Fish & Meat serves really decent Sunday Brunch with a great selection of food. For $398, you can help yourself with as much French oysters, other seafood, a nice variation of salads, pancakes, yoghurt, while you also get a main and a huge slice of cake!I first ordered my drink before I start. I'd fancy a coffee but perhaps a glass of wine as well with my brunch, so I was recommanded to get this glass of Coffee Martini.

I first ordered my drink before I start. I'd fancy a coffee but perhaps a glass of wine as well with my brunch, so I was recommanded to get this glass of Coffee Martini. It was strong and aromatic, sort of like a Irish Coffee but I love it because it comes without the thick, creaminess.
There were French oysters, mussels and shrimps that you can help yourself with. The oysters were fresh and crisp with a slight metallic, briny taste to it. Pretty decent considered it's all-you-can-eat.
But what excited me were the great selection of salads. No matter you are talking about the grilled tomato with creamy burrata, the flaked Norweigian salmon, the Devon crab bruschetta, the butternut squash with parma ham or the rockets with steak, they have all been amazing and I just regret to not have eaten more of them! We have ordered 4 different mains to share - Prime Rib, Smoked Salmon, French Baby Chicken and Barramundi.
The prime rib (+$140) was the best out of all. The beef was prefectly tender, juicy and flavourful. But the carrots were the most surprising of all. I have never been particularly fond of these baby carrots as the earthy taste that usually comes with it creeps me. Here they have stewed the carrots in rich butter, so the sweetness of root vegetable just instantly melt in the mouth and trust me you will be sorry to have missed out your veggies on this dish!
The Salmon (+$70) dish caught most of the attention especially when we poked through the membrane that encloses the yolk. i The cured fish was not as oily as I expected, but then comparatively it's not as heavy when served with the creamy sousvide egg, horseradish crème fraîche and the rösti at the bottom.
The "Diavola" style French Baby Chicken was tender and luscious. Though I would have preferred a more flavourful gravy with it as the meat was just lightly seasoned. It was quite pricy as well considered you need to add extra $230 to get this as main.
The Pan-seared barramundi (need not to add extra) was simple yet delectable. The fish was lightly salted, very sweet and I have loved the crispy skin so much!
For dessert, you can choose between Carrot Cake, Lemon Meringue Tart and Pavlova. I picked the Carrot Cake as it is one of my all time favourite. It came with a light butter cream which apparently is the traditional way of serving it instead of with cream cheese as we usually see nowadays (but to be honest I prefer the cream cheese version ... ) The butter cream was not at all thick and sickly, instead it was nicely whipped to silky. The cake was moister than usual, slightly gooey to be honest. Not bad with such twist but I prefer it crumbly I guess to go with the filling.
The American Pancake is something you should never think of missing no matter how full you are! The freshly made pancake was so fluffy, eggy with a hint of saltiness. So it's good with the vanilla cream, caramel sauce and the crispy bacon!!
Of course, I tried to convince myself that I have been too naughty by having yoghurt after the pancake... (urgh ... as if calories do not sum up like they do) The Greek yoghurt was perfectly creamy and tart, which made a nice finishing with the crunchy homemade granola and tangy raspberry compote.It is always a good idea to charge up yourself to get ready for a full week of work ahead with a nice Sunday brunch. I am all ready for battle!
