Eat Like Vikings Do

Most people would think that buffets are God's gift to people doesn't mind spending hours and hours eating.  I say, it's His gift to people like me who is takaw-mata. Jay and I complements each other when it comes to food. I tend to be impulsive on ordering foods that physically appeals to me and most of the time I regret it. So Jay has to consume those that I can no longer take. Well, not always of course. 

We've been eyeing this buffet restaurant for quite some time already so we thought Vday is the perfect time to finally give it a push. As you may already guessed, we were too late in making reservations. Vday is already fully booked. Also, it came to me that it's not really a good idea for me who has an early morning shift to go on a dinner buffet in the middle of the week. So Friday it was. They we're strict on time. When you make a reservation for 7pm, 7pm you have to be there or they will cancel your slot. This is to give chance to people in line who didn't make any reservation. Good thing we made it through Friday rush hour traffic!

Fellas, welcome to Vikings!

The interior is classy and detailed I must say. Their stations are designed as boats with helmets and armors you see on TV that vikings use. There are different kinds of shells beautifully arranged on every station to add an ocean feel to the place. You can also seat near windows overlooking Manila Bay, but I guess they are reserved to groups and families.

You can choose from different fruit juices, sodas and wines (I think). They even have unlimited beer for everyone!

If you are a fan of Japanese food you can get crazy here for they have a wide variety of sushi and sahimi. They even have a huge fresh tuna at the center of the Japanese cuisine station carved for everyone. Among those, I only had shrimp tempura so I can't tell you if their sushis and sashimis are good. I am not a fan, sorry. They are very well presented, though. 

I can ignore other stations but not this! They have wide variety of desserts--from kakanin, halo-halo to cakes, ice creams, panacottas and more. They also have fresh fruits you can choose from. I was sad, though because they didn't have fresh strawberries for chocolate fountain dipping. But oh well, all other compensated for it so I was still a happy girl.

Jay had an avocado ice cream and it was the best! Seriously. I told him I'll have it last because I was currently 

in a food coma then. But to my dismay, it was all gone when Jay came back to get me some. HUHUHUH. I just had a taste of it and then it was gone. The saddest part is that they do it from scratch, it's their own recipe so I can't find it somewhere else. Truly heartbreaking. Oh well. I have eaten too many good foods to feel bad.

Next time we promise to stay until the closing time--lol. If you are interested, you might wanna check out their site at http://vikings.ph/ for the menu and rate. I suggest you make a reservation because they really get full and you don't wanna wait outside in line. Remember, it's a buffet so people are going to make the most out of what they paid for, even staying up until the closing time. And as I have said earlier, they are strict on time, so be there before your reserved time so your slot won't be given to others. The foods are good but not great. But I guess that's no brainer when it comes to buffet restaurants. You might wanna check it out and tell me how you find it. 

Bisou, xx
