Epicurean Kentuckian: Singapore White Rice Noodles, Seafood 2013-10-15 - Trays Garden, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. Peter Cheng's Tray's Garden Chinese buffet is serving an excellent Chinese buffet. I went on the recommendation of food critic Sam Avery. Tray's is an all-you-can eat affair, but this trip was enough at the lunch meal Tuesday, October 15, 2013, with Singapore White Rice noodles, peeled shrimp, mussels baked in cheese, and flaky white fish celery/onion/carrot broth. The noodles/spaghetti dish sometimes has curry, as above, sometimes it's pure white, depending on the chef. The color above confesses the curry content. Really good. - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
