Where is Rampanalgas? what are the prices? what to try?

[noshownogo]

Rampanalgas is up Toco side

[d spike]

Rampanalgas is after Salybia and before Cumana on the way to Toco. Anything Kay Marin cooks is worth the drive up there, the traffic nonsense in Valencia, a flat tyre and a couple of bad drives on the way...

[AbuStar]

good stuff

After looking for a buffet breakfast with full works i decided (after speaking with the mgmt) to visit Cascadia hotel this am. I was promised a large spread (potatoes, meats, fresh veggies/fruits, and omelet bar..basically the works! I get their only to be asked "you know how much the breakfast is right" didn't bother me that much, however what did bother me was how wrong their description was.

1) There was very little selection.
2) NO OMELET BAR! not even so much as scrambled eggs
3) Terrible service
4) After getting their at 8:30am I was basically left with scraps.

I spoke with the people at Hyatt and Hilton each of which offered a breakfast buffet Hyatt @ $158.50/person and Hilton @ 203/person and Kapok $107/Person. Cascadia charged me $120. Overall i'm not impressed and most likely will not return.

so my question would be where's the best breakfast buffet in trini?!

edit: i know i made this thread for best places to eat but i was so put off i thought this could help those who we're thinking of visiting.

[zeeshan66]

just had lunch at "Trini to D Bone" restaurant. I had bake chicken, macaroni salad, potato salad, which I paid $38 (as expected).

Food did NOT taste good. I got basically scraps of what was left. Would not recommend. Bad decision considering i was already in royal castle but the line was to long.

FINALLY BACK,

After being out of the country for the last 3 months i'm back and hungrier than ever haha.

I recently tried Jenny's (south) and was pretty disappointed. Won tons tasted stale, and their chicken low mein, a very simple dish had little to no taste. Good drinks poor service. Won't be going back anytime soon.

WHAT'S NEXT. Anything new open up in the last while???

jenny's south food has been pretty bad for a while now... donno wat happened...

[zeeshan66]

yepp tried it again with nothing good to report. Their prices are also stupid high

[pugboy]

look like you setting your hopes too high
i hear hyatt has a good sunday breakfast buffet, never been though
but a lot of the hilton crowd has switched to there

[Notorious Scullman]

Hilton had a good Breakfast buffet, especially for their Sunday Brunch.
Haven't been for a couple years.

Never been overly impressed with Hyatt's food.
Ambience/style/staff - 10
Food - 7

^ i went to ristorante garibaldi last sat - there were only 2 ppl there when we arrived and no one else came in after they left.
The restaurant itself was tiny and not really fancy - but the food was really good! I had the lamb which was almost perfectly done. The chef came out to talk to the customers and find out if they like the food and stuff.

Zeeshan - the best Bfast buffet is in Flambeau ( its in Marriott ) excellent food and a lot of variety!

After quite a few years I tried the Lighthouse last Saturday in Crew's Inn.

Service was OK, the rum punch was good. The food was a bit boring. I had the catch of the day, and it was bleh. Wifey had veges and calamari, the veges were tastelss and the calamari salty and rubbery. The best calamari I've had in a while has to be Bootleggers in Trincity.

As we on trincity, had to go to a wake in the area recently and stopped of at the italian restaurant opposite pennywise (somebody help me with the name nah), lemme tell allyuh,

THE SEAFOOD RISOTTO WAS EXCELLENT!!!!!! THE SERVICE WAS ALSO EXCELLENT!!!!!!!

This is despite it being a busy night.

Definitely going back dey.
