What a breakfast buffet

"wow" was all I could say. The spread for the b'fast buffet at Grand Hyatt. Tones of stuff; even have enough vegetarian dishes for iron-wife - both Chinese and Western. In HKG or China or anywhere else, we just couldn't get enough vegetarian dishes for her. Taiwanese people are more vegetarians. So, the menu always have at least half contains vegetarian dishes.

The fruit bar, all freshly cut papayas, guava, water melon, cantaloupe. Guava, huge slices. I ate enough for Dave R. The eggs in the Western section, scrambled or omlette, no meat. The Chinese section, dim sums all over and then two types of congee. Tofu, preserved eggs, stir-fried green veggies, Taro steam cakes, mushroom stir-fried rice noodle. You named it had it all. Just could not have big enough of a stomach to sample all the food items placed in front of me. Smoke salmons, salads, breads, pastries. Yikes.

One weird thing though, the restaurant does not open here in this hotel until 630am. By the time we got down there, there was a line up waiting for the restaurant to be opened. Lots of business people staying here. So we all wanted to get one with the day. Funny. I would have thought it should open at 6am. O well. So this morning was a mad dash as soon as the door was opened. The staff though, handled the crowd quite well. Within minutes, no more line up. I guess they have get used to this every morning.
