choices like kuih lapis, seri muka, bingka ubi, koleh kacang, kuih kaswi and so delighted to spy Lepat Pisang among them because this delicacy is a rare find these days!
