What makes a good Sunday brunch? For me, it’s the ambience, food, music and wine. The most ideal brunch is to have it under a tree, facing the sea with a cold weather. Aiya, I think like that must go to Paris because we will only get cold weather when it rains. Lolol.

InterContinental Singapore introduces “The Art of Sundays” Champagne Brunch at their iconic Lobby Lounge, which fits my bill perfectly. There are classic brunch favourites, including 7 live cooking stations of premium pan-seared 365 days grain-fed US beef, freshly shucked Fine de Claire, Tasmanian and Fanny Bay oysters, foie gras, eggs en cocotte with caviar or “your way”, gourmet mini burgers and “pot-steamed” Australian mussels in sauce à la Mirepoix, alongside appetisers, succulent seafood, gourmet charcuteries, 12-types of artisanal cheeses and chef’s signature main courses.

Enjoying delicious food on a high ceiling magnificent lobby, with delightful music accompaniment and an endless flow of champagne… totally end my weekend on a perfect note.

Masterfully crafted by Executive Chef Eric Neo, the menu are Asian-infused specialities including Chilli Crab Linguine, handcrafted dim sum from their signature Cantonese restaurant Man Fu Yuan. We started with some tapas such as Beef Cheek Rendang on Rice Cracker, Homemade Seafood Otah Otah, Braised Itek Sio in Mantou, which was inspired by InterContinental Singapore’s Peranakan heritage.

Then, we had some crustacean on Ice: Boston lobsters, Alaskan King Crab, Tiger Prawns, Mussels and Scallops. They serve three kinds of oysters: Fine de Claire, Tasmanian and Fanny Bay. As usual, the boyfriend went crazy over the fresh oysters.

What I love most about this epicurean spread is, they have 7 live cooking stations! There is chilli crab linguine and lobster crab ravioli.

Sometimes, Chef Eric Neo will walk around to do the live stations. And whenever he is at that station, I will be queuing for my food there like a little fan girl. Haha! So at the eggs station, he prepares Eggs Benedict with Smoked Salmon and Hollandaise, Eggs En Cocotte with Caviar.
