I decided to treat my friend to a nice brunch. I booked Prime via the OnLine booking facility on OpenRice it is a convenient and efficient booking system. No waiting time as already booked. We had the weekend brunch which consisted of a salad buffet with soup. The choose our Appetizer and Main course. The Salad buffet was ok, there was enough rocket and other greens to keep us happy, though my friend wasn't too keen on the liberal use of coriander on the potatoes (I didn't mind, but they shou
The Salad buffet was ok, there was enough rocket and other greens to keep us happy, though my friend wasn't too keen on the liberal use of coriander on the potatoes (I didn't mind, but they should be aware that some people really dislike the smell/taste of coriander). The pumpkin soup was nothing special, but was still ok. If you like it you could drink as much as you can, though you should leave space for the appetizer and main course (which can be filling).
Appetizers - We choose the young shrimp cocktail - nice tasty fresh shrimps covered in cocktail sauce. I though it was ok, my friend commented that it had just a little too much sauce. Maybe they could reduce the sauce and it would be great. The other appetizer was bone marrow and escargot served with small toast. Bone marrow looked like globs of fat, but it wasn't heavy and went well with the toast. The escargot was ok.
Main course - My friend choose the Lobster Eggs Benedict. There were a few pieces of lobster on top of the eggs, covered in hollandaise sauce. The dish was quite nice and tasty as any other eggs benedict I had. Its hard to get this dish wrong. I choose the Prime Burger with chips. By this time I was quite full as I had been a little greedy on the salad, I should have left more room!). The chips were nice, they were like McDee's fries but much better as they were lightly salted with sea salt and some still have there skins on. The burger with a fried egg on top was ok, though I didn't enjoy was much as I was feeling full already. The meat tasted chargrilled and was ok, though they should have asked me how I wanted it, as it was it was stated as "Medium" when I would say it was medium-well.
Service was ok, nothing special, but at least they always waited till we finished our current dish before serving us our food, which is always good practice. They also served us warm water on request, always good as I really dislike restaurants who try to force sell their "bottled" water.The surroundings were nice, it was generally quite despite being over half full by the time we got there (at 1.30pm). It's much less crowded in Elements (Civic Square)... which I like about this place.
At just less than $300 per head for a filling brunch I would recommend to take your friends or loved one for a relaxing, filling brunch for a special occaision.
