Sunday brunches have a very special place in our hearts because it is the most important meals over the weekend; bigger than breakfast and more enticing than lunch, there is really nothing not to love about a good Sunday brunch.

Nestled in Mandarin Oriental, Singapore, Melt Café is one of the best choices if you are in the Marina Bay area. Their Sunday Champagne Brunch is simply out of the world—we are talking about endless gourmet food, including bubbles and fun in-house entertainment for everyone in the family.

From fresh oysters of different varieties, premium sashimi from the Japanese counter, a carving station that will satisfy the carnivores to their ever popular Indian cuisine and an outdoor barbecue grill, this is one champagne brunch that is deserving of an encore.

CRAZY CHEESE SELECTION

Brunch is made better when there is an amazing cheese selection and the one at Melt Café will definitely impress you.

Pair your wines with any cheese of your preference that are sourced from countries such as Italy, France and United Kingdom.

FRESH SEAFOOD ON ICE

The seafood counter is a dream come true for all oyster fans. The restaurant sources for oysters from different parts of the world and depending on seasonality, you get to slurp up varieties such as Taylor Pacific, Fine de Claire and Creuses de Bretagne.

Crustaceans such as Alaska King Crabs and Boston Lobsters also stood out among the clams, mussels and prawns at the counter.

JAPANESE DELIGHTS

Tucked away at a corner beside the desserts, the Japanese food station takes on the form of an L-shaped counter which showcases a scrumptious range of both hot and cold Japanese delights.

When you are there, keep a lookout for a large wooden basin which is filled with five types of sashimi including the likes of salmon, tuna, octopus and more. Other tantalising options are the sushi, cold soba, and crispy deep-fried tempura with Japanese curry.

FOIE GRAS & CARVING STATION

Nothing gets better than a ‘live’ carving station at a buffet—until you add on a Foie Gras counter as well. The idea of endless rounds of foie gras is tempting, yes?

To make things even better, the carving station also boasts local and western delicacies such as char siew pork, roasted pork, roasted chicken, slow-roasted Australian prime rib beef and whole baked honey ham.

INDIAN COUNTER

With its over-the-top offerings, it may not occur to you that the Indian counter is actually one of the signatures at Melt Café and let us just say that no one should leave the buffet restaurant without a taste of their savoury curries and buttery naan.

Noteworthy Indian recipes you should not miss for anything in the world are the Tandoori Chicken, Butter Chicken, and more.

OUTDOOR BARBECUE GRILL STATION

Besides the indoor carving station, meat lovers can also head outside to the al fresco terrace where the BBQ grill section is. Take your pick among tantalising options such as the Suckling Pig, Beef Steak, Barbecue Chicken Wings, Pork Collar and Grilled Salmon.

You really have to save space for their Suckling Pig, which is roasted whole in the oven at the outdoor terrace. This method of roasting ensures that the juices are all locked in so the meat remains tender.

DESSERT ENCLAVE

Melt Café’s glorious dessert shrine is reason enough to get you out of bed on a Sunday morning. Featuring desserts from award-winning pastry chefs, this is where you will find all those with a sweet tooth going nuts for the stunning desserts.

The new Amaretto Sabayon—exclusive to Melt Café’s Sunday Champagne Brunch—is a real showstopper, as the dessert is doused with liquid nitrogen to create an enchanting theatrical effect before it is paired with red fruit compote and a topping of your choice.

Other sweet treats that are worth all the calories include the handmade waffles, handcrafted cakes, chocolate fondue, tiramisu in a chocolate cup and premium chocolates.

UNLIMITED CHAMPAGNE, WINES, COCKTAILS, BEERS AND MORE

Alongside world-class international cuisine, Melt Café also offers a neat range of alcoholic beverages because what is a champagne brunch without downing back a tipple or five?

For S$178++, you get to enjoy free-flow Ruinart “R” de Brut Champagne, wines, cocktails, beers, juices and soft drinks. But if you are looking for something more premium to spoil yourself with, there is also an upgraded option at S$218++ which entitles you to unlimited flow of Ruinart Blanc de Blancs Champagne.

It is the middle of the week, and the weekends feel so near yet so far. Keep calm, because Atrium at Pan Pacific Singapore has got your back.

Forget the ladies nights promotions elsewhere, because Atrium understands that both women AND men need their mid-week fix of drinks as well. Starting from 14 June 2017, men and women alike can unwind with Atrium’s WINESday promotion on every Wednesday. This unbelievable deal offers you FREE FLOW of house wines at only S$48++ per person.

From now until 29 Nov 2017, quote ‘ladyironchef’ upon making reservations to enjoy an additional 25% off and a complimentary platter of hand-crafted sausages for groups of 4 persons and above.

This ideal package offers you the opportunity to get a little tipsy with the impressive selection of red and white wines together with some delectable finger food. Wednesdays just got better, pals.

The Atrium is Pan Pacific Singapore’s elegant lounge, located in its lobby, much raved about for its modern decor and incredibly relaxing space.

WINESday is available every Wednesday from 6pm to 9pm. A night of tête-à-tête over great wines awaits.

On Wednesdays, both men and women can enjoy unlimited house wines at Atrium. With the countless amounts of ladies nights promotions out there, which makes this promotion one to really pay attention to because it does not exclude the men. All the wine you can drink for three whole hours at only S$48++ per person; it is really quite unbeatable!

Just think, a decent bottle of wine would easily cost you about S$40 to S$50 so allow us to help you with the math. THIS PROMOTION IS A STEAL.

MILD FRUITY WHITES

You can look forward to the mild and tangy flavours of the Australian and Chilean white wines.

For connoisseurs who relish the light, crisp and fruity flavours of wine, the Heart of Hearts Chardonnay from South Australia will tickle your senses with its fresh and energetic notes of honeydew melon and lemon.

For a tinge of exoticness and revitalisation, the Miguel Torres San Medin Sauvignon Blanc is the ideal bottle for those who are willing to appreciate the zesty fusion of passion fruit and grapefruit.

Alternatively, you will also find delight in the tropical, intense flavours of the Chilean’s Heritage Vale Sauvignon Blanc that will get you in the mood for summer.

ROBUST LOVELY REDS

If you are looking for a stronger, sapid touch to your perfect WINESday, the choice of reds will make your night.

For a warmer, spicier tone with a dash of liquorice, relish the Miguel Torres San Medin Cabernet Sauvignon.

For a more full-bodied and robust alternative, go for the McGuigan Private Bin Merlot from Merlot, France. It possesses a subtle sweetness stemming from red berries and ripe plums. Allow it to captivate your palette with a hint of spicy and smoky notes derived from cinnamon and vanilla as well.

Or for something a little less complexity, consider the Australian Heart of Hearts Shiraz with its rich aroma of blackcurrants.

TAPAS FOR YOUR WINE

That’s not all. Enhance your wine experience by pairing them with Atrium’s sharing dishes, inspired by the cuisines from the Nordic Provence and Middle East regions.

With most white wines, they tend to be a tad bit crisp and dry, so why not pair it with the Cheese Platter or the Warm Alaskan King Crab Leg?

To balance out the bold, robust notes of the reds, consider the Mini Wagyu Beef Sliders, their Sausage Platter or even the wine-steeped French Black Mussels. All sharing dishes start from S$12++.
