Finally!!! I managed to try the Sunday Brunch at St Regis.


I have heard ravings about it and I just have to try it. 
This is my third brunch to date.

To add on the the Christmas mood, there's carolling too. 



The restaurant - Brasserie Les Saveurs



Table setting



The Sunday Champagne Brunch at St Regis starts from 12pm to 3pm. 


The pricing of the brunch is as follows:


SGD 170 ++ per person (with free flow of Perrier Jouet Grand Brut champagne, includes wines, cocktails and non alcoholic drinks)


SGD 138 ++ per person (includes non alcoholic drinks only, such as soft drinks and juices)


SGD 98 ++ for children


Please note that bottled sparking and still water are not included in the price. 



The lychee martini is quite diluted. 
Will take the champagne anytime. 
 


Let's begin with a tour of the buffet.


There are three types of French oysters served, namely Gillardeau, Tsarskaya and Fine de Claire. 

Tried one of each.. Yummy.. 
I love the sweetness of the Fine de Claire oysters. 
They even have a small bottle of Tabasco sauce for your easy usage. 

Sashimi, Crabs, Prawns etc




There are also salads, cold dishes etc. 
 

One of my favorite is the parma ham, on top of melon jelly. 



 


The most extensive ham selections.. Tried a few of them..
 
This is from the leg at the far right... 
 
There is also a wide variety of bread.. 



That complements very well with butter

St Regis - Actual Lunch

Following my earlier post on tasting at St Regis (Dinner Tasting @ St Regis), the below pictures show the actual dishes served at my friend's wedding:

The shrimp ball has been replaced with scallops
Soup remains unchanged. But, it seems to have more ingredients than the tasting...
The abalone slice has been replace with a whole abalone

The portion served is bigger than the tasting session. 



My Ramblings...
Yummy!
They certainly aspire to serve better food than the food tasting.
