Flavours of Indonesia, Sheraton Grand Hyde Park

Through an invitation from the General Consulate of The republic of Indonesia and Tourism Indonesia; I was hosted at a special launch which celebrated the Indonesia culture and flavours at the Sheraton Grand near Hyde Park. This is available 15th to 24th August at Sheraton Grand at Hyde Park.

You will see bright colours decorating the Feast Buffet and also musical acts to get you immersed into the Indonesian culture. There's also a noodle cart so you can access "street noodles".

The buffet choices with Indonesian dishes were quite mild in flavour but make for a good introduction if you are not familiar with Indonesian Flavours. Indonesian Flavours are typically quite spicy and complex in flavours with sweet, salty, sour and bitter tones. You will find sambal as a staple condiment in many Indonesian dishes.

You will see dishes like Nasi Goreng, Spicy Squid salad, Indonesian creamy curries and braised rendang chicken. I also enjoy other dishes including sushi, meats from the cavalry and roasted vegetables.

If you are inspired, you may also want to know more about the Ubud Food Festival in April 2020 and also check out all the Indonesian Restaurants in Sydney (check out the Indonesian Restaurant Association for some inspiration).

You will also get a sense of the general buffet with over 20 other international cuisines including seafood options - my favourites being the prawns and the oysters. There are also foods from other cuisines around the world which reflect Sydney's multiculturalism. There's also quite an extensive dessert range for you to choose from. I predict you will be tempted with many dessert options.

Summary: The feast buffet has a lot of variety including Indonesian-inspired dishes (15th to 24th August), seafood and a wide range of desserts
