I've tried the latter and can vouch for the fact that it’s juicy and smoky enough to make even carnivores forget about meat.

Can’t decide on a cuisine? Go for a sumptuous intercontinental buffet at Rise, Marina Bay Sands, to ensure your every craving will be satisfied this Valentine’s Day 2024. You might be thinking I have it wrong, because how can a buffet at Marina Bay Sands be under $100 per pax? The secret is to go for lunch ($72++/pax) instead of dinner ($148++/pax)!
Rise's Valentine’s Day 2024 buffet menu features everything from beef wellington and whole baked salmon to lobster eggs benedict and eggplant parmigiana charred broccolini. Looking at their menu, I'm most excited for their burrata corner that will entice even the most lactose-intolerant of individuals (such as myself).
And that's only the Western selections! Asian classics like black pepper crab, murgh tikka masala, and slow-braised wagyu beef cheek rendang prevail. Don't even get me started on the pastries, cakes, trifles, pralines and macarons they have for dessert.
