The BEST buffet for parents - Edge


Truly, you never know what you miss out until you experience it. Edge recently introduced a Kids Play Area and it is such a game changer. Just to caveat, my kids are pretty manageable in the grand spectrum so I always got the better deal. I felt I could really enjoy a meal. I have always been full of praise for Edge  (read my reviews here), but with the play area, the husband and I finally had some we-time and the food never tasted better

What's special about this play area is its own little dessert table that was catered to their height. The kids could scoop the candies themselves and also enjoy the chocolate fondue. Literally every child came out with "brown chocolatety lips". There was also a talented face paint artist who could draw whatever the kids want


Some tips on how to make your meal at Edge absolutely enjoyable, first of all, you need to request for the seats near the play area. You can either make sure they finish their meal first before releasing them into the play area or let them go "free-and-easy". I did the latter and it didn't work out too bad. They would binge themselves crazy but would come out patiently to enjoy the nutritious meals we scooped for them. 

The kids spent a good deal of time in the room, which was very child-friendly and sufficiently entertaining. For the olders kids, they would gather the cushions and watch a movie playing in the background. I just had to exert eye-power, instead of chasing them around. We spent a total of 3 hours at the buffet (unprecedented) and for the first time in my life, the husband and I could have proper conversation over a meal. 


Because it was such a relaxing meal, I was even in the mood to beautify my drinks - I took some fruits from the station to make mocktails. The state of the mind does make a difference, I was more observant of the deco, architecture and variety of food (which my husband told me was nothing new and has always been there.) Guess my vision was always too focused on parenting the kids, I have missed out "the finer things in life" literally!

After our delightful meal, I couldn't help but broadcast to my friends, coworkers and mummy communities how wonderful this place was. It is perfect for birthday celebrations or just an anniversary meal. The kids could tag along without stressing the other attendees. Everyone could just have a good time and enjoy the food. <3
