Sunway Hotel Food Marathon At Atrium Cafe

Have you ever tried a buffet which lasts 12 hours? Atrium Cafe of Pyramid Tower Hotel at Sunway Resort introduced the first 12-hour Marathon buffet which takes place every Sunday and public holiday from 11am to 11pm. How does it work? Well, diners are allowed to go in and out as many times as they wish and eat to their heart's content. Brunch, lunch, hi-tea, dinner or supper, it's your choice as once you're in, all these food are available to you throughout the day.

Atrium Cafe

Atrium Marathon Buffet is a feast of the finest Pan-Asian cuisines featuring some really good food. Since it is a 12 hour buffet, the dining experience can be coupled with Sunway Lagoon's fun outdoor activities, relaxation at the Mandara Spa, and shopping at Sunway Pyramid. Whenever you feel hungry, just head back in to Atrium Cafe to continue eating!

Atrium Cafe 12-Hour Marthon Food Buffet

A group of bloggers and friends were invited the other day to try this gastronomic adventure, and yours truly managed to hitch a ride onto this sweet adventure thanks to Elwyn. It was a one day event, where we already had our programmes lined up from 11am until 5pm, most of it involves eating. We kicked off the day by filling our stomach with the brunch buffet. Check out the photos of some of the food offered by Atrium Cafe 12 Hour Marathon Buffet.

Lots of good food, you must go over and check out the array of choices available to fully appreciate this.

Desserts for our sweet tooth.

The food was really good, and had lots of varieties with starters like smoked salmon, grilled chicken breast to soup such as roasted pumpkin soup and seafood tomyum soup. We managed to savor food from the Malay, Indian, Chinese and Western kitchens which was truly "yummy-tastic!" The menu changes as the day progressed, so no worries there about having the same food during brunch and supper. 

Throughout the day, we participated in 3 food challenges and 1 Go Cart experience at Extreme Park, Sunway Lagoon. I've never tried the go-cart over at Sunway Lagoon before, so naturally I was really excited that day. Check out the videos of the 3 food challenges that I participated in, my stomach had never felt such fullness before.

Food Challenge #1: Wanton-Eating Challenge

The pot of wantons

This was the challenge I lost by 2 pieces of wantons. Both the winner Jonathan and I had completed 4 bowls (5pcs of wanton per bowl) within 3 minutes, but for the unfinished bowl, i had 2 more pieces than him. It was great fun competing though!

Food Challenge #2: Sandwich-Eating Challenge

To make the sandwich with all these ingredients and get as many eaten within 3minutes

Me feeling rather happy for winning the Sandwich Eating Challenge.

This was a rather tough food challenge due to the size of the salmon. We were required to put a piece of each ingredients into our bread before munching it down. The highest number of sandwiches eaten within 3 minutes wins. I managed to down 7, my poor stomach. 

Food Challenge #3: Spicy Popiah-Eating Challenge

The contestants for the spicy popiah challenge.

I did not manage to get this challenge on video, but it was pretty quick as Benjamin showed us how to down 8 of these spicy popiah within 3 minutes to win this challenge. I suspected they added chili padi to the popiahs as it was really spicy!

At 3pm sharp, after our short complimentary 5minutes massage meant for Atrium Cafe buffet diners, and also the buffet lunch, the whole bunch of bloggers and friends headed off for some Go Cart action!
