with the colleagues
Samba is a Peruvian restaurant. Located in the BGC Shangri-La.
Other dining establishments at the BGC Shangri-La:
- Raging Bull Chophouse & Bar (8.085 Darling Downs Wagyu MS 5+ Grass-Raised, Grain-Finished Ribeye Steak) – mediocre food, way overpriced
- High Street Market Café (8.053 Seafood, 8.036 Lobster, Meh) – okay, as far as buffets go
- Canton Road (8.042 Mingnan Five-Spice Marinated Pork Belly…) – expertly crafted dishes, though a bit overcomplicated and way overpriced
Ceviche Máncora (2.5)
Ceviche Limeño (2.5)
Anticucho de Pulpo (2.5)
Arroz con Mariscos (3.5)
Anticucho de Camarón (2.5)
The highlight was the prawns and quinoa – creamy parmesan risotto base, with grilled shrimp and calamari rings, quinoa for pop, feta for tang, arugula for spice. Sophisticated and fun.
Across the board, the food was great. Will definitely be back.
