This time we reviewed Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara Buffet or so-called Cést La Vie Sunday Brunch. Let's check if it is our new number one Kuala Lumpur's luxury buffet.

The Ambiance at The Kwee Zeen Restaurant

Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara Buffet is served at their chic Kwee Zeen Restaurant. We love the playful details like a black metal shelving, a few large spotlights here and there, and removable leather sofa covers by the big tables.

Kwee Zeen Restaurant is a nonchalant place we felt good at.

All of the above and more keep the spacious Kwee Zeen Restaurant a casual place you feel good at. Also, the spacious contemporary design keeps everybody moving freely. Without a doubt, you’ll easily navigate around the self-service buffet table, desserts aisle, and find a way to the secluded cheese zone effortlessly.

This decoration reminded us of lovely times we had at our afternoon tea at the Le Bar.

Playful elements keep the atmosphere relaxing.

All-day dining at Kwee Zeen for people with insatiable appetite starts with morning buffet, followed by the lunch buffet and ends with a dinner buffet. In case you miss the all-you-can-eat or just aren’t into self-service, you can order from the Kwee Zeen Ala Card Menu.

Gluten-free corner with bread, cake, cookies and panna cotta. Great idea!

The menu lists pan-Asian and western classics with desserts and breakfast sections. Worth extra mention is their De-Light part in the Kwee Zeen menu. As the name De-Light indicates, the dishes are healthy and have listed their calorie value. Our meal to go is their luxurious Cést La Vie Sunday Brunch.

Even though the Petronas towers aren't anywhere near, that doesn't mean they are out of reach.

Our time at the Sofitel Kuala Lumpur was just right for a brunch buffet known as the Cést La Vie Sunday Brunch at Kwee Zeen Restaurant. In short, we can say it was full of thoughtfully prepared dishes that cover all possible cravings looking for Asian and Western tastes, French in particular.

An abundant display of desserts at the Sofitel Kuala Lumpur brunch caters to international taste.

The first table we circled around was the one with an abundant collection of cold dishes, including five different seafood on ice and numerous vegetable deals. If you think salads are boring, think again because at the Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara you can spice things up effortlessly. Go wild, create unique dishes bite to bite.

Fresh seafood on the ice included crabs, clams, prawns, and oysters.

Sea Time

There is no need to point your appetite just into the oysters and crabs. Meet their neighbors and take advantage of tuning already tasty dishes to your taste. Why wouldn’t you want to season succulent prawn guacamole with roasted green asparagus?

We must praise the staff for keeping Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara Buffet well organized from start to finish.

Go crazy and make a bite of Caprese salad and cold cuts. In case you want to start the feast with something warm, you can turn around and have some soup. We can confirm that both roasted pumpkin and double-boiled old cucumber soup were just wonderful.

Brunch at the Sofitel Kuala Lumpur Damansara includes soft beverages, beer, and wine. However, not the bubbles, but that didn't stop us.

In the middle of the Kwee Zeen Sofitel KL buffet cheese section, you’ll also find nuts and dried fruit with grissini. In addition to that, the bread pantry holds everything from sourdough to multigrain loaves, various buns, baguette and gluten-free bread. Don’t miss the different toppings here; we especially liked the black olive tapenade.

The in-house bakery did an outstanding job with so many different bread varieties, including gluten-free and sourdough.

Even though the sweet finish at the Sofitel Damansara restaurant was ruled by western sweets also the local classics weren’t missing. If by any chance, you can’t be tempted by cakes and tarts, you can still dip fruit in the chocolate fountain and stick marshmallow into it.

Before you do that, we suggest you try some crème brulee, tiramisu and chocolate cake. In case you aim for the lighter treats you can combine fruit jelly with fresh tropical fruit.
