Once again, another F&B establishment has bitten the dust. 

International buffet restaurant Buffet Town has quietly called it quits after being in Singapore's F&B scene for around 11 years. 

While no official announcement was made on their social media pages, its website confirms the closure.

The restaurant, located at Raffles Place, was affected by the various Covid-19 restrictions and had to temporarily close multiple times.

Dellen Soh, the chairman and CEO of Minor Food Singapore, which owned and operated Buffet Town, told CNA last August that due to the pandemic, manpower costs have increased by up to 30 per cent as the company had to hire more employees to cope with the dynamic restrictions.

"We have to serve tables dish by dish so we need an army of service staff nowadays who just waiting for (customers) to pick the order on the iPad, and once the order comes in, we have to serve it — even if it’s just one cup of coffee."
