It had been a while since I last hung out around the Rendezvous Hotel area to realise that most of the establishments along the ground floor had a touch of Korean theme. And 90 Minutes offered a fuss-free Korean Tteokbokki Hotpot Buffet, with adult prices at $15.90 / S$23.90 / S$24.90 across various timings. Concession rates were also available for Children, Students and Seniors categories.

Once seated, the crew assisted with bringing the sauces to mix into the soup base, and it appeared that the Red Hot sauce (which ironically was a non-spicy sauce) was well-received by many and less likely to disappoint.

After that, it’s all up to me to decide what ingredients goes into the hotpot, so I had to queue up at the buffet line to pick the foods I would like. Other finger foods such as Korean Fried Chicken and the additional Crispy Cheese Corn Dog (S$4.50) were also available to complement the meal. On hindsight, it could be a pretty anxious affair, because the queue might be long and that would eat into the dining period.

The round of Cheese Ring (S$9.90) around the hotpot was a nice to have, but the heat was not meant to last, so it could be done without. But do remember to pick up some Kimchi from the buffet bar to add into the fried rice at the end of the meal, just to give the carbs extra flavour.

And a tip shared by the staff regarding the free-flow soft drinks, to mix JusCool Sparkling Peach with Kickapoo Joy Juice for a pleasant surprise.

Given the pricing and the quality of food, there was seriously little to complain about, but the best experience would usually happen when the restaurant was not operating at full capacity.
