Hong Kong buffets are a cut above the norm, but no matter how much we enjoy indulging in these all-you-can-eat spreads, we always worry about the food waste afterwards.
Five-star Tsim Sha Tsui hotel Kowloon Shangri-La is tackling this food-waste problem head-on by launching the city’s first-ever Buffet-Box in partnership with food-saving app CHOMP.
Purchased via CHOMP, diners can now pick up a Buffet-Box (HKD88) at the hotel’s awesome Café Kool buffet restaurant, with each box loaded up with quality Asian, Western, and Indian dishes. The box is available during the lunch (12:30–2:30PM) and dinner (6:30–9:30PM) sessions and can be ordered via the app 30 minutes before Café Kool opens (12PM and 6PM).
The Buffet-Box comes in four varieties – meat, seafood, vegetarian, or halal – and there are hot and cold options for each. The box itself is a biodegradable container made by locally founded low-impact packaging brand Sustainabl., making it all the more appealing to eco-conscious diners.
