It's my best friends's birthday and we started the day with Zuma's brunch. Initially I decided to go without alcohol, but as I stepped down the spiral stairs, I was immediately offered a glass of Bellini. How evil, so I have no choice but to compromise and had their wine brunch! I had never been Zuma for food, I have only been to their bar so I was kind of surprised by its nice dinning settings beneath, particularly the al fresco area. Both the indoor and outdoor furnishing are impressive, grand

Same as many other restaurant's brunch, Zuma brunch starts with a buffet starter. The choice range was vast, all of them are Japanese dishes (since Zuma is a Japanese restaurant.) the dishes platting was nice, many were meticulously done. The starters were generally nice.

Smoked Salmon
I am not a big fan of salmon, but this smoked salmon with roe were pretty nice!

Clams
I love this dish! The broth was savoury and creamy, I cleared the broth immediately. The clams were rather small, but was sweet.

Baby Asparagus
Zuma's aparagus was prepared with peanut sauce. The sauce was very savoury with strong peanut taste. There were peanuts bits in the sauce to add on extra texture to this dish. The baby asparagus were quite thin, but were fresh and chewy.

Cream Croquettes
I didn't expect this to be cream croquettes, I thought it was deep fried tofu. The outer crust was extremely crispy and free from oil. The filling was very creamy and thick. It was lovely.

Sushi and Sashimi counter

There was separate sushi and sashimi counter which has a lots of choices too.

Crab Meat Roll - I thought this was mozarella cheese roll but turned out it was crab meat roll. The crab meat were made meshy and sweet. It wasn't too bad.
Sweet Shrimp Sashimi - I have always love sweet shrimp, they were extremely tasty. Zuma's shrimp sashimi was very sweet and fatty. I easily killed 10pcs by myself lol. It is usually difficult to find nice shrimp sashimi in buffet and I was extremely contended with Zuma's sweet shrimp sashimi.
Eel roll - The Eel Roll had a cute outlook and tasted pretty nice too. The Eel was fresh, sweet and fatty.
Tamago - I actually had no expectation from the Tamago after seeing its appearance. As expected the Tamago was very rough in texture and not sweet enough. It had a layered texture, but just not good enough.

Tofu pot
This was extremely flavourable, the tofu was very smooth and went well with the miso paste, sesame bits and chopped green onions. It was just too lovely that I urged everyone on the table to try it.

Fried Chicken
I had no idea what it was when I picked it up, I thought it was some kind of deep fried mushroom lol. The chicken was very tender with crispy skin and went well with the mayo sauce on top. Loving it.

~ MAIN COURSE ~

By the time for main, we were quite full already, but we decided to order a few to share among us.

Sirloin Steak, Sauteed Mushrooms, Wafu Sauce
We requested the beef to be cooked medium but it was hideously rough. Its look was quite burnt and tasted same wise. It was too well done and the steak became extremely rough. Totally disappointed.

Salmon Fillet with Ginger Teriyaki Sauce & Pickled Cucumber
Although the salmon was not particularly pretty, it came in with a look out of my expectation. It was tender and savoury in taste, the sauce at the side definitely brought up the flavour of the salmon.

Barley Miso Marinated Baby Chicken, Oven Roasted on Cedar Wood
I was very disappointed at the presentation of the dish. The chicken looked dead on the chopped board with disgusting miso paste spread on top of it. The chicken was tender, probably is black meats. The miso sauce was the same as the tofu's miso paste which was boring. The miso didn't really enhance the chicken's taste. I think this is a failed dish.

Assorted Vegetables & Seafood Tempura
The Tempura was alright with crispy, free from oil crust, however the ingredients weren't that fresh and taste bland.

Ice-creams - There were three flavours of ice-creams on the ice cube - Tofu, Mango, Melon. The tofu was too bland, the mango and melon was refreshing and at suitable sweetness. All the ice-cream texture was quite creamy and tasted nice in generally.
Mint Chocolate Cake - This cake was quite lovely too! It was mint and chocolate mousse with sprinkles of explosive sweets on top. The combination paired pretty well, with refreshing mint balancing the strong chocolate taste, and I also love the explosive sweets adding a twist on the texture.
Blueberry cheesecake - I thought this was only a blueberry preserve but it was fresh blueberry spreading around a soft mousse like cheesecake. The soft cheesecake was surprisingly savoury with strong cheese taste. Not bad.
Fruits - Both the watermelon and the melon had very thin skin, however they were tasteless. I thought they were from Japan or something.

Despite the mains, the food was generally nice. The ambiance was nice and relaxing, the al freco terrace is the perfect spot for smokers(not that I smoke.). Perhaps I should bring my family here sometimes.
