Crayfish cooked in eight different styles and crabs prepared in four different methods… Welcome to Plaza Brasserie’s Crazy For Crayfish and Crab Buffet – a teaser to its hugely popular annual Ultimate Crab Feast Buffet (which is happening later this June).
Known for its Best of Asia Buffet, Plaza Brasserie at PARKROYAL on Beach Road is introducing the Crazy For Crayfish and Crab Buffet for the very first time this year. In addition to its four signature crabs – chilli, black pepper, salted egg and curry – the restaurant is featuring crayfish cooked in eight different sauces. Sounds unreal, yes we know. You know this is one buffet you cannot skip.
Wok-fried Crayfish with Salted Egg, Crayfish with Chilli Crab Sauce, Rendang Crayfish, Thai Basil Crayfish, Honey Rock Sugar Crayfish, White Pepper Crayfish, Black Bean Sauce Crayfish and Hot Bean Sauce Crayfish. Good Lord, just take our money!
The Crazy For Crayfish and Crab Buffet is available at Plaza Brasserie from 3 to 26 April 2015. Be sure to ring up and make your reservation, because they are known to always be booked out real fast. The Ultimate Crab Feast Buffet last year was fully booked by the first week, and we wouldn’t expect anything less for this buffet. Crayfish and crab buffet? This is the best of both worlds!
[ Giveaway ] We are also giving away 3 pairs of weekday buffet dining vouchers for the Crazy For Crayfish and Crab Buffet. Leave a comment below, and share this post on your Facebook timeline to win. More details on the giveaway at the end of this post.
ROCK SUGAR AND HONEY CRAYFISH
You must be wondering how this combination tastes like, and we will tell you that it is one so well-balanced between sweet and savoury that you simply cannot stop at just one serving. We had thought it would be bizarre, but hey, if you are not going for it, we will help ourselves to more!
By the way, this sauce mixture is actually not new to Plaza Brasserie; you can find dishes such as chicken and prawn cooked in rock sugar and honey sauce from its Best of Asia Spread.
BLACK BEAN CRAYFISH
We are usually more familiar with Steamed Fish with Black Bean Sauce or Wok-fried Spare Ribs with Black Bean Sauce, but a Black Bean Crayfish? Now, that’s a first. With the right amount of seasoning, onion and black bean sauce, this is a dark horse contender to Plaza Brasserie’s best crayfish.
BLACK PEPPER CRAYFISH
Because black pepper is too good to just be used on crabs alone! We now have a crayfish version, and the poignant flavour is oh-so-divine. Thick, sweet flesh from the crustacean cooked in a copious amount of black pepper sauce, Plaza Brasserie’s version is a fine mix of spicy and salty.
RENDANG CRAYFISH
If you love rendang, you would love Plaza Brasserie’s Rendang Crayfish. Who would have thought! But yes, the popular Indonesian flavour is now an option for your crayfish. It is the Malay’s idea of beef curry, prepared with mainly chilli, ginger, coconut milk, lemongrass, turmeric, garlic and galangal. In other words, a brilliant combination of herbs and spices. Eat this with rice; ahhh… simple pleasures in life.
HOT BEAN SAUCE CRAYFISH
Chilli, fermented bean sauce and sesame oil. This is a variation to black bean, and it is not any less flavourful. Slightly spicier, with complementing ingredients for a more robust sauce without overpowering the sweetness of the crayfish. The Hot Bean Sauce Crayfish is an innovative creation and one that the Chef is so proud of.
CHILLI CRAYFISH
Well, well. Singaporeans love their chilli crab, so they will fall (hard) in love with this chilli crayfish too. Deep fried buns are available as an accompanying side; need we say more? Go ahead, help yourselves to a bigger portion. We won’t tell.
THAI BASIL CRAYFISH
Thai basil does not just stop at minced pork. The culinary team decided to wok-fry the crayfish with the ever-popular Thai basil, and you can be assured that what you’d get is a kickass spicy flavour that you cannot get enough of. We always love a good Thai basil dish; the more fragrant the basil leaves, the better!
SALTED EGG YOLK CRAYFISH
Our favourite among the eight flavours – but then again, we are biased towards anything that has salted egg yolk in it. Generously coated with Plaza Brasserie’s signature salted egg yolk sauce, this crayfish dish will be an instant hit with friends and family. Calories don’t count if there is Salted Egg Yolk Crayfish on the buffet counter, because it is impossible to say ‘no’ to this heavenly dish. Triple portions, please!
SALTED EGG YOLK CRAB
Of course, you can stuff your faces silly with the Salted Egg Yolk Crab too. Go ahead, we won’t judge.
BLACK PEPPER CRAB
So when we told you there was the Black Pepper Crayfish, you were already expecting a crab version, right? Your wish is granted. Indulge and eat as many black pepper crabs as you want! This will totally make your buffet money well-spent.
CHILLI CRAB
Singapore is synonymous with food, and when you talk about our local food, chilli crab always comes to mind. Yes, Plaza Brasserie does their chilli crab well and worthy of Singaporeans’ never-ending affection. Eat all you can with deep-fried mantou, did we hear?
CURRY CRAB
Damn, this Curry Crab was sooo good that we were momentarily speechless. But we are not surprised, because Plaza Brasserie is famed for their Indian food. In case you do not already know, they have dedicated chefs hailing from India; cannot get more authentic than this, can you? Now, all you really need is a bowl of fragrant white rice to fully savour the curry sauce.
BEST OF ASIA BUFFET SPREAD
If you still have room after feasting on crayfishes and crabs, the Best of Asia Spread has hot pot stations (on rotation) serving dishes such as Braised Oxtail, Kampong Chicken Curry with Bread Loaf, Lotus Root and Pork Belly Soup and Seafood Tom Yum Soup. The live stations (on rotation) feature Crepe with Durian Mousse, Penang Hokkien Char, Fried Carrot Cake, Mee Goreng and more.

ROCK SUGAR AND HONEY CRAYFISH, looking at the name of it, it is so appetizing already. The combination of 2 sweet things, and I’m wondering how they will match together with the crayfish to become one. Need to bring my mother together and have a taste of the lustful dish.

OMG! Crab crab crayfish crayfish crab crab crayfish crayfish…I wanna try all! First on the list will be ROCK SUGAR AND HONEY CRAYFISH and CHILLI CRAB!
Crayfish and crab rocks. Picture alone looks super yummy. I hope to win the voucher to celebrate my bday with my wife there this Apr. Thanks.
i want salted eggggggg crabsss hahaha
I would love to try the salted egg crab. My hubby and I love salted egg crabs but it has been ages since we had it. After the birth of our daughter, we didn’t have much time to date, let alone eat finger licking good crabs
Muahaha, I go nuts when i see crabs and crayfish! Would love to try the chilli, black pepper and salted egg yolk styles for both crayfish and crab. I think these 3 flavours truly defines how good a chef is because if you cant cook the local flavours well (and these are local favourites), how can you explore other flavours right? Hope to bring my whole family there to try!
I’ll definitely try the curry crab!! Ate all the chilli crab black papper crab salted egg crab, but the curry crab is definitely something new and unique to me! Looking forward to try!
omg! that salted egg yolk crab, would really want to try.
Curry Crab!! My favourite flavour and my favourite crab!!
Has always been a fan of salted egg yolk crabs even in the typical tze char stalls . Would be amazing if i could taste this dishes with my loved ones
I would LOVE to have the salted egg cray fish and crab BUT the hot bean sauce crayfish is calling out my name, so that’s the one I really want to try as it’s such a unique dish that I can’t get elsewhere!
I am a huge fan of seafood and would love to have a go at this buffet with my husband whom I just got married to, to celebrate our 5 month together! We would appreciate having this luxury as we have been tight on our budget being newly weds and this would be a great pampering session for us! =) We really hope we are able to go for this awesome buffet!
I would like to try the salted egg yolk crab and I would really really love to go to the buffet for my upcoming birthday! Have been looking for a good place to have crabs for so long!
Would like to try all with my hubby and kids. It will be a good experience for us to dine in together with a wide range of varieties .
I would like to try the Rock Sugar and Honey Crayfish at Plaza Brasserie! My boyfriend’s birthday falls on 12 April and he is a big fan of crab and crayfish. Coincidentally, we first met at Park Royal Hotel. So it would be awsome if we get chosen! Thanks.
Having tried crazy about crab @ Park Hotel, I’d gotta say this could be a real contender
