👎 Variety of dishes and types of cuisine on offer isn't as high as some other buffets.
Every once in a while we like to go stuff ourselves silly at a good Sunday Brunch. While visiting Hong Kong we decided to spend the afternoon having brunch at the Clipper Lounge, Mandarin Oriental Hong Kong (Next to Central MTR).
Compared to other 5-star hotel buffets, the variety of cuisines and dishes isn't the greatest, but the quality of the dishes on offer were generally very, very delicious. We were quite amazed in particular by the fat and juicy scallops on the sashimi bar, and the king crab legs, oysters, and abalone on the cold seafood table. We also thought the roast prime rib of beef was excellent. There was a huge variety of desserts, some of which were perhaps somewhat an acquired taste, but most of which were good.
Service was friendly, attentive, and prompt, and the dining area is gorgeously elegant. If you're the type of person who absolutely must have over a hundred different dishes at a buffet, then this place might not be for you, but otherwise we highly recommend it if you're hankering for a Sunday Brunch Buffet in the city!
