Came here on a Saturday for the champagne brunch! The restaurant wasn’t crowded at all, considering the current situation... We booked a table for 6, they gave us a long table at the back of the restaurant - still with a view of the harbour! Should have booked one of those private rooms - they look so nice! We were immediately served with mimosas as we sat down! Every dish on the menu would be served, except for those requiring add-ons. 5 of us didn’t drink champagne so opted for the $588 brunch
Every dish on the menu would be served, except for those requiring add-ons. 5 of us didn’t drink champagne so opted for the $588 brunch which included beer, wine, soft drinks and juice; the other person opted for the $688 which included Veuve Cliquot champagne! If you do drink champagne then this $688 is a very good price! Considering aqua usually charges $218 for a glass! The juice were good - I think some were freshly made but some were straight out of a carton, weirdly... My first glass of apple juice tasted really good and looked cloudy, but then the second glass onwards looked like and tasted like they were from Tree Top! Food was great! Bread with hummus dip was first served, followed by a cheese and cold cut platter! Was half full after these dishes I am honest. Sashimi platter looked and tasted very nice, the oysters were exceptionally fresh. I thought the lamb was a bit too overcooked for my taste, but the risotto too undercooked.. Pork goyza was normal, nothing too special about it. Shrimp tempura was amazing, crispy and delicious! So was the dessert platter in the end, with tiramisu, ice cream, panettone, macarons, chocolate cake, chocolate lava cake! We had a birthday celebration so requested the restaurant to write a message on the dessert platter.
I especially enjoyed the espresso martini, not so much the Bloody Mary - it had too much pepper in it! Of course the champagne was great, they kept being refilled and I think I drank at least 4 glasses! I would recommend this place for celebrations and occasions!
