SG 50 Celebration - Azur Restaurant @ Crowne Plaza Hotel National day celebration

I shall start with the dessert first as some are not easily available.
They create a counter which reflect what the olden days are selling & having.

Soya bean & bandung drink

Both taste good, especially the bandung better than what I taste at other area. It is also very fast finish.

My Fav Ting TIng candy!

 Kacang puteh - very rare to see this now

Goreng pisang -  Nice!

Sweet potatoes -  nice ! My son keep asking for this.

Muah Chee : miss this so much 

The cake & ang ku kueh taste very normal.

The rest are nice must remember to try.

The one wrap in banana leaf taste sweet & salty very special to me.

Other in the dessert include :  Steamed Kueh &  butter corn.

Modern dessert section : 

 Swiss roll 
This cake taste abit rough : 

Almond longan - this desset never taste wrong
Black forest -  taste normal
Ondeh ondeh peanut fillings - taste so so 
prefer gula melaka as fillings

 Durian cake -  taste nice I have a few servings :)

The main : Beside local they add a bit of western food : 
Black pepper seabass -  can give it a miss
macaroni- no bad
Turkey with rosemary sauce

Local delights: 
Indian rojak-not too bad , quite fresh
satay- Mutton, beef & chicken.  
           I only take chicken which is nice.The chicken very fast            taken up.

sweet sour chicken-  nice love the separate sauce
otak- not my type , very strong lemongrass taste & the texture is not
See the popiah , big portion!

 The popiah ingredients : 
Big portion & a lot of ingredients , see the sausage? 

Rojak -  quite a variety  

 Seafood :
Chilli crab - the sauce is nice , it would be good if they have deep fried mantou.
crayfish is nice with the sauce.
3type of cracker- all are quite fresh & nice . I cant help to take more servings although eating this at a buffet seem so stupid right waste stomach space.

 Hainanese Chicken Rice Balls-Although the chicken is BBQ  but it nice.

kway chap : I miss this as I forgot to take from the live station! I realised too late!

Personally feel the food & local dessert counter is very unusual.
Love the way they decorate. 
Their plan is to create “So Singaporean” scene, a Pasar Malam night market snack counter.It would be lovely if they decorate like a real Pasar Malam theme.

@ the kids playland
Simple ball room to keep the kids busy.
Not very crowded with children ...maybe we came late around 2pm as wanted my boy to rest after a meal before running here & there.
Although there are staffs around , still the parents are advise to look after the kids.

There are TV cartoon show : 

 Teddy bear around :

 Fruits

 Behind there is actually another buffet corner which i think it is too bright to take a clear pic...
