\"Quality
\nQuality Cafe advertises itself for “Taiwan Porridge Buffet” but it is so much more than just porridge. When we were there, it had 2 types of porridge–sweet potato and cuttlefish–and Taiwanese porridge condiments like salted egg, fermented beancurd (love!), pork floss, etc.<\/p>\n

\"Quality
\nBut there were also chili crab<\/strong>, braised duck<\/strong> (goes so well with porridge!), 5-spiced chicken<\/strong>, dory fish steamed with salted vegetables<\/strong>, mutton<\/strong>, prawns<\/strong>, sotong<\/strong>, fried kway tiao<\/strong>, chicken feet<\/strong> (!!!), curry chicken<\/strong>, popiah, etc.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Quality
\nThe food was generally prepared well. Usually for buffets, the meat items under constant heat will become tough and dry but at Quality Cafe, the meat retained a bouncy texture. We especially loved the sotong<\/strong>, cooked perfectly, and had a boink boink<\/em> without being rubbery.<\/p>\n

\"Quality
\nSome sauces were a little weak and there were a few misses but honestly, the buffet is only $18.80+!! <\/strong>Who cares about those 4 dishes that we didn’t like? So cheap, eat until si bei shiok<\/em>! My eating companion asked, “How does the restaurant earn money??”<\/p>\n

\"laksa\"
\nAs it is with buffets with good value, THIS IS WAR! RAWR! Grannies and grandpas were snatching food, which was a little comical. See the boy above? He cut my queue for the delicious laksa<\/strong>. HAHA. Quite funny, being bullied by a little boy.<\/p>\n

\"kueh\"
\nThis is a family<\/strong> place and a place for colleagues<\/strong> afterwork. Apparently, this buffet is quite popular. Two of our contributors have tried it before and we ran into two separate groups of colleagues dining here. Definitely value for money<\/strong>. Worth a visit now and then if you live nearby. Opens till 12.30am<\/strong>!<\/p>\n
