[@TheMamuchos]

Oh my god look at all that seafood!! I would be there every day!

[@JohnandMalie]

The BEST part of the buffet and so fresh 👌

[@theraff27]

Buffets in Asia are the best!! Adding this to the list for HK.

[@JohnandMalie]

Highly recommend The Market. Think you’ll enjoy it man if you have time for it 😀 Thanks for dropping by!

[@TheMamuchos]

Black truffle is one of my absolute favorites!!

[@JohnandMalie]

Truffle makes everything taste better, even desserts! 😋

[@TheMamuchos]

John and Malie totally agree

[@AaronandClaire]

Haha If I go to buffet, I will fill my belly with expensive dish first like Malie! Good idea! 😊😆😋

[@JohnandMalie]

Aaron & Claire's Korea haha definitely wanted to get my money’s worth 😂 👌🏻 - Malie

[@feedmeimei]

Omg I would be all about that sashimi station...

OMG...All you can eat DURIAN buffet?? Ok...noted...ICON Hotel..Ok...haha! ^^ Sydney needs to have one like this! hahaha

[@JohnandMalie]

Awesome! Do you guys all like Durian too?? 😆Best reason to check this buffet out! Nothing in Sydney even compares to the buffets in Asia man lol

[@AnSEpisodes]

@@JohnandMalie We both love durian! ^^

[@PogiboyProductions]

Watch out for those buffets! Even though they are all you can eat.. it can sneak up on you and next thing you know you're full lol... shrimp and ribeye looks delicious!

[@JohnandMalie]

Pogiboy Productions haha yeah for sure, we’ve learnt certain strategies for eating at a buffet. For one, don’t fill up on carbs first; eat the expensive foods and protein first! 👌🏻 and we’re lucky we can eat a lot, so we definitely get our value. 😅

[@PogiboyProductions]

@@JohnandMalie haha good tips!

[@FoodandFootprints]

Wow a chef from Singapore just for the laksa - awesome!

[@JohnandMalie]

Yeh! They also had a guy flown out from India to do their Indian Cuisines and a Malaysian Chef to run and come up with the Durian dessert creations

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

Oh guys! This buffet looks pretty awesome! Many of the buffets out there lack quality and freshness of the dishes. This one looks very good! And I can tell by the faces you make when eating those dishes! 😉😉

[@JohnandMalie]

Hahaha we had to express our inner emotions 🤣 even though it may look like we’re having a mini seizure lol We know exactly what you mean about many buffets lacking quality and freshness. The Market definitely is not lacking in that area 🙂

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

@@JohnandMalie hahaha a seizure! 😂

Thanks for dropping by David! Where’s the best buffet in Melbourne?? 😋

[@CommunityToursAustralia]

@@JohnandMalie the conservatory in Melbourne crown Casino check the website ..but we have hundreds

[@JohnandMalie]

Thanks for the recommendation! Will keep it in mind. The ones in Sydney so far have been sub-par to the ones we’ve had in Asia

[@CommunityToursAustralia]

@@JohnandMalie many here in Melbourne it's been very popular

[@FoodandFootprints]

Wow lofty praise if that is one of the best char siu you had in HK!

[@JohnandMalie]

Oh man it was great! A lot of care and attention and the glaze finish was 👌 For something that came out of a buffet, we could not falter it

[@daniayoung784]

i think john dishes choices were so delicious but when we think we find that Malie has right we must try that expensive ones cause it was so strange and bizzare ones! it worth!!

[@JohnandMalie]

Haha thanks for watching Dania! We had to make sure it made our moneys worth 🙂 it was an amazing buffet!

[@billchang4841]

you too can eat a lot omg 👍👍👍🥰😋😋😋

[@JohnandMalie]

It’s what makes us happy 😂

[@nickandhelmi]

Crab meat w caviar what!!!! 😱😱😱 give it to meeee nowwww

[@JohnandMalie]

Oh you would have enjoyed that very much! This was our first time having actual caviar. Do you guys like caviar?

[@FoodandFootprints]

Never would’ve thought to check out a buffet in Hong Kong

[@JohnandMalie]

We heard so much about this place from friends so we has to check this place out. We were particularly drawn to the Durian buffet lmao

[@nickandhelmi]

Glistening the charsiew - crazy i see the burnt charcoal-ly texture on the side oh my that glaze of tenderness!!! Usually buffet is terrible! This looks like something ill hit up hard

[@JohnandMalie]

Hands down best buffet we’ve been to 🙌 When you guys hit up HK in the future, consider hitting this joint up!

[@arwenmegan]

I’m with you, John, lobster and seafood et al is where i would be for value.

[@JohnandMalie]

Haha yes! Had a few kg of lobster and crab so I think we got our moneys worth 😂 Thanks for watching Jason!

[@TheHungryBlackPanda]

The fact there truffle in this buffet... Oh man i bet this is super high end

[@JohnandMalie]

Top quality ingredients and huge selection of food. It was pretty good man and didn’t completely break the bank 🤣 728HKD so that came out to be about $92USD for dinner on a weekend for the good stuff

[@vinaagbisit9588]

Im hungry my god i was shock theyre is lobster and durian. How much per head in hk dollar? And what time will close for dinner?does need to book theyre first? Thanks in advance

[@JohnandMalie]

Hi Vina! Price will depend whether it is weekday/weeknight. We paid $728HK I believe. Pricey, but easily one of the top buffet we have been to. We enjoyed it much more than the Bacchanal in Las Vegas! Dinner closes at 10pm and it is probably a good idea to book in advanced 🙂 Hope this helps! For the price you pay, we think its worth the experience

[@febefionna9701]

Can you give me information about price Buffett in hotel icon

[@Lil_Angry_Bitch]

So on a weekday, the buffet price for one adult is $678 HKD per person, that is the equivalent to $86.50 USD per person. Not a cheap buffet but probably worth the high price.

[@JohnandMalie]

Yep! We definitely thought with the quality of food and food selection, that price point was well worth it 👍

[@PeterandYen]

😂😂😂 all you can eat durian dessert that's a bit extreme. I'm totally with you on the seafood being the best section for buffet. The lobsters n baby crayfish looked incredible. But y'all didn't talk so much about it not sure how good it was compared to the chicken rice which John seemed to love 😁❤️

[@JohnandMalie]

Peter and Yen All the seafood was so fresh 👌🏻 haha yeah we were limited on time because we wanted to eat as much as we can in 2 hours to get the most value! 😂 So didn’t have time to talk about everything.

[@JohnandMalie]

Peter and Yen But all the food was on point, everything was delicious; even all the Durian desserts hahaha 😋

[@TheMamuchos]

Even sashimi? That is probably the best buffet ever

[@JohnandMalie]

The sashimi was great - we had many plates haha the scallops were the stand out. Huge, plump and had good mouthfeel to it 😋

[@TheMamuchos]

What is that meat at the beginning? Pork?

[@TheMamuchos]

Oh yes it’s the pork that the chef cut, looks freaking delicious!!

[@JohnandMalie]

Haha yes it’s Chinese BBQ pork with added syrup on top 🤤

[@KitLendzVlog]
