The Summit Hotel, USJ Christmas Buffet Specials 2018

variety

It was a fun-filled day out with my family at The Summit hotel - Oceania Cafe as we enjoyed a Christmas buffet special this season 2018!

Sometimes it's good to just bring the family out to indulge in the festive seasons as we enjoy the food, environment and the friendly services especially towards Christmas day.

Their Christmas buffet in The Summit Hotel actually carries a variety of food and beverages for your selection. Each one differently cooked to suit your preference.

For me, I love western food and for my husband, he prefers the local Asian cuisines especially the rice with rendang and veggie. My kids are just happy to eat whatever we can grab for them; Of course first preference is the western cuisine.

The Summit Hotel features their Christmas buffet special Turkey and Roasted Beef, alongside with the seafood platter and variety of cakes to suit the occasion.

Turkey was good, not too tough as how we know turkeys have really tough meat. I was able to chew it easily without feeling too dry nor have a hard time to swallow. The tip to eating a turkey is to have it in small bits and yummy sauce dipping. Which they did provide 3 types of sauces for your choosing.

The roasted beef was pretty good too, it was medium done here making it not too hard to chew but not that easy too. In between, but I like this kind of texture because if it's a little bit more cooked, the meat will be slightly tougher.

The seafood was fresh and served chilled on a tray of ice. Makes you feel like you're in the icy cold winter on Christmas Eve (like in the movies because Malaysia has no winter nor snow).

And their cakes were an array of sight and wonder, with so many variety, if you're a cake lover you would probably want to check this place out.

The local food here to my surprise was a real pleasure to indulge in. Even my husband compliments that their Asian dishes had a very flavorful and fragrant scent to each dish.

My favourite is the rendang with fried rice. It was just perfect!

They also serve soup noodles if you like something hot and soupy.

The ABC here was very lightly sweetened because my husband didn't add condensed milk so it was more like a syrup ice shaving than an ABC per say.

But it was good, my kids love it because it was not sweet, tastes of the pure syrup in ice.

Overall it's a great place to come over with family and friends for gatherings as you get to enjoy their Christmas decorations and variety of buffet spread here at :

A SOAPFUL Initiative On Sustainable Development Goals by Sunway Group

United Nation

Sebrinah Yeo December 05, 2018 1

Today was a pleasant day as we were graced by the presence of Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Selangor, H.H Tengku Amir Shah Ibni Sultan Sharatuddin Idris Shah Alhaj, together with the children from PKAYDEM at Sunway Resort Hotel & Spa, Soapful event.

An event that is truly a blessing to a far greater and prosperous sustainable future for the country and for our younger generations.

The efforts shown in today's event, showcases a very inspiring and heartwarming focused direction for Sunway Group in adopting the goals (particularly SDG 2 and SDG 12) from the United Nations General Assembly 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development that includes 17 Sustainable Development Goals or SDG in short.

SDG 2 goals is on Zero Hunger, Sunway Hotels & Resorts' Zero Food Wastage programme is an on-going effort collaborating with Kechara Soup Kitchen Society where surplus from buffet dinners served at their hotels will be given to Kechara to help feed the homeless and urban poor in Malaysia. It is anticipated that the numbers served this year will be close to 18,000 individuals from the B40 groups. In other words, what would otherwise be wasted can mean so much to someone else. Definitely a true spirit of sincere heart that Sunway Group leads to explore into other projects that would benefit the environment and the community.

Today's launch marks their latest sustainable initiative called Soapful. In alignment with SDG 12 on Responsible Consumption and Production, Sunway Group looks into how they can help to reduce the use of resources, degradation and pollution along the whole life cycle, while increasing the quality of life. An initiative that encouraged General Managers of every Sunway Hotel that came together to discuss how they can collectively contribute to this goal and hence the idea of repurposing used soap bars were born. Sunway Group has infact managed to collect over 100kgs of leftover soaps from 3 of their hotels here in Sunway City since July this year and through Kinder Soaps stringent process, they were able to produce 1,000 repurposed soap bars.

The soap bar on the left is from the hotel, and the right is a worldwide known branded soap bar that has been chemically contaminated and left to see the amount of bacteria build-up overtime. However, after washing the layers off, it still looks clean and new inside. But it has to be reprocessed again through stringent methods that adhere's to safety and environmental standards.

These soap bars will then be given to homes, such as today, the first homes identified by SAY, Pertubuhan Kebajikan Anak Yatim Darul Ehsan Malaysia (PKAYDEM) was here with us today with a total of 43 children and young adults present here; Sunway Group is delighted to host them and these 1,000 soap bars will be given to them for their personal use and also to be sold as part of SAY's social enterprise programmes such as charity sales, community markets and other social platforms, in hope to cultivate meaningful business skills that will help break the cycle of poverty.

Today, the children from PKAYDEM were also taught a simple five step soap repurposing process, which they can perform on their own on the unprocessed soap bars that will be provided by Sunway Group for one year, before they move on to a new beneficiary selected by SAY. I love this initiative as it is indirectly guiding these children to lead a sincere life of repurposing leftover soaps, while enhancing their skillsets and teaching them to be responsible for our environment at the same time. After all, at the end of the day, no matter where ones background is from, the children today, is our future tomorrow.

With the quantity of leftover soaps that is targeted to be collected in 2019 from all Sunway Hotels & Resorts in Klang Valley, Ipoh and Penang, namely Sunway Resort Hotel & Spa, Sunway Pyramid Hotel, Sunway Clio Hotel, Sunway Putra Hotel, Sunway Velocity Hotel, Sunway Hotel Georgetown, Sunway Hotel Seberang Jaya and The Banjaran Hotsprings Retreat; They are expecting a total of 720kgs of leftover soaps which is equivalent to 7,200 bars of repurposed soap bars that will be produced from their efforts.

This is a true mark of real effort that Sunway Group has made into instilling awareness on these sustainable project so that the children and youth can secure their future as we drive towards a progressive nation that leaves no one behind.

It was also thanks to their long term collaborating partner on this project with Sunway Group, SAY (Selangor Youth Community) as they will continue to identify the subsequent beneficiaries of this project based on its capacity and to be included as part of their social enterprise programmes;

Ecolab that will facilitate the collection of used soap bars from the hotels, which will then be delivered to Kinder Soaps' processing lab to be repurposed into new bars of soap following stringent standard operating procedures that adheres to safety and environmental standards, as today they also gave a demonstration on proper hand washing procedures at their 1st station today;
