Was actually very sick yesterday morning but since it was Ah Boon's birthday decide to come to work to have lunch with him. Me and my boss was looking thru the list of restaurant around of office and stop on this restaurant call Jing, located at One Fullerton. I’d not been to Jing before and was curious to check it out since it actually offer a buffet lunch.

When we reach we are pretty impress by the setting. Very tradition chinese restaurant but have a nice wine counter for those who like to have their meal with wine. But was quite disappointed by the fact that the buffet lunch was actually for weekends (not stated on their website) so we ended up going for the set lunches instead.

While waiting for our Set Lunch to be served, we nibbled on toufu cubes with green/red pepper and talk about how nice the restaurant ambience is. It was packed during lunch on a weekday as most of the clientele seemed to be working close by but tables are still readily available.

We start off by having Dim Sum as starter and thou I dun really like prawns, I must say their dim sum is pretty nice and the prawn was sweet.

Dim Sum!!!

Something which I dun like was the way the waitresses serve the food. The seem to come in all directions and they actually serve 2 persons at a time while we actually have 4 persons. Something I believe Jing can improve on.

Next is a soup! One word to describe it and that is "Super"!

Power packed soup. More mushrooms would be better :)

Next in line is garlic steam fish. The portion was quite generous and it was very nice. With more garlic would make it even better. I kinda complain here again cos when my fish was served, the garlic  actually fall to the side of the side while my friends one were served much properly with the garlic still on the top of the fish.

If the serving can be improve it would be great

After fish we have fried rice and to me that is the most normal dish so far. Not great and quite normal. Quality wise not something I would expect from Jing class of restaurant. Luckily with the chilli sauce I manage to finish it.

Normal fried rice... Nothing special but the chilli sauce is good with the rice

Finally dessert! A local desert but served in a rather exclusive manner. I though the middle was ice cream but it turn out to be coconut milk. Usually this dessert we will have it warm but having it cold was a nice and refreshing experience.

Nice, cool and refreshing dessert and a local feel

The lunch cost about S$45 per person with two pluses. Not bad and will go back again to try their buffet lunch on weekends.
