About this blog

Singapore
Singapore is a melting pot of cultures from all over the world. This rare mix of 5 million people in an area the size of London, has lead to a vast array of culinary experiences. As a bit of a foodie, I plan on experiencing as much of this as possible! Plus, as a designer I will be capturing any creative or just intriguing products, packaging and retail outlets I see a long my journey. Enjoy.

The Hyatt Sunday Brunch

The Hyatt Sunday Brunch was recommended to me several times, so for Rachels 30th birthday celebration, we gave it a go.
They did not disappoint, we were spoilt with the normal selection of seafood, roast meats, cheese boards etc, but they had a few unique touches to their brunch. A satay station was a welcome introduction, there was actually quite a lot of open fires/bbq in the open kitchens, which gave the whole restaurant a great aroma. They also had a live fish station and a extensive sushi station.

We opted for the free flow option, (what else!) and the champagne on offer was Perrier-Jouet.


I have seen slightly better dessert stations at other brunches, however again the Hyatt put their own twist of things by offering something different, liquid nitrogen meringues!

THE Hot Chocolate Shop!




I used to live in Windsor, UK and just across the bridge from Eton is a little Cafe, the Chocolate Theatre Cafe and I love it!

Every week I used to visit. I have always wondered what Roy the owner thinks of me, because each week I would have a new friend, date, relative, work colleague with me, someone new to introduce to the Hot Chocolates and any excuse for me to indulge in another!

5 years on and when I am back in the UK I always go to visit.

You must try one of their extensive range of Hot Chocolates, accompanied by a breakfast, soup, platter or Sandwich, plus if you too have a ultra-sweet-tooth, then treat yourself to one of the incredible homemade cakes and pastries.


I found this little video on you tube...

Cafe On Kohi, Kohimarama, Auckland

This place was amazing! I was so impressed.

We stubbled across Cafe on Kohi whilst on a design trip to New Zealand. The Cafe/Restaurant is located in Mission Bay.

We were there for Brunch and the large variety of food on offer was only bettered by the excellent quality of ingredients and impeccable service.

I had the Eggs Benedict, with spinach and grilled portobello mushrooms.

If you are ever in Auckland it is a must!

Not a bad view too!

Sunday Brunch - The Fullerton Hotel, Singapore


A completely overindulgent day, that resulted in a mega hangover on the Monday! The third Sunday Brunch I have tried in Singapore. The Fullerton is the grandest venue we have had brunch in so far, but it was the busiest, which slightly detracted from the splendor. A great variety of food was on offer, from a traditional Sunday roast Beef dinner, Sushi, Fresh seafood, Breakfast Buffet, Italian food, a massive selection of Cheese, loads of desserts and of course free flowing Moet Champagne, bloody Mary's and Margarita's.

Brunch at Melt, Mandarin Oriental




The best brunch I have ever been too!

The variety was awesome, the quality was exceptional and the Champagne and cocktails was free flowing!

Marriott Brunch, Singapore

11:30 - 3:30
Free flowing Champagne and a fantastic range of top quality food. Calling it a buffet doesn't really do it justice. Put it this way, there isn't a mini scotch egg or vol-au-vont




1st course - Lobster and scallops with mango salsa
2nd course - Fresh duck pancakes
3rd course - Roast beef, mash and veg, my first roast since being here and it was amazing, although there was a lack of Yorkshire puddings!
4th course - Dessert, bread and butter pudding with vanilla cream, black forest gateau with a strawberry macaroon, plus a almond and chocolate baked moose, it was like chocolate marzipan, loved it!
