Tried the breakfast buffet while staying at the Crowne Plaza hotel.The menu is elaborate with options for vegetarians as well as vegans available.
Can’t eat even half of the light sandwich. It’s for 2 people😂 cost 24 dollars. Steak for my husband was nicely cooked as well, with young broccoli
Managed to book last minute for Xmas dinner. Was lovely! Very attentive, friendly staff. Ambiance was lovely!! Food was amazing! Good value for xmas. 3 course meal for $62 each. Servings were generous especially the mains! The only negative was the air con was a bit cold but everything else was lovely!! Would return and recommend!
We had the buffet breakfast every morning. Very popular. Always crowded at breakfast. I was surprised they had chia seeds, dried fruits and other healthy foods. The omelette chef was also very obliging. This was in addition to the scrambled eggs. Usual suspects such as bacon and sausages were present. There was a barista for the morning buffet. Staff were friendly and helpful but busy and sometimes overworked at the rush periods. Worth a visit if you are staying at the hotel.
With the Truffle Season upon us, the only sensible thing to do was to travel to Canberra and see how these amazing balls of black gold grow. But not before demolishing a truffle filled dinner first. This was conveniently located at Red Salt in the Crowne Plaza Canberra.
Redsalt Restaurant is inside the Crown Plaza hotel and is great for breakfast buffet but is expensive. They have a great selection of meats, cheese, granola, fruit 🍉, stewed tomatoes 🍅 and mushrooms 🍄, bacon 🥓, sausage, ham, eggs, along with coffee, tea, and juice.
since we were staying in the crowne plaza, we decided on dinner at redsalt since most restaurants are a 15min walk away. it seemed that the majority of staff working were new or being trained which made for some small mistakes but nothing problematic. staff from the bar came over and took our drink orders as it was not too busy, which was a bonus. we began with the sourdough starter which was delicious, for mains we had the humpty doo barramundi and the braised pork belly. the barramundi was delicious, it had crispy skin and was moist but flaky. the pork belly was tender and well seasoned, and the sides were well suited to the dish. we wished we had room for dessert, but alas the delicious food and lovely cocktails left us very full. overall a good experience.
After dining here tonight, I can say I wasn't disappointed. Our waiter was attentive but not overwhelming, we definitely didn't feel pestered. Entre (roasted pumpkin rocket salad) was delivered promptly after ordering and tasted excellent. Mains were delicious and beverage service could not be faulted. Wouldn't hesitate to dine again should the occasion arise.
The kitchen is open until 2200h on Friday nights. All floor staff are warm and accommodating. Coffee is good, mostly because it tastes like coffee. Dinner dishes are great. The salmon and chirizo salad entrée is my current favourite.
