Their Mushroom Soup was superb and their signature dish. It was extremely concentrated(in a good way). Every sip was almost like eating mushrooms. Their server explained that no water was added to the soup, allowing it to be this concentrated.

I ordered their lobster and again it was amazing. The sauce was fragrant and the lobster was springy and perfectly cooked. The sauce was so good I regretted not asking them for a spoon to try it more.

I got to try one piece of their steak from my friends plate. It was cooked beautifully but I have to say it paled a bit compared to the lobster. It was tender all the same and I wonder how tender would it have been if we ordered the wagyu instead.

The raspberry decoration was a little too sweet for me as I expected it to be more tart to match the sweetness of the chocolate). However, it was beautifully made. Moreover, I guess most people prefer it sweeter(I guess I am one of the few who likes the tartness of the fruit)

The souffle was perfectly risen. Although I only tried a spoon, it was just the right sweetness and very airy.

The macrons were the best out of the petit four and was a lovely conclusion to the brunch. Definitely look forward to try their dinner as well.

    This belated birthday brunch at EPURE is highly anticipated, picked from three choices provided by my best friend. The dress code is smart casual. I made a fuss of what to wear and what to carry to go to gym afterwards. The location is awesome at the side of the doorway to the panoramic sea view terrace.

    The restaurant just opens for brunch at noon when we arrived. Only around three tables were filled. We were led to the function room leading to the terrace flooded with a resplendent brass tone and with three widely placed tables. The ceiling was low with modern lighting.

    We both ordered a glass of champagne to celebrate the good mood, and ended up making the same appetizer and main course choices. For dessert, the tableside caramelized mille-feuille certainly caught our eyes.

     The waiters and sommelier took great care in their service, explained every item with patience and went the extra mile to give us surprises. We started off the brunch with a cheerful clink of our champagne glasses. The slightly dry sweetness of the champagne was comforting. Amuse-bouche of the day is cheese puffs and Sichuan chili adorned potato tartlets that also tasted like cheese. Generous homemade bread included milk brioche, cheese crisp and little baguette that tasted normal. The special thing was the butter infused with chili, which was quite mild actually.

     Appetizer: Chilled Maine lobster, Sollies fig, pika gorri vinegar

    I enjoyed the slight briny taste of the lobster. The fig was slightly roasted for extra juiciness. A leaf made of vinegar and a nugget made of cream of lobster added further chemistry to the ingredients and enhanced the delicate presentation.

     Surprise 1: Paris Mushroom Soup

    The waiter suddenly appeared to present us a complimentary mushroom soup. We were given a soup plate with baby spinach and mushroom pieces. Then the waiter poured the creamy mushroom soup into the plate. Read from other reviews that since the white mushroom was from France and the residue from blending the soup was removed so much more ingredient was needed. It is a method quite exclusive for fine dining. We appreciated both the richness and freshness of the soup.

     Main Course: the must-have ‘vol au vent’: flaky butter puff ring, in-season seafood, liquorice scented coulis

    I couldn’t resist ordering this signature menu item. Looking back it would be better to order something else which is not creamy for more variety. The portion looked much bigger than expected. The in-season seafood included hake fish and scallop which was cooked to perfection. Unfortunately, we started to be overwhelmed by the creamy lobster sauce which was a bit too salty and the buttery pastry. The vegetable didn’t help much either and we were taken aback when the waiter offered to give us extra lobster sauce to finish off the pastry.

     Dessert: tableside caramelized mille-feuille, fresh strawberries, lime zest chantilly

    After ordering coffee, a trolley came to us with a colossal mille-feuille. To be honest, at this point we could not appreciate any more pastry, but devoured all the strawberries. That hollow mille-feuille hill seemed like a mountain to climb. The crispy and buttery flavor was good, but even the Chantilly is too much for us. Again it would be better to order two different desserts.

     Surprise 2: Signature Scone

    Coffee and strawberry sorbets were served to finish off the meal. The brunch time was from noon to 3pm. We chatted on and on and didn’t notice the time. It was well after 4pm when the waiter offered us a free signature scone for trial. Scone with clotted cream and jam is actually my favourite afternoon tea item, but my taste buds had gone numb after all the buttery treats.

    The waiter took initiative to help us take photos and made sure that we were full enough. Sometimes we were too occupied with talking about our whereabouts to remember the waiters’ words. Finally, we were politely informed by the waiter that their function room had to be handed over to a 5pm booking, and generously offered to let us continue to sit in the outdoor garden terrace. We declined and ended this brunch that was served like pampering. It was an experience worth trying.
    題外話/補充資料： It would be wiser to order different items among yourselves.
