Oscar’s at Conrad Centennial Singapore has recently revamped its Sunday brunch with new sections interspersed with old favorites for a special weekend experience. Certain sections have been expanded with others streamlined. There are also new stations to keep diners coming back. I was recently invited over to Oscar’s to check out the recharged brunch offerings.

There’s no dearth of Sunday brunches in Singapore, with just about every luxury hotel offering their own versions of the weekend ritual with their own set of defining features. Racines at the new Sofitel Singapore City Centre is the latest property to roll out a Sunday brunch with what it calls a “Magnifique Sunday Family Brunch.” This Accor property’s take throws in a couple of extras such as an activity lounge just for kids and a farewell souvenir gift but the most astounding thing about this Sunday brunch is probably the price. For every full paying guest, the second guest gets 50% off. Assuming you go for the champagne option which is S$168++, it works out to be approximately S$126++ per person after factoring the 2nd guest discount. I can’t think of any other Sunday brunch with champagne in a luxury hotel that is comparable in price so this may very well be the most affordable Sunday brunch in a luxury hotel in Singapore.

Melt Cafe at Mandarin Oriental Singapore has revamped its Sunday champagne brunch buffet to now feature some welcome additions such as a roving magician, enhanced Japanese section, imaginative desserts, a whole spring lamb and various healthy options to spruce up the weekend meal. The all-day dining restaurant is generally recognized to have one of the best Sunday brunches in Singapore and I was curious as to see how the weekend spread looked like over here. While I have been to this venue several times for its buffet, I had not yet tried their Sunday brunch until recently. I was invited over to check out the bountiful selection over a sunny Sunday afternoon.

If you have been to Melt Cafe before to dine in one of its popular buffets, you would notice that the new setup has caused certain food stations to be relocated. Where once, the Japanese and salad counters shared the same space; the Japanese section is now found at the far end of the buffet while the fruits and juices sections are placed together to promote a more holistic health offering. Here, you’ll find fresh orange, pineapple, cucumber juices and a special drink of the day.

Bayswater Kitchen in picturesque Keppel Island must be one of the most compelling places to have Sunday brunch in Singapore. With fine views of the picturesque marina and the striking “Reflections” condo in the distance, it’s just the place I would imagine enjoying my eggs benedict on a day that’s free from the thought of work.
Recently, I was invited down to Bayswater Kitchen as they launched their first ever brunch menu. The venue is part of The Prive Group and guests actually enter Bayswater Kitchen via the Prive restaurant in front of it.
The maritime theme is palpable from the moment you enter with different shades of blue contrasted against familiar motifs such as a giant octopus. This is done without being tacky at all – the look remains sharp as is the case with Prive restaurants in my experience.

Among all hotel restaurants serving buffet, none probably got me smitten in terms of ambiance as much as Ash & Elm at InterContinental Singapore. I’m always for natural lighting and it’s a joy to come here in the day with the morning and afternoon sunlight penetrating the ceiling. To be honest, I have had no prior experience with their buffet (aside from the ones I tried for breakfast during my staycation at InterContinental Singapore). While I do love the ala carte – I still have fond memories of the Iberico pork from the menu – I’ve heard pretty good things about the brunch offerings here. The buffet here is not about offering as much variety as possible. That is not the intention. Instead, what one gets is a well-curated assortment of items on the spread plus a decent amount of ala carte dishes to enjoy. I recently visited Ash & Elm to try out their revamped Sunday champagne brunch – one that incorporates a breakfast theme.

With lush vegetation and a setting that overlooks the sea, there is probably no better venue to hold a Sunday champagne brunch in Singapore than in the relaxing island of Sentosa. Kwee Zeen, the all-day dining restaurant at Sofitel Singapore Sentosa Resort, proudly offers a Sunday brunch that not only makes you forget about the hustle and bustle of city life, but is also family-friendly.
The Kwee Zeen brunch experience starts a bit later than most – at around 12:30pm. But it also ends later – at 3:30pm! If you are a seafood or meat lover, there are plenty to keep you wanting. The seafood variety here is truly impressive.

Mezza9 at Grand Hyatt Singapore sure knows how to throw a mean Sunday brunch. For this particular property, guests actually have two choices for that long leisurely weekend meal but the highlight is undoubtedly the Sunday champagne brunch at Mezza9.
Despite having tried about a dozen other Singapore hotel Sunday brunches so far, I must say I was impressed when I checked out Mezza9’s version! With nine dining stations, Mezza9 exudes a surprisingly intimate and personalised ambiance with dark wooden interiors, a humongous dining area and cheery staff members that are always happy to make small talk – a throwback to my staycation at Grand Hyatt Singapore when I used to see staff members at the club lounge chatting with guests on just about anything.

HEAT in Edsa Shangri-La is the latest hotel all-day dining restaurant to roll out a Sunday buffet brunch in what is increasingly becoming a popular Sunday activity for those living in Metro Manila.
Dubbed as a “Superbrunch,” the buffet combines the best of HEAT’s hugely popular Mad for Lobster Fridays and Mad for Wagyu Saturdays while still maintaining many of the restaurant’s most popular and evergreen dishes. Last week, I was invited by the hotel to check out the brunch complete with Grandi Vini wine pairing.
