Tex Mex Buka Puasa Buffet at Frontera Jaya One

I wasn’t exactly sure what the difference is between Mexican and Tex-Mex so I turned to wikipedia which said “"Tex-Mex" (combination of Texan and Mexican) is a term describing a regional American cuisine that blends food products available in the United States and the culinary creations of Mexican-Americans influenced by Mexican cuisine.” Alright, bring on the tacos, meat, beans and cheese!

Anyway, one of my favourite places to eat Tex-Mex food is Frontera Sol Of Mexico in Jaya One, Petaling Jaya. I particularly like their Taco Tuesday promotions (all you can eat tacos for one price) and they are also known for their Margaritas (if you’re the drinking type).

Thus, I was quite pleased to be invited last Saturday to sample the Ramadhan Tex-Mex Buffet menu that will be ongoing from Monday, 24 July until 18 August.

As the flyer/menu on the left says, the Ramadhan buffet offers everyone a choice of 12 starters with one main course, 6 desserts and free flow ice lemon tea.

Now on to more food pics!

The “style” of this buffet is that you chose one main meal from the menu (there are 18 selections) while the starters and desserts are a buffet.

Starter Buffet

With the starters you get a combination of 12 of the following :

BBQ Chicken Wings, Taquitos de Pollo, soup of the day, 2 types of mini tacos, 2 types of mini tostadas (chips!), 2 types of bruschettas, rice (either mexican rice or cilantro & lime rice), potatoes (mashed or baked) and a Salad station with 2 types of dressing & 2 types of toppings and more.

Clockwise from top left : Mushroom bruschetta, chicken bruschetta, BBQ wings, Taquitos de Pollo and (I think) vege bruschetta.

Taquitos de Pollo is chicken/beef mixed with cheese and some stuff then rolled in a flour tortila and the whole thing is fried. Oh so fattening but oh sooo good. Wings were smothered in yummy BBQ sauce and bruschetta is well, mushroom/chicken on slices of bread with cheese on top.
