V Day 2012

Some may find it corny or baduy to celebrate Valentines Day, but for me, I always look forward to Valentine's.

Last night, a supposed to be dinner for two (Me and hubby) ended up as a family dinner hehehe. We decided to bring our daughters with us. As always, it was difficult to dine with a 3 year old and a 10 month old, but nonetheless, it was a happy experience for us.
It was our first time to dine at Holiday Inn Izdihar, Riyadh. They have seafood buffet every Tuesday (West Wing) and International Buffet (East Wing). We had the International Buffet because hubby doesn't eat ANY kind of seafood's :-(

We were early, around 15 minuted before 7pm. They were still making last minute arrangements on the buffet tables. But when we  were asked to start, I was a little bit disappointed with the soup. Clear soup for a five star hotel? It was like broth with onion leeks???? WTH? and tomato soup...both are cold!
The main course were all ok as well as the desserts. They have the usual Hummus, Muttabal & Tabouleh
The interiors were so and so. It doesn't really look like a 5 star hotel in house restaurant. *sad*
So, here are some of the pix:

Dessert. It was all good!

Where to dinenext year? I think I would go back to Hotel Intercon. Their buffet is way better than here.
