Ginger at PARKROYAL on Beach Road has undergone a major facelift and reopened its doors, and as loyal patrons of Ginger for years, we were ecstatic to check out the refurbished space. It is gorgeous beyond words!

With Mother’s Day around the corner, this is the perfect chance to bring your Mom and family for a nice meal. Perhaps, Ginger would serve some sort of nostalgia for your parents. After all, the restaurant has been around for decades and for one, we grew up dining there.

The Mother’s Day buffet spread is also worth looking forward to, too. Now that buffet service is allowed to resume, it’s time for a great feast! From classic Asian dishes to vegan options and live stations featuring our local favourites, the woman of your life would be so pleased.

And in the month of June, Ginger is having a Father’s Day buffet which features a meaty menu including Roasted Angus Beef, Foie Gras, Hainan Oxtail Stew and more.

To sweeten the deal, from 2 May to 30 June 2021, one adult dines free with every 2 paying adults when you quote <LIC3-FOR-2> upon making your reservations.

What was once an unassuming-looking buffet restaurant that looks borderline passé is now a swanky space with a botanical-themed decor. Of pastel pink hues, custom wallpapers that feature the ginger plant, rattan fans and wooden furniture, the facelift has successfully transformed the buffet restaurant into what we would like to think is one of the prettiest buffet restaurants in Singapore right now.

With lots of natural sunlight streaming in via the floor-to-ceiling windows, the restaurant is brightly lit and boasts a cheery vibe during the day. At night, it transforms into a cosy space with its warm lights, and the rattan fans add a nostalgic charm to the otherwise modern decor. Very well thought interior design, and it makes dining there even more pleasant!

Dining restrictions have been relaxed and buffet services are allowed to resume. This is wonderful news for people like us who can’t say no to a buffet meal! At Ginger, hygiene is still of utmost concern, but to not take away the joy of a buffet meal, there are various stations where you can get unlimited helpings of your preferred dish, with the food already portioned out in plates. The rest are a la minute stations where the chefs will serve you.

GINGER’S BUFFET HIGHLIGHTS FOR DINNER & MOTHER’S DAY WEEKEND BRUNCH (1 – 31 MAY 2021)

• Coconut Trio with Bird’s Nest
• Free-Range Chicken Collagen Soup with Codfish
• Steamed Herbal Prawns
• Steamed Yellow Chicken with Local Herbs and Ginseng
• Lobster Five-Grain Porridge
• Double Boiled HuaiSan Soup
• Vegan Meatball Stew
• Vegan Satay
• Meatless Burger
• Vegan Dan Dan Noodles

For the Mother’s Day buffet, the highlight for us was the Coconut Trio with Bird’s Nest. Every diner gets one serving of this, and it can both be an appetiser and a dessert. Bird’s nest is steeped in coconut water and double-boiled for a fuller flavour, and then served cold. We slurped up every sip of it!

Another favourite was the Steamed Herbal Prawns. You know how some dishes don’t need any new interpretations? Just a traditional, honest recipe to cook something simple but well – and that is the Steamed Herbal Prawns in this case. Fresh, plump prawns are soaked in an array of herbs. Savour the delectable broth and sweet, juicy prawns.

Soup lovers will be treated to unlimited helpings of the Free Range Chicken Collagen Soup with Codfish. It is light in flavour, but oh so nutritious.

There is a hearty porridge option that both young and old will enjoy, and it’s the Lobster Five-Grain Porridge. What is otherwise just a porridge dish is elevated with the addition of lobsters, and yes, you can get unlimited helpings of this too!

There are also vegan options for the Mother’s Day buffet spread, and they include the Vegan Meatball Stew and Vegan Satay. Can we take a moment to appreciate the Vegan Meatball Stew?! They tasted fantastic and you wouldn’t even be able to tell that they aren’t actually meat. We loved the tangy tomato-based sauce so much and the texture of the roasted vegetables.

If you are looking to pamper your Dads for Father’s Day at Ginger too, here is a preview of what’s coming up in the buffet spread.

Tajimaya at VivoCity—managed by the Creativeateries group—offers a Japanese Yakiniku buffet which comes with unlimited Wagyu, Iberico Pork, Tiger Prawns, Sashimi and more.

The 100-minute buffet is priced at S$49.90++ for lunch, S$59.9++ for dinner. The next time you want to indulge in fine, superior beef with soft and buttery fats that melt in your mouth, make a reservation here.

Tajimaya’s Yakiniku Charcoal Grill is smoke-free so you can enjoy your feast and still step out for shopping without feeling embarrassed about any smells that cling to your hair and clothes. By cooking on the grill that is attached to the table, we were free to decide the doneness of our meat.

The assortment of beef features Australian Wagyu Short Rib, Australian Wagyu Tri-tip, and Australian OX Tongue. Other proteins include Kimuchi Pork Belly, Iberico Pork Collar, Lamb Shoulder, Smoked Duck, and Chicken.

The staff gave each prettily plated cut of meat a splash of oil and a gentle drizzle of sauce. We lightly grilled our cuts of meat which retained their moisture and tenderness. We loved dipping them in the sweet miso sauce and interchanging that with the salty tare that had a small slice of sour orange to impart a hint of zest.

Other seafood options include plump Tiger Prawns and Scallops too. If you need some carbs, they also have California and salmon mayo makis, as well as takoyaki.

Lunch: S$49.90++ (Adult), S$24.90++ (Child)
Dinner: S$59.90++ (Adult), S$29.90++ (Child)

Additional $3.00++ for Friday to Sunday, PH, Special Occasions & their respective eves.

If you were to think of three things that encapsulate Christmas, it would most probably be family, presents and of course, the most amazing festive food! Christmas is the last holiday of the year, so it’s the perfect time to let loose and indulge one last time before the year ends!

This holiday season, JW Marriott Singapore South Beach’s very own Beach Road Kitchen has prepared a wonderful festive buffet filled with traditional festive flair. This year-end affair has Beach Road Kitchen chefs sparing no effort to tickle your tastebuds with a luxurious spread of quintessential festive roasts, seafood and mouth-watering desserts.

Expect freshly-carved Slow Roasted Turkey with a Signature Gravy and Cranberry Sauce and a sumptuous Honey Glazed Gammon Bone-In Ham as their festive highlights. Luxuriate in Beach Road Kitchen’s temperature-controlled seafood haven where you can find Chilled Poached Prawns and freshly-shucked Oysters. You can also watch skilled chefs cook your food à la minute at several live stations.

With this festive buffet, you’re in for a jolly good time with friends and family. To make your gift of bountiful food and precious time this season even more meaningful, quote ‘ladyironchef’ for 50% off 2nd diner when you make a reservation at Beach Road Kitchen.

ANTIPASTI/SALADS

Kickstart your meal with Beach Road Kitchen’s extensive range of antipasti from varying cuisines and cultures. Located in a special temperature-controlled room alongside their fresh seafood, you can expect dishes such as Potato Salad, Grilled Pumpkin and Truffle Mushroom Pasta Salad.

If you were craving some fresh greens, Beach Road Kitchen also has a wonderful salad bar where you can customise the perfect salad to start off your culinary exploration at the buffet. You’ll be spoilt for choice by the variety of toppings and dressings they have available.

ASSORTED CAVIAR STATION

Get a taste of delectable hors d’oeuvres this season and expect a mouthwatering selection of caviar at their Caviar Station! This is the station to make a beeline for as it is only available on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve.

The caviar comes in a variety of flavours and toppings and is served atop a savoury pancake. We enjoyed a delicious pancake of caviar and pickled onions that really whet our appetites, preparing us for the seafood we planned to go for next!

THE SEAFOOD ROOM

One of the highlights at Beach Road Kitchen is definitely their seafood room. It’s a temperature-controlled room that allows for the seafood to be kept fresh until it gets to your plate! You can expect sweet Snow Crabs and succulent cooked Prawns – the freshest ocean catches you’ll taste.

Look forward to having oysters shucked before your very own eyes! It really doesn’t get any fresher than this. Skilled chefs will shuck these tender oysters for you so you can focus on eating only the best and the very freshest. These delicacies are best eaten with just a squeeze of lemon and a dash of tabasco!

Another live station within the seafood room is where chefs will make a seasoned Tuna Tartare à la minute! You can choose what you wish to add to the mix or just let the chef surprise and impress with his own custom blend.

In addition to the Tuna Tartare, enjoy some fresh Salmon Tartare and various kinds of smoked salmon from the seafood room. Accompanying the fresh slices are Duck Rilette, Mustard and Baby Pickles.

Seafood lovers will inevitably find this station the most satisfying! The fresh cold seafood is a perfect prelude to the rest of the hot items at the buffet.

FESTIVE ROAST MEATS

It really wouldn’t be a Christmas buffet without roasted meats to share at the dinner table! Beach Road Kitchen is bringing some quintessential holiday dishes to their lineup such as their Slow Roasted Turkey with Signature Gravy and Cranberry Sauce, as well as their Honey Glazed Gammon Bone-In Ham.

Each turkey is marinated with festive herbs and spices before it is slow-roasted for a minimum of 12 hours at a lower temperature. This meticulous method allows each turkey to remain as juicy, tender and succulent as possible. Pair it with the umami-filled Signature Gravy or the sweet and tangy Cranberry Sauce. Either way, it’s a festive favourite – not hard to see why once you’ve tasted it!

Another of Beach Road Kitchen’s festive roasts would be their Honey Glazed Gammon Bone-In Ham that is coated in the most luscious pure honey extract – straight from the honeycomb! The honey allows for the meat to caramelise beautifully, yet still gives the roast a natural, mildly sweet flavour.

Spiced with cloves, this ham is definitely a traditional staple at every table yet, you won’t tire of it. Accompany the ham with more tangy sweetness from the Pineapple Chutney. It really gives this festive ham a modern twist.

LIVE GRILL STATION

Alongside the carving meats, a plethora of seafood, meat and vegetables are flame-grilled at a live station just for you! Indulge in some freshly-grilled crayfish, tiger prawns, sweet corn and shell-on scallops! It feels just like a big family barbeque once you sink your teeth into the grilled meats – charred-to-perfection!

Our favourite from the grill was the Grilled Lamb Rack. Perfectly juicy with a good char, these tender slabs of meat were so satisfying to eat. Lightly seasoned with a simple mix of salt, pepper and a hint of rosemary, they were simple yet oh-so-delicious. Pair it with some grilled sweet corn to balance out the savoury flavour of the lamb!

LIVE PIZZA STATION

As a kid, we remember staring through the glass dividers as pizza chefs stretched out the dough, sprinkling toppings and sauce on them. Well, you can relive that experience as pizza chefs churn out some fresh classic pizzas in Beach Road Kitchen’s very own pizza oven.

We especially loved the Pepperoni Pizza as the savoury pepperoni complemented the generous helping of cheese baked onto the fluffy pizza dough. It was perfectly cooked in the oven and still piping hot as it reached our plates!

LIVE NOODLE STATION

The live noodle station allows you to pick and choose from a myriad of noodles, vegetables, mushrooms and toppings for your noodles! Choose your soup – Laksa or Beef Broth – and enjoy a piping-hot bowl of freshly cooked noodles.

We chose to have laksa broth with our noodles. This bowl is perfect for spice-lovers. It’s both spicy and creamy, proving to be a really heart-warming bowl of laksa. You can add some fishballs, fishcakes, lobster balls, beansprouts and eggs to your bowl, customizing it to your liking!

CHINESE DELIGHTS

Savour some dishes from Chinese cuisine, showing how diverse Beach Road Kitchen’s buffet line up really is. You can expect iconic zi char favourites such as Sweet & Sour Pork, Black Pepper Stir-Fried Pork and Trio Egg Spinach.

Our favourite from this section had to be the Steamed Tofu with Minced Meat. Silky beancurd is drenched in a savoury soy-based gravy and topped with minced meat to create this Chinese classic. It goes well with a little bit of rice but it’s perfect by itself too!

INDIAN CUISINE SPECIALS

Adding that splash of spice on your plate, Beach Road Kitchen’s Indian cuisine specials will tantalize your tastebuds, tingling them with fragrant spices and sauces. Our favourites from the selection include the Chicken Tikka and crispy Prata.

The Chicken Tikka was super juicy and tender, yet packed amazing flavour with every bite. We paired it with some yoghurt to mellow out the spice and give it a tangy, creamy edge. It went perfectly with the fried Prata!

FESTIVE DESSERT SPREAD

The dessert was probably the biggest highlight of our meal at Beach Road Kitchen. The sweets spread was so luxurious and extensive it was as if we had won a Golden Ticket to a candy factory! This holiday season, Beach Road Kitchen chefs have prepared some familiar festive classics and some more modern Christmas treats.

One of these new-age festive desserts includes their handcrafted Sesame Green Tea Log Cake. Made with green tea mousse, sesame praline and a crunchy feuilletine base, this cake is a definite must-try.

Traditional treats such as Christmas butter cookies, cinnamon cookies and Stollen are also available! Our favourite of the bunch was the star-shaped cinnamon cookies because of how soft they were and surprisingly not all that sweet or cloying.

Something the kids can enjoy and take home would be the cutely-decorated Gingerbread Man cookies. Soft, chewy and with a nice hint of that classic gingerbread spice, it’s definitely a Christmas classic all can appreciate. Keep a lookout for the Gingerbread House that’s specially crafted for the holiday season!

Not to be forgotten at any Christmas meal are Mini Mince Pies and Traditional Mini Granny Smith Apple Crumble Pies. The apple crumble pie was buttery and flaky with a sweet gooey filling of sweet granny smith apples while the mince pie was a spiced mix of meat and dried fruits. Both have their own unique charms – you have to try these!

CLASSIC DESSERTS

One of our favourite features that Beach Road Kitchen has is their Sweets Wall. Displayed in big jars are old-day Singaporean snacks such as iced gems, haw flakes and chocolate wafers.

If you have a thing for crepes, you’ll definitely enjoy this live station. Skilled chefs will prepare some banana custard crepes to order, topping them with a generous dusting of icing sugar. It’s perfectly sweet from the banana and made even creamier with the vanilla bean custard.

Other than festive desserts and old-school sweets, be enthralled by the super extensive range of cakes and pastries Beach Road Kitchen has to offer. End of your meal with some Kueh Lapis and Banana Cake or Matcha, Opera and Black Forest Petit Cakes. Whether they’re local delights or french pastry, they’re the perfect conclusion to your time at Beach Road Kitchen!

As an accompaniment to your meal, enjoy some festive refreshments! Choose from the traditional Mulled Wine with an assortment of fresh fruits or some Strawberry Sparkling Cider. They are all available at the live bar where you can request the bartenders to whip up these festive drinks for you.

Christmas season is truly the best season of the year – what’s not to love about presents and the amazing festive food? Christmas is definitely the time to let loose, have fun and indulge in all that festive nosh.

Edge at Pan Pacific Singapore is one of the best buffet restaurants in Singapore. With their luxurious spread of savoury dishes as well as one of the largest dessert spreads in Singapore, Edge is the perfect destination for your festive celebrations!

What you can expect from Edge’s holiday roast lineup include Pineapple and Clove Glazed Bone-In Gammon Ham, Eight Spices Roasted Whole Turkey and an Oven Roasted Garlic Mustard and Rosemary Angus Prime Beef. Treat yourself to their festive sweet treats that include their Jivara Milk Chocolate Pear William and Caramel Nut Log Cake, Ye Olde English Fruitcake with Brandy Sauce and Christmas Bread Pudding with Pistachio Nuts and Dried Fruits.

If you love this festive season and food as much as us, we know you’ll have a jolly good time at Edge’s Festive Buffet lineup.

To make this holiday season even more special, here’s a gift from us to you! Quote ‘LIC20′ upon making the reservations to enjoy 20% off the festive lunch and dinner buffet at Edge from now till 30 December 2019! Terms and conditions apply.

EIGHT SPICES ROASTED WHOLE TURKEY

A must-have at any Christmas table is a Roasted Whole Turkey. Edge’s turkey has been marinated and seasoned with eight different spices. Each layer of flavour from the spices will meld together in perfect harmony as you sink your teeth into each piece of succulent meat.

The tender turkey meat pairs well with oven-roasted vegetables – a blend of smoky spices and a mild sweetness melded with a charred flavour.

PINEAPPLE & CLOVE GLAZED BONE-IN GAMMON HAM

Another Christmas must-have would definitely be glazed ham. It’s great for sharing and it’s ultra-delicious and has the ability to whet anybody’s appetites. There’s just something about this sweet-and-savoury pairing that makes people happy.

Edge’s Pineapple & Clove Glazed Bone-In Gammon Ham ticks all of the above boxes. The pineapple and clove glaze lends the smoky ham a complex flavour – a blend of sweetness, spice and with a slight tang. This holiday roast will have you craving seconds (and thirds)!

OVEN-ROASTED GARLIC MUSTARD & ROSEMARY ANGUS PRIME BEEF

If you’re a meat-lover and can’t resist a mouth-wateringly good roast beef, look out for Edge’s Oven-Roasted Garlic Mustard & Rosemary Angus Prime Beef. Served with a thick gravy, these perfectly-cooked beef slices will be your new favourite festive dish.

The Angus Prime Beef was served slightly rare with a well-marbled middle. We loved how the beef was so tender and juicy – each bite bursting with flavours from the rosemary and garlic mustard. Pair it with some roasted veggies and you’ll be rubbing your bellies in satisfaction.

CHARCOAL CRUST ROAST GAMMON HAM PIZZA

Pizza fans rejoice! You will be getting the best of both worlds with Edge’s Charcoal Crust Roast Gammon Ham Pizza — they have spun their own festive twist to the usual pizza by adding in Gammon Ham, one of their festive Christmas treats.

We loved how the cheese and gammon ham go so well with each other while the arugula topping gives that peppery hint!

SEAFOOD ON ICE

Edge’s roasted meats may take centre stage this Christmas but their smorgasbord of fresh seafood should not be underestimated. What you can expect is freshly sliced salmon, octopus and tuna sashimi.

Choose from a wide range of oceanic gems ranging from huge lobsters, chunky prawns, crayfish, scallops and mussels to clams, and eat to your heart’s content! When you are here, expect nothing less than fresh and juicy crustacean meat.

SASHIMI

Did someone say unlimited sashimi? Glad we have your attention. Be sure to save room for thick slices of tuna, octopus and salmon sashimi.

NAM-TOK SALMON SASHIMI

Also on Edge’s festive seafood lineup is Nam-Tok Salmon Sashimi. Fresh salmon sashimi is dressed in a marinade of lime and dried chillis, giving the silky salmon new depth of flavour. We simply devoured the sashimi – the lime and chilli marinade was just too addictive!

LOCAL DELIGHTS

Edge also plates up some seriously delectable renditions of our local classics. This year’s lineup includes Singapore Black Pepper Crab and Wok-Fried Kway Teow with Pacific Clams & Eggs.

Black Pepper Crab is a Singaporean favourite. Sweet crabmeat paired with a savoury pepper sauce that you simply can’t get enough of – what’s not to love? The fried kway teow is equally delicious – the charred “wok-hei” taste whilst prominent, still allows the flavour of the seafood shine through.

ASIAN SPECIALITIES

The holiday lineup at Edge also includes a wide range of Asian cuisines. These Asian specialities will tantalize your tastebuds in the best way possible.

If you’re a fan of spice, the peranakan Udang Masak Lemak Nenas is a spicy seafood curry with fresh prawns and tomatoes. The spice is strong but is balanced out by the sweetness of the tomatoes and the succulent prawns!

You can also expect Saffron Turkey Tikka. Instead of the traditional chicken tikka loved by anyone who enjoys Indian cuisine, turkey is used. The juicy turkey meat is so wonderfully spiced and flavoured, it’s sure to be a hot favourite this season.

The last dish hails from China – “Zha Jiang Noodles” with shredded cucumber and chilli. This Chinese cuisine classic is a mix of “QQ” noodles and a savoury meat sauce that’s impossible to resist.

CARVING STATION & MEAT SELECTION

Besides the festive goodies, Edge’s normal buffet lineup is nothing short of spectacular and is just as mouthwateringly delicious. Look forward to the abundance of grilled meats at their Grill Station and their freshly cut roasts at the Carving Station.

Our favourites were the tender Baked Whole Salmon, Crackling Roast Pork and the Grilled Beef with Roasted Potatoes! Not forgetting the umami-bomb that was the Beef Stew – fork-tender beef is stewed in a thick, rich savoury stew.

STREET FOOD GALORE

Even more than just local delights, Edge has live stations to cater to street food junkies – a DIY Lok-Lok station for those who love their goodies on skewers and even a live Chicken Rice Station where skilled chefs will chop up some tender chicken for you on the spot!

CHRISTMAS BREAD PUDDING WITH PISTACHIOS & DRIED FRUITS

Of course, a Christmas table isn’t complete without some sort of bread pudding. This ooey-gooey treat is well-loved by young and old for its nostalgic flavour, reminding everyone of home as soon as you taste it!

Bread is steeped in sweet custard and topped with a vibrant assortment of fruits and nuts, making for this unforgettable Christmas classic. We loved how despite its simple, rustic look, it was still a flavour and texture explosion.

FESTIVE CAKES & DESSERTS

This festive period, Edge has created some delicious sweet treats for diners; think Jivara Milk Chocolate Pear William nd Caramel Nut Log Cake, Durian Log Cake and Ye Olde English Fruitcake with Brandy Sauce.

It’s time to throw your diets out of the window for one night and savour these delectable desserts! Our favourite had to be the Durian Log Cake with such a fresh durian cream filling. Durian-lovers will have a new favourite dessert once you taste this indulgent log cake.

If you’re someone who can’t go without a little alcohol in their desserts, the boozy brandy sauce for the Ye Olde English Fruitcake will have you craving for more!

DESSERT SHRINE

A trip to Edge is simply not complete without a trip to their epic dessert shrine. Stepping into the sweets zone, you’ll feel like you’re a Charlie in the chocolate factory, reliving your dreams of being surrounded by all-things sugary and sweet.

This is the station to worship and stuff your mouths full of sweet, chocolatey goodness, as they have a wide array of quality desserts, such as Nama Chocolates, petite cakes and chocolate pralines.

Do not leave Edge without trying their amazing Nama Chocolates! They come in three flavours: Matcha, Rum Chocolate, and Raspberry. These tiny indulgent squares have a smooth, velvety texture that is dusted with fine cocoa powder. When we bit into them, they immediately melted in our mouths, oozing a thick, luscious filling.

ATRIUM RESTAURANT’S SIGNATURE DISHES

HAINANESE CHICKEN RICE

Enjoy a well-prepared serving of authentic Hainanese Chicken Rice right before your eyes. Choose from the steamed or roasted chicken, which will be chopped on-the-spot, based on your preference. You can then add the respective condiments that you desire like the dark soya sauce or spicy garlic chilli.

CARROT CAKE

“It doesn’t matter if you’re black or white” – fried carrot cake is always good! Loved by locals and Singapore’s visitors, carrot cake is one local food that’s super hard to hate. Atrium Restaurant dishes up this Singaporean classic straight from the wok and into your plates. We loved how this timeless dish was both sweet-and-savoury – we really couldn’t keep our forks off of it!

ROTI PRATA & CURRY

Known for their much raved about Indian dishes and curries, the Roti Prata Live Station at Atrium Restaurant serves freshly-made roti pratas that are paired with a serving of spicy curry.

The prata soaks up the curry so deliciously and a kick of spice really ties everything together.

CHICKEN SHAWARMA

Carved specially for diners at a live rotisserie is Atrium Restaurant’s Chicken Shawarma. Marinated with a blend of aromatic spices, the chicken is cooked to perfection – tender, succulent and oh-so flavourful. Dip these cuts of roasted meat in a tangy yoghurt sauce to enjoy this dish fully.

SATAY

Singapore is known for its street food and Satay is definitely one of the most popular and well-known dishes everyone far and wide should try when visiting our sunny island. You can get freshly-grilled chicken and lamb Satay, basted with lemongrass and accompanied by a spicy peanut gravy.

LAKSA

Silky rice noodles, beancurd, egg and seafood are drenched in a thick and creamy spicy broth in Atrium Restaurant’s DIY-Laksa live station. Choose from a variety of toppings to put in your own perfect bowl of laksa. It’s one of Singapore’s most comforting bowls of noodles – you’ll be instantly hooked with this rendition.

OTHER HIGHLIGHTS OF THIS HALAL-CERTIFIED BUFFET

CHILLI CRAB

Let’s not forget the most iconic Singaporean dish – The Chilli Crab. Succulent crab is cooked in spicy-sweet chilli gravy, laced with a slurry of silky egg. A bite of sweet crab meat paired with this delectable rendition of chilli crab sauce is simply to-die-for!

Pair it with deep-fried mantou and you’ll then truly taste why Chilli Crab is one of Singapore’s most famous specialities.

MEE SIAM

Other than Laksa, you can also customise your own Mee Siam. Add some bean sprouts, beancurd and egg to complete this local classic.

GADO GADO & POPIAH

Adding on to the several live stations Atrium Restaurant has to offer, skilled chefs will help you assemble your perfect roll of popiah as well as your very own plate of Gado Gado, an Indonesian classic. Choose from a spectrum of fresh vegetables and toppings and the chefs will gladly whip up a plate that is sure to bring a smile to your face.

SEAFOOD ON ICE

Atrium Restaurant’s Seafood on Ice features prawns, flower clams, fresh scallops and black mussels. Accompanying the seafood are a selection of curated sauces including Tabasco and Sesame sauce. Pair it with a spritz of lemon and you’re good to go!

WHOLE BAKED FISH WITH 6 DIFFERENT SAMBALS

Another one of Atrium Restaurant’s most popular live stations would be their Whole Baked Fish. The succulent fish can be paired with any of the 6 varieties of sambal sauce – Sambal Terasi (Indonesian Sambal with Shrimp Paste), Nonya Sambal Belacan, Sambal Ikan Bilis, Sweet Chilli Sambal, Sambal Tumis (Stir-fried Chilli Paste) and Garlic Chilli Sauce (Chicken Rice Chilli).

Our favourite of the bunch was the Sambal Tumis as it had a nice tangy yet spicy kick which complemented the baked fish super well. A close second was the Nonya Sambal Belacan with its umami-bomb flavour!

JAPANESE SUSHI & SMOKED FISH

The sushi selections vary from salmon, California rolls, scallops and ebi prawn sushi. You can also get smoked fish to go along with the sushi selections.

CHINESE CUISINE

There are popular dishes from Chinese cuisine such as Yong Tau Foo with Hot Bean Sauce and Wok Fried Chicken with Shredded Bell Peppers. The two dishes that caught our fancy the most were the Wintermelon with Chicken Soup and the Braised Ee Fu Noodles.

The soup was so flavourful despite its simple appearance, having a complex mix of sweetness and a nice savoury chicken flavour. Like most Chinese soups, this was a hearty bowl that kept us going back for more. The Ee Fu noodles were super “QQ” and also packed with a lot of hearty ingredients and flavour from being stir-fried.

WESTERN DELIGHTS

Other than just Asian cuisines, there are also dishes from Western origins such as a super delectable Chicken Stew and Pan-Fried Fish with Orange Sauce.

We loved how tender and juicy the chicken was after being stewed for hours. The stew itself was bursting with flavour and every ingredient was mouthwateringly delicious after being simmered in the thick gravy.

DIY ICE KACANG STATION

Of course, every buffet will be judged by its dessert spread as well and Atrium Restaurant will not disappoint with its revamped lineup of sweet treats. One particular live station will keep local-cuisine lovers on their toes – the DIY Ice Kacang Station!

Grab some shaved ice, sweet syrups, red beans, jellies and corn – you’ve got yourself an amazing local dessert.

ICONIC ICE CREAM SANDWICH

If you’re feeling nostalgic, head on over to Atrium Restaurant’s very own Ice Cream Bicycle where a chef will slice up some ice cream with some rainbow bread or wafers – just like the good ol’ days! Choose from chocolate, vanilla or even durian ice cream to go with your choice of “wrap”.

DURIAN PENGET

Durian-lovers rejoice! Atrium Restaurant’s Durian Penget is something everyone can look forward to. What’s not to love about a creamy, luscious mash of sweet durian pudding? The answer has to be “nothing”.

This creamy dessert is definitely one of the more sinful dessert options, but you’re already at a buffet so just indulge to your hearts’ content while you’re here!

Lunch (Mon-Fri): $64++ per adult | $20++ per child (6-12 years old)

Well-known for their excellent execution of local Singaporean fare, Ginger at PARKROYAL on Beach Road is back with a new weekend buffet line-up, aptly named Ocean’s Treasures, showcasing an impressive selection of fresh crabs, lobsters and other nostalgic dishes we know and love.

Seafood lovers will be completely satisfied and rewarded with the incredible new spread that is offered here. Introducing Ocean’s Treasures, this buffet range will run from now until 28 July 2019.

This luxurious spread presents an expansive selection of crustacean and other seafood to satisfy every seafood craving. Look forward to local favourites such as the beloved Singapore Chilli Crab, as well as drool-worthy Herbal Claypot Crab and crispy golden-brown Cereal Crab.

If you love seafood and are craving some local delights, Ocean’s Treasures buffet at Ginger will be sure to tantalise your taste buds. To make your feasting a little more enjoyable, quote ‘ladyironchef’ upon making your reservation to enjoy a 25% off from now until 28 July 2019!

CLASSIC SEAFOOD ON ICE

There is a saying that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication and it holds true when it comes to Ginger’s line-up of mussels, clams, tiger prawns and crab legs.

The Snow Crab Legs we had were incredibly easy to crack open, so diners won’t have to spend ages searching for meat in every crevice. Digging into the tender flesh can be likened to being kissed by the ocean, that is just how fresh the meat was!

Simply add a spritz of lemon and you can enjoy the taste of the freshest seafood Ginger has to offer. Sweet, simple and yet oh-so-satisfying.

SINGAPORE CHILLI CRAB WITH DEEP FRIED MANTOU

Chilli Crab is a perennial favourite at every buffet table. With its rich, sweet and tangy gravy, it is perfect to have with Deep Fried Mantou which you can use to soak up the sauce; the crispy exterior and pillowy soft interior makes is every Singaporeans’ Achilles’ heel.

Filled with plenty of eggs to make the gravy extra luscious and thick, the savoury and spicy taste brings out the fresh flavours of the crab.

CEREAL CRAB

For something with a subtler flavour, try Ginger’s rendition of Cereal Crab. The cereal flakes lightly coat the succulent crabs, giving the sweet meat a chance to shine through. The sweet toasted flavour of the cereal serves as the perfect background to the fresh flavour of the crab.

Crab flavours are rotational here, so depending on when you visit, you may get to savour other classics like Black Pepper Crabs and Salted Egg Crabs.

HERBAL CLAYPOT CRAB

Steeped in a clay pot that is filled with an earthy broth infused with the goodness of locally-sourced herbs, the Herbal Claypot Crab can be ordered from the chefs at the live station.

Diners who are looking for a healthier option but still want to indulge in the seafood galore should dive into this crab rendition for the juicy and succulent meat while slurping up the scrumptious broth.

BABY LOBSTER IN SAMBAL WITH PETAI

Known as the “bitter bean” or “stink bean”, the petai had an interesting taste that may spark debate on the table.

For spice lovers, Ginger has got you covered with their sambal baby lobster dish, made with petai. The more you eat it, the more it grows on you. These babies are tossed in Ginger’s special sambal that gives both flavour and an addictive heat. The lobster meat is tender and goes well with the spice impeccably well.

GRILLED RIVER PRAWNS

Also available at the barbeque live station are the Grilled River Prawns that are lightly grilled with just the right amount of char to it. These river prawns are juicy and sweet while the creaminess encased in the head of the shells adds an extra savoury oomph to it.

Grab a bowl of the Thai sauce for an extra spicy kick.

BAKED SALMON

Pairing a cult favourite flavour of salted egg with the fatty goodness of salmon, the Baked Salmon promises to take diners on a wonderful gourmet adventure.

Topped with a generous helping of crunchy pieces of fish skin, it is without a doubt that the Baked Salmon will be a hit and one that will leave you salivating for more with its varying textures and flavours.

CARVERY AND MEATS

The Shawarma is served at the carving station with a live rotisserie. It is a tantalising sight as the shawarma is carved right in front of your eyes and you can see the juices drip from the roasted meat.

Ginger’s spin on the classic Peranakan dish, Babi Pongteh, is made from braised pork belly with fermented soybeans. Fork-tender with a significant depth of flavour to the dish from the soyabeans, the Asian in us really enjoyed this simple but hearty dish.

Our favourite of all the non-seafood meats was the Coffee Pork Ribs. A local favourite at several zichar spots, these ribs are uniquely flavoured with a sweet-sticky coffee glaze. There was just something special about the lingering bitterness of the sauce that made us keep digging into this dish.

FAMILIAR LOCAL DELIGHTS

Ginger also has a plethora of local dishes that will make the true-blue Singaporean in you very happy. Take a trip down memory lane and savour dishes such as Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce, Kueh Pie Tee, Singapore Laksa and even a DIY Rojak Station.

The laksa really stood out to us, having a thick and flavourful broth with a bit of a spicy kick to balance the sweetness of the coconut milk. Feel free to add as many toppings you want from their array of classic laksa ingredients (think fishcakes, quail eggs and shrimp).

SWEET TREATS YOU’LL LOVE

Unlike most buffet dessert spreads, Ginger focuses on bringing local flavours to the table. Look forward to an extensive range of various nyonya kueh, ranging from every child’s favourite Lapis Sago to the pretty blue Pulut Tai Tai.

Alongside the local desserts is a range of petite cakes and pastries including a Strawberry Yogurt Cake, Blueberry Crumble and a creamy Durian Cake.

This post is brought to you by Ginger at PARKROYAL on Beach Road.

From the humble streets of Chinatown to the enclave of old Kampong Glam, PARKROYAL on Beach Road’s all-day dining buffet restaurant has long been known to deliver excellent renditions of local classics. Drawing inspiration from Singapore’s rich culinary landscape, the chefs here spare no effort in preparing a sumptuous buffet spread of mega proportions.

Their all-new weekend lunch and dinner spread—happening from now until 30 April 2019—encompasses cuisine spanning the far reaches of Southeast Asia from their Indonesian-inspired Wagyu Beef with Rendang Sauce, cult favourite, Salted Egg Yolk Crab and their all-new Claypot Rock Lobster with Fish Maw Soup that’s worthy of multiple helpings. Birthed from the hands of an experienced team of chefs, this weekend spread boasts a rustic, nostalgic appeal—one delicious mouthful at a time.

If you haven’t quite gotten over the recent Chinese new year holiday, then perhaps some proper feasting is in order. And to make your weekend dining experience even better, our readers can quote “LIC25” to enjoy a 25% discount on the weekend lunch and dinner buffet!

WAGYU BEEF WITH RENDANG SAUCE

There’s much to look forward to in the meat department and the one dish that’s worth having seconds of is their Wagyu Beef with Rendang Sauce. Tender, gorgeously pink and finished with a multi-dimensional gravy, this centrepiece stunner is one that’s worthy of multiple helpings.

The Wagyu beef, in all its tender, buttery glory is perfect on its own but what really takes it to the next level is the beautifully done rendang sauce. Much less viscous than your typical rendang gravy, do not be fooled because for what this sauce lacks in thickness, it sure as heck makes up for in flavour. A whirlwind of fresh flavours, the elements of lemongrass, ginger, garlic, turmeric and chilli do well to blanket the decadent Wagyu.

ROAST DUCK

Earning its place among the variety of premium meats over at the live carving station, do not miss your opportunity to snag a piece of their Roast Duck. We were fortunate to land ourselves the thigh portion which was tender and oozing with its own natural, flavour-packed fat.

Roasted to juicy perfection, the meat is succulent and devoid of any gaminess. During cooking, the fat of beneath the outer skin is properly rendered out, resulting in a paper-thin skin that’s crispy and delicious.

SOFT SHELL CRAB WITH WASABI MAYO

As addictive as a tub of love letters, one will find it incredibly difficult to resist going back for seconds (even thirds) for these deep-fried bad boys. Coated lightly in a flavoured batter and fried to crispy perfection, these delicious morsels taste similar to seafood tempura but better. Drizzle some wasabi mayo over it for a heightened depth of flavour.

SINGAPORE CHILLI CRAB WITH DEEP FRIED MANTOU

A staple at Ginger, their rendition of chilli crab is always a crowd pleaser. With all the foundations of the iconic dish done right—from the sweet, spicy and subtly tangy sauce to the quality of the crabs that are cooked just right—it’s hard to say that their take on it is anything but delicious.

Thickened with a beaten egg, the sauce develops thick, almost spreadable consistency that is just perfect when paired with deep-fried mantou.

SALTED EGG YOLK CRAB

Buttery, creamy but above all, savoury with a subtle zing, their rendition of the ever-popular Salted Egg Yolk Crab will have you diving in for seconds. Albeit the sauce is thick, the flavour was nicely balanced and well rounded out by the aromatic curry leaves. The crab meat was sweet and firm, serving as a worthy accompaniment for the luxurious salted egg yolk sauce.

CLAYPOT ROCK LOBSTER WITH FISH MAW SOUP

New to their arsenal of crustaceans is the Rock Lobster. To best appreciate the natural flavours of their premium Rock Lobster, we highly recommend heading over the live station to get yourself a serving of their Claypot Rock Lobster with Fish Maw Soup.

Cooked à la minute, the chef heats up 3 sizeable halves in a claypot of fish maw soup. Clear and comforting, the soup is flavoured simply with Chinese cooking wine, fresh broth and fish maw.

ROCK LOBSTER IN BLACK PEPPER SAUCE

If you’d much prefer something with a tinge of heat, definitely go for the other option which sees these sweet, fleshy crustaceans cooked in a flavourful black pepper sauce alongside aromatics such as curry leaves and garlic. Aptly peppery and fragrant without overshadowing its natural flavour, this dish was well executed, pushing the potential of the otherwise mildly flavoured lobsters and giving it an edgier appeal.

STIR-FRIED HOKKIEN PRAWN NOODLE WITH OBAR LEAVES

We set pretty high standards when it comes to Hokkien mee and we’re never slow to crucify anyone who desecrates one of our all-time favourite local dishes. Fortunately for us, no nails and crosses were required this time. On the contrary, the dish was well executed and encompassed all the right qualities of a good Hokkien mee.

The wok hei aroma and flavour was apparent and the noodles were cooked to just the right consistency—moist but not saucy. The dish boasts an intense flavour of fresh prawns and pork, and the strands of egg noodles did well to absorb all of it.

DIY KUEH PIE TEE

A hugely popular Peranakan snack, one of the things we tend to repeatedly gravitate towards is their DIY Kueh Pie Tee Station. For one, the thin and crispy tart shell (known as the kueh) is fresh and the pie tee—the sweet mixture of finely diced vegetables—is soft, sweet and flavourful.

Here’s a tip on how to achieve that perfect one-biter: fill it up about three-quarters of the way with their delicious pie tee and top it off with a smidgen of sambal, a tiny drizzle of sweet sauce and a few coriander leaves. Spicy, sweet and fresh all in one bite, it’s impossible to stop at just one.

Charting a hawker-forward course to flavour town, Spice Brasserie—PARKROYAL on Kitchener Road’s all-day dining restaurant—is set to welcome an all-new spread dedicated to the very best of Singapore’s local hawker scene.

Curated by Executive Chef Robert Chan, along with his culinary brigade of seasoned chefs, diners can expect unlimited servings of local must-haves from the classic street side favourites, Oyster Omelette, zi char staple, like Marmite Chicken as well as the crowd favourite, Slipper Lobster in Black Pepper Sauce. If you’re a die-hard durian fanatic, we promise you their sweet, decadent Durian Pengat with Sticky Rice is worth every penny.

Guaranteeing a smorgasbord of mouthwatering delights all in one place and at a very reasonable price point, look no further than to Spice Brasserie from 14 February to 15 May 2019. And to spice things off even further, our readers can quote “ladyironchef” upon making a reservation to enjoy 25% off the lunch and dinner buffets.

BAK KUT TEH MEE SUA

We’ve tried many contemporary renditions of bak kut teh and our verdict is always the same; don’t mess with the quintessential foundations of the dish. Here, the chefs do well to adhere to the dish’s original recipe with their Bak Kut Teh Mee Sua, making sure to strike a good balance between peppery notes, meaty pork flavour and garlicky umami.

The broth is clear, mildly flavoured yet possesses a good body. We liked that the pork ribs were fork tender but not overly soft such that they would crumble like flaky pastry into the broth.

OYSTER OMELETTE

Crispy around the edges, eggy and tossed in a generous helping of fresh oysters, few things come close to the satisfaction that a properly cooked oyster omelette gives. The version served here differs in that they use considerably more egg in the mixture, creating an omelette that’s much fluffier and less chewy—not particularly a bad thing.

The oysters are fresh, plump and give off a nice briny flavour that goes exceptionally well with the chilli sauce served on the side.

SLIPPER LOBSTER IN BLACK PEPPER SAUCE

On weekends, look out for a series of tantalising seafood offerings packed with heady aromas and flavours that every Singaporean can identify with. Their Slipper Lobster In Black Pepper Sauce is one such offering that impressed us quite a bit.

The savoury, concentrated sauce coupled with a punchy pepper flavour nicely complements the sweet, tender lobster flesh and we are huge fans of how the lobster separates easily from its shell, a credit to its freshness and overall doneness.

MUD CRAB IN CHILLI AND PEANUT SAUCE

A rather odd pairing that left us confused at first, their Mud Crab In Chilli And Peanut Sauce strikes a surprisingly delicious balance between a sweet nutty crunch and a tangy, savoury chilli crab sauce.

Executed well, the flavours complemented one another rather nicely breathing new life into what would otherwise be an experiment-gone-wrong. Don’t be shy about slapping on a few deep-fried mantou buns to mop up the spicy, lip-smacking gravy.

MARMITE CHICKEN

Coated in a sticky Marmite-based sauce that boasts a consistency as syrupy as fudge, the Marmite Chicken—a popular zi char meat dish—is one worth loosening your belt buckle for. Period.

This divine dish sees tender pieces of chicken, coated in flour and deep-fried to golden perfection before being tossed in a syrupy marmite sauce. The result? Savoury, succulent chicken that is salty, sweet and tangy all in one. We highly recommend having this with white rice on the side.

MASALA THOSAI

To further showcase the true multicultural food scene in Singapore, diners can look forward to a repertoire of dishes spanning all corners of Southeast Asia, from their Penang Assam Laksa, Indonesian Beef Rendang and more.

Fans of Indian food can look forward to an array of Indian delights such as their Masala Thosai, cooked fresh upon order over at the live action station. Crispy on the outside and spongy on the inside, filled generously with a masala packed with intense aromas and chunks of potatoes, giving the dish body underscored by a good amount of heat.

WOK FRIED LA LA IN XO SAUCE

Shining light on hugely underrated hawker classic is their very-well-done, Wok Fried La La in XO Sauce. Spicy, fragrant and everything in between, this dish had us addicted from start to finish. The la la was fresh and like a sponge, they took on the savoury flavour of the XO sauce really well.

CRISPY FRIED SEA BASS WITH HOT AND SPICY SAUCE

Riddled with a heady aroma of tang and bright fruity notes and crisp flaky skin that just pulls apart effortlessly, the Crispy Fried Sea bass with Hot and Spicy Sauce is one centrepiece stunner that deserves top marks as well. You have to act quickly though because this dish is one that gets mopped up as soon as it exits the kitchen.

DURIAN PENGAT WITH STICKY RICE

We’re suckers for anything containing durian but what we particularly love about their Durian Pengat is the fact that despite it having a strong aroma of the fruit itself, the flavour was nice and mellow.

Sweet, the way it should be, the velvety smooth dessert boasts a buttery flavour, a reflection of the high-quality durians that they use. Served with warm sticky rice, a lightly salted coconut cream and fried tau suan, the otherwise mousse-like dessert is taken to a whole new level and after much trial and error, the chefs really nailed it.

LOCAL DESSERTS & DIY MUAH CHEE

If durian isn’t your thing, there are loads of other time-honoured treats such as Pulut Hitam, Tau Suan with fried fritters, assorted Nonya kueh, cakes and more to tickle your sweet tooth. Oh, and they even have a DIY muah chee station which is one of the buffet restaurant’s more unique attractions!

Complementing the spread is a selection of appetisers over at the seafood on ice counter, sashimi and sushi at the Japanese corner. This local hawker food feast will be going on from 14 February to 15 May 2019 and diners can quote ‘ladyironchef’ upon making reservations to enjoy 25% OFF both the lunch and dinner buffets.

Since Ginger at PARKROYAL on Beach Road’s opening last year, they’ve been serving up value-for-money buffet deals one after another. Famed for their stellar seafood spread, they’ve never failed to delight us. Expect nothing short of a wonderful feast of five flavours of crabs and a lobster this time around.

Crustacean lovers looking for an indulgent meal will be delighted by Ginger’s long-time popular favourites such as Black Pepper Crab, Chilli Crab, Salted Egg Yolk Crab and Pumpkin Lobster in Claypot, as well as new creations such as  Rock Salt Baked Crab—all on top of their regular buffet spread on a rotational basis. It’s an all-you-can-eat plethora of decadent premium seafood and local delights.

The Wonders of Pincers buffet line-up of signature offerings will run from now till the 30 November 2018. And you can quote ‘LIC25′ upon making your reservations for a 25% off buffet dinners. There’s no way anyone would let this chance pass by, so do make your reservations ASAP.

BLACK PEPPER CRAB

For those familiar with Ginger, you’d already know that the Black Pepper crabs are a show stopper in their own right. Its aromatic wok hei emphasizes the prominent peppery zing, leaving a lingering fiery heat on the tongue. It makes for a highly addictive mouthful that you’d just can’t help but want more of.

CHILLI CRAB

The much-loved Chilli crab is a staple in a typical local feast, and definitely so here at Ginger too. Sweet, savoury and spicy all in one, the gravy is extra rich and luscious with tons of silky egg stirred into the sauce. The savoury aroma of the sauce brings out the natural sweetness of the crab, allowing diners to appreciate the freshness of the crabs at their best.

PUMPKIN LOBSTER IN CLAYPOT

This particular recipe has won countless praises since its debut at Ginger’s live counter. With a fresh pot whipped up right as you order it, it combines the succulent texture of the lobster with herb-infused pumpkin puree to create a sweet pleasant aftertaste, leaving your taste buds begging for more.

ROCK SALT BAKED CRAB

For the slightly more health-conscious, Ginger also offers Rock Salt Baked Crab. It’s infused with ginger and Radix Angelicae Sinensis—or more commonly known as Dang Gui—which is a herb that helps to boost blood circulation. This rendition is available at the barbeque live station, where the crabs get an extra char to give it that added smokey touch.

SALTED EGG YOLK CRAB

It is, perhaps, impossible to exclude salted egg yolk from Singapore cuisine now. There’s something about the rich grainy creamy egg yolk sauce on the crabs that has every reason to borrow the phrase “finger-licking good” for itself. Along with chilli padi and curry leaves, it makes for an extremely indulgent and sinful dish.

BARBEQUE LIVE STATION

If you love the sizzling sounds and smoky aromas unique to that of an open grill, you’d love their barbeque live station.

Apart from the Rock Salt Baked Crab, there are also plenty of other delectable offerings on display. Choose from your local favourites such as otah, chicken wings and even sambal stingray! All these are cooked on the open grill in front of you in order for diners to best savour the aromatic smokey char that complements that natural taste of the dishes.

You can also think of this as a “Chomp Chomp-style feast”—free-flow.

FRESH SEAFOOD ON ICE

Seafood enthusiasts would also be delighted to know that the party doesn’t stop at just the pincer line-up. Apart from those, Ginger’s array of seafood offerings are all displayed on a bed of ice for diners to help themselves to.

From juicy sweet prawns to meaty mussels and crunchy conches, help yourselves to even more seafood!

LOCAL DELIGHTS

Ocean gems aside, the buffet spread includes plenty of other local favourites as well as regional specialities. We loved their crispy pork belly which was cut on the spot, and their prata were served hot and crispy.

If you are lucky, you will get to try the braised pig’s intestines and salted vegetables. Scoop yourself a bowl of porridge, then drizzle it with the braised sauce and a huge serving of pig’s intestines and stewed salted vegetables; this is the epitome of comfort food!

DESSERTS

Ginger might not have the most extensive spread around, but rest assured they’ve covered all grounds with a mix of both Western cakes and tarts, and Asian kuehs and sweet soup.

As “The Wonder of Pincers” is only available for a limited time till 30 November 2018, do make your reservations ASAP and quote ‘LIC25′ to enjoy a whopping 25% discount!

Spice Brasserie at PARKROYAL on Kitchener Road astounds us once again with their value-for-money seafood buffet spreads; this time, look forward to a shellfish buffet dinner that is aptly named Gifts of the Sea.

The Gifts of the Sea buffet features a stellar array of crustacean dishes. From local favourites such as Chili Crab and Salted Egg Yolk Crab to modern takes of seafood items such as the Lobster Bao, this is one seafood buffet to get excited about if you are feeling a little low on budget but still want a fantastic seafood meal.

From now until 31 August 2018 through Thursdays to Sundays, quote ‘ladyironchef’ to enjoy Spice Brasserie’s Gift of The Sea Buffet Dinner at S$108++ for 2 pax (U.P. S$65/ adult, S$32.50/ child). Be greeted by the likes of a mind-boggling myriad of seafood dishes!

CHILLED SNOW CRAB CLAW

Heading straight for the snow crab claw on ice would be a fantastic way to kick-start your feast at Spice Brasserie.

Snow Crabs come with a hefty price tag but here, you can enjoy endless servings of fresh snow crab claws. We don’t know about you, but we definitely wouldn’t give this a miss even though it isn’t a hot main on its own!

ALL-TIME FAVOURITE CRABS

Get ready to get your hands dirty with a crab party!

The Salted Egg Crab is a definite crowd pleaser and one that we always go for second helpings when at Spice Brasserie. It is that consistently good. Other local favourites such as Chilli Crab are also part of the Gifts of the Sea buffet lineup.

SALTED EGG CRAB

The Salted Egg Yolk Crab was nicely doused in a rich and luscious salted egg yolk sauce that had every reason for us to lick our fingers even after we were done wiping up the succulent crab meat.

Salted egg yolk dishes are commonly found but good ones are hard to come by—we are indeed pleased to say that Spice Brasserie’s salted egg yolk crab is one that will not disappoint.

BLACK PEPPER CRAB

All hail the Singapore favourite—Black Pepper Crab. The black pepper sauce that the crab is drenched in boasts a harmonious blend of flavours—what you can expect is a subtle sweetness followed by a fiery kick of spice.

Delicious as it is, the black pepper crab does pack a potent punch of piquancy so you may wish to stick to the other equally tasty options if you aren’t one who handle spiciness well!

AUTHENTIC SINGAPORE CHILI CRAB

Chili Crab may be a dish that all Singaporeans are familiar with but the one at Spice Brasserie is one you still have to try.

The luscious chilli crab sauce is full-flavoured and we particularly love how Executive Chef Chuah didn’t go easy on the spice, ensuring the most authentic taste and nothing less.

Besides plenty of crab dishes, Spice Brasserie boasts a multitude of other seafood-centric dishes that you can look forward to.

BAKED HOKKAIDO OYSTER

The baked Hokkaido oyster is sure to please all fans of oysters—imagine slurping down creamy oysters that are flame-grilled with Hollandaise sauce.

Many may think that this is a heavy item that you’d get sick of after just one or two pieces, but the light Hollandaise sauce complemented the oysters perfectly such that the harmony of flavours left us in awe and had us reaching for a second serving.

HOMEMADE LOBSTER BAO

The chefs at Spice Brasserie has once again surprised us with their creativity by going all out to make their dishes as interesting as possible. Giving lobsters a unique and modern twist is the Homemade Lobster Bao.

Expect a generous portion of diced lobster meat mixed with swiss mushrooms and chives, enveloped within a crispy, golden-brown popiah skin. The end result? A myriad of textures present in a single dish so amazing you would regret not stuffing yourself silly with this.

STEAMED BAMBOO CLAM WITH MINCED GARLIC CHILI LIME

For a main that will go easy on your palates, opt for the steamed bamboo clam with minced garlic chilli lime.

Delicate, silky smooth and extremely succulent, the minced garlic chilli lime that sits on top of each bamboo clam gives an extra dimension of flavours in addition to the natural sweetness that the steamed bamboo clam carries.

WOK BRAISED LIVE DRUNKEN KING PRAWNS

Diners can look forward to the live stations at Spice Brasserie where freshwater prawns are caught right before being cooked, assuring that you get only the freshest catch and nothing less.

The Wok Braised Live Drunken King Prawns will impress even the most discerning of taste buds—the intense richness of the Hua Diao wine that is used for the stock boasts an unparalleled fragrance with a subtle alcohol aftertaste.

WOK BRAISED LIVE SAN HAR KING PRAWNS NOODLE

Should you be looking for something more comforting yet indulgent, hop over to the live station where a chef will whip up a fragrant serving of Wok Braised Har King Prawns Noodle in front of you.

Featuring fresh, plump prawns amidst silky smooth noodles in a bowl of rich herbal soup that is subtly sweet, this dish was a unanimous favourite. It felt like we returned home to a bowl of comforting noodles after a long day of work.

NYONYA BAKED WHOLE MACKEREL FILLET

Cooked and served whole, the Nyonya Mackerel Fillet is fresh and nothing short of flavourful. The mackerel fillet remains delicately moist despite being baked whole and we love how it is lavishly doused in Assam chilli.

The Gifts of the Sea buffet dinner is available from now until 30 September 2018 through Thursdays to Sundays. Quote ‘ladyironchef’ to enjoy Spice Brasserie’s Gift of The Sea Buffet at S$108++ for 2 pax (U.P. S$65/ adult, S$32.50/ child) – valid until 31 August 2018.

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.

ENTERTAINMENT FOR EVERYONE IN THE FAMILY

When it comes to Sunday Champagne Brunch at Melt Café, everything is spot on and we are talking about more than just the food. To elevate your dining experience, diners also get to interact with a magician who will perform numerous magic tricks to entertain you and your guests.

Parents will also be delighted to know that they will be able to relax and enjoy their brunch and drinks while their little ones are kept entertained in the Little Fan Land. The interactive kids’ room is equipped with soft toys, finger snacks, desserts, a movie screening and colouring stations for your kiddos.

Hotel buffets need not be the most extravagant and fancy; we are happy if the food is good and the price is reasonable. Royale at Mercure Singapore Bugis has constantly been on our list of affordable buffet spreads in Singapore since its opening and we are giving you another reason to love them.

For the next three months, Royale is going to pay tribute to Asia’s dynamic flavours. The new Rasa Sayang BBQ Buffet is the next buffet with local spread to try. It is super value-for-money and it is like enjoying all your favourites at Chomp Chomp Food Centre in a comfortable air-conditioned environment for just one price.

From 01 June to 26 August 2018, indulge in a huge array of local goodies which features an extravagant lineup of over 30 local and Asian delights. You may quote ‘ladyironchef’ to enjoy 30% off the buffet upon making reservations from Sundays to Thursdays, and 20% off on Fridays and Saturdays. Do note that the discounts are not applicable on Father’s Day, Eve and Public Holidays and it is limited to a maximum of only 10 diners per booking.

DO IT YOURSELF STATION—ROJAK

Rojak is a dish that needs no further introduction. In Malay, ‘rojak’ is a word that means ‘mixture’. In Singapore, ‘rojak’ is a local “salad”. Essentially a salad tossed in sweet sauce, rojak compromises dough fritters, turnips, pineapples, cucumbers and jellyfish.

Look forward to the D.I.Y. rojak station at Royale where you can customise your rojak to your own liking. We like the sound of unlimited D.I.Y. rojak because it means we can add as many pineapple and dough fritters as we please!

OUTDOOR BBQ STATION

This time, Royale at Mercure Singapore Bugis has taken their buffet spread a notch up by featuring a live barbecue station outdoors. Think your favourite BBQ seafood stalls from Chomp Chomp, but even better because this is free flow!

You can indulge in a myriad of barbecued food items, which include ayam panggam, grilled squid, 3 different varieties of satays and everyone’s favourite grilled sambal stingray!

Just think about the value you are getting for the price you are paying—at your typical hawker centres, you pay an average of S$12 per sambal stingray; you pay S$26.60++ (on weekdays) here for endless servings. Isn’t it unbelievable?!

DO IT YOURSELF STATION—ASIAN BAO-WICH

Royale has decided to redefine ‘kong ba bao’. Choose from not 1, but 3 different types of meats.

Besides the classic Braised Five Spice Pork Belly, Royale also offers diners Nyonya Chicken and Black Pepper Beef fillings that sit in between soft, pillowy steamed mantou buns.

While the fatty and mildly sweet pork belly is surely a crowd-pleaser, we sang nothing but praises for the Nyonya Chicken, which had a really nice crispy skin. The Black Pepper Beef was well-marinated and came with a hint of spice, although the heat is not lip-smacking so children can enjoy this dish as can everyone else.

FRIED KWAY TEOW

Fried Kway Teow may not be what you’d expect to get at a hotel buffet but you would be thankful for this delight at Royale.

The Fried Kway Teow at Royale boasts smoky and robust flavours and every mouthful of this char kway teow is bursting with a complex charred aroma. This station will definitely be one that Singaporeans will be making multiple rounds to.

HAR CHEONG GAI

Trust us when we say that Royale’s version of Singaporeans’ favourite Har Cheong Gai is insanely addictive. The crispy and succulent prawn paste chicken is richly marinated in shrimp paste and just the aroma of this dish alone is enough to whet your appetite.

Royale has executed this dish so brilliantly such that die-hard fans of prawn paste chicken will definitely be pleased. 

WOK FRIED SALTED EGG YOLK PRAWNS 

Here in Singapore, we take our food trends seriously. The salted egg yolk trend is undisputedly one that will last for a long time and it is dishes such as the Wok Fried Salted Egg Yolk Prawns at Royale that keeps this food trend alive.

Royale’s rendition of salted egg yolk prawns definitely did not disappoint—the prawns were beautifully coated with a creamy, rich and piquant salted egg yolk coating which came with a hint of spiciness.

PAPER BAG OVEN-BAKED LAKSA CHICKEN

Having been marinated for 24 hours before being roasted in a paper bag, the tender meat of the chicken is a showstopper in its own right, especially when complemented with the luscious broth.

Royale’s version of the Singapore laksa broth differs slightly from the traditional ones—made with a blend of seven spices, the laksa broth which the chicken is doused in is rich and fragrant, bursting with a distinct spicy coconut flavour.

Every piece of chicken you have would have locked in the was creamy and full-flavoured laksa broth, making the tender chicken surprisingly flavourful.

SNAPPER FISH HEAD CURRY

The Fish Head Curry at Royale is a slightly tangier version and less spicy than what we had hoped for it to be, but it left an impression on us anyway. We were pleasantly surprised by the strong aroma and richness of the curry despite it being slightly watery.

Coupled with a variety of vegetables such as lady’s fingers and brinjal, this is one hearty dish that stood out in the line-up and is one that will make us return to the buffet for.

TRADITIONAL DESSERTS

Royale’s Rasa Sayang BBQ Buffet includes not just their usual sweet treats but also a repertoire of traditional local desserts which come with a modern twist.

Look forward to items such as Durian Crème Brûlée, Coconut Custard Tart and an assortment of Nonya Kueh—every one of their desserts is made fresh in-house. Don’t miss out on the classic Pandan Chiffon Cake sweetened with a layered of fluffy marshmallow, inspired by the nostalgic ice cream sandwich.

There is also a D.I.Y. Chendol station which will be part of the buffet spread—customise your dream chendol and end off your meal with this icy treat!

From 01 June to 26 August 2018, indulge in a huge array of local goodies which features an extravagant lineup of over 30 local and Asian delights. You may quote ‘ladyironchef’ to enjoy 30% off the buffet upon making reservations from Sundays to Thursdays, and 20% off on Fridays and Saturdays. Do note that the discounts are not applicable on Father’s Day, Eve and Public Holidays and it is limited to a maximum of only 10 diners per booking.

The Carvery is known for its fine selection of premium meat roasts that feature whole chickens, dry-aged ribeye roasts as well as pork belly with the most unbelievable crackling—all that accompanied by an elaborate entourage of seasonings and sauces.

But roast delights aside, what you really must try is their Aglio Olio pasta cooked à la minute at the pasta live station.

Presenting a diverse and interactive dining experience, Pan Pacific Singapore’s Edge remains, till this day, one of our all-time favourite weekend brunch spots in the city.

A multifaceted buffet restaurant that goes over the edge—in every sense of the word—with 7 interactive live food theatres, 16 food stations (at least) and one epic dessert spread, Edge constantly pushes the boundaries to what most people would envision as a ‘typical’ buffet and their revamped Theatrical Sunday Champagne Brunch is no exception.

Calling all brunch lovers, come 25 March 2018, gather your family and loved ones for a refreshed selection of gourmet items that are made better with unlimited Veuve Clicquot Champagne, an all-new botanical gin bar, a new food station and even live band performances that the whole family can enjoy.

Where do we begin? Whether its Peranakan, Chinese, Japanese, Northern Indian, Singaporean and/or delights from as far as the Pacific region, champagne brunch will be redefined at Edge. And just for our readers, we are giving you the opportunity to dine like royalty without breaking the bank that much.

From 25 March to 24 June 2018, simply quote ‘ladyironchef’ to enjoy a complimentary upgrade to unlimited Veuve Clicquot Rosé Champagne (usual price at S$208++ per diner) for diners who opt for the S$188++ unlimited Veuve Clicquot Brut Yellow Label Champagne price, as well as a 10% discount on the S$128++ brunch price that includes unlimited fresh juices, soft drinks, coffee and tea.

WHOLE BABY LAMB TACO STATION

One station at Edge’s Sunday Brunch buffet line-up that will surely leave avid meat eaters in total awe is the whole baby lamb taco—that’s right, we literally mean a whole baby lamb.

Carved fresh upon request, the slithers of succulent lamb are first bathed in a sauce made from its own drippings before being plated and served. Upon receiving it, you can either choose to have the aromatic lamb on its own or construct your very own lamb taco using the crispy tortilla shells and various sauces and salsas.

Roasted to a gorgeous pink hue, the meat was tender and succulent beyond belief and we loved how the bright, zesty qualities of the pico de gallo salsa complemented the natural gaminess of the lamb really well.

Other than the Whole Baby Lamb Taco station, there’s a new live station which offers Shaved Chuck Roast that comes served with potato churros and a garlic aioli dip.

PREMIUM SEAFOOD ON ICE

What would a champagne brunch be without a fresh seafood station filled with fresh crustaceans and oysters?

Over at Edge, their range of fresh seafood offerings may not be vast but for what they lack in variety, they sure make up for in quality. Expect to slurp up some of the freshest seasonal oysters. The snow crab legs are amazingly sweet as well.

Fresh fish tartare and ceviche are also available should you desire something that packs a mean flavour punch.

GIANT BEEF BURGER

Get your cameras ready because this is one titan of a burger that demands to be shared on the ‘gram’. Essentially a beef burger, this Big Mac on steroids boasts a thick beef patty cooked medium-rare, slices of cheese, sweet onion relish and a layer of lettuce for some crunch.

NORTHERN INDIAN STATION

Amongst all the many food stations that have impressed us over the years, the Northern Indian station has got to be our ultimate go-to. Comprising a plethora of curries, chutneys, and tandoori offerings, this is one spread not to be missed.

The tandoori red snapper is a relatively new addition to the spread that sees a whole snapper covered entirely in spices and baked. Mildy charred on the outside with a heady aroma of toasted tandoori spices, the flesh in the middle retains its moist and flaky integrity—delicious!

SEASONAL TROLLIES SERVED TABLE-SIDE

Something unique about Edge’s champagne brunch is the seasonal trollies. Serving up fresh catches of the week—be it fish, meat or seafood—these roving trollies stop table-side and depending on how much you want, the chefs will carve up portions accordingly.

A tad similar to the practice at many an old-school dim sum restaurants, we like the excitement derived from never knowing what to expect from these roving trollies each time we visit.

DESSERT THEATRE

If you have kids, you can bet that the first stop they will be making is the desserts corner. Massive, vibrant and chockful of sweet treats, make no mistake that this is one station where parents have zero jurisdiction over their kids.

Replete with a magnificent display of cakes, tarts, puddings, jellies, chocolates, kuehs and so much more, Edge’s dessert station is undoubtedly the best around. There is even a waffle station and exclusively for their Sunday brunch, a chocolate lava cake station and a cotton candy machine as well!

No, really. The adults will go crazy too!

BOTANICAL GIN STATION

Now, this is the best part about Edge’s revamped champagne brunch—Botanical Gin Station. Gin connoisseurs, it’s as if the G&T Gods have answered your prayers with the restaurant’s very first gin bar that houses 7 different gin labels—namely the greats such as Hendricks, Monkey 47 and our personal favourite, Tanqueray No. 10.

To up your gin and tonic game, you can also pick and choose from an array of fresh ripe fruits, citrus and botanicals such as thyme, grapefruit, raspberries, strawberries and more!

UNLIMITED BEER, CHAMPAGNE & GIN

What would a gathering of friends, family or loved ones be without a little booze to get you in the right mood? For all the adults (thank God that we are legal because alcohol > playgrounds), be sure to help yourselves to endless amounts of beer, champagne, and gin.

From 25 March to 24 June 2018, don’t forget to quote ‘ladyironchef’ to enjoy a complimentary upgrade to unlimited Veuve Clicquot Rosé Champagne (usual price at S$208++ per diner) for diners who opt for the S$188++ unlimited Veuve Clicquot Brut Yellow Label Champagne price, as well as a 10% discount on the S$128++ brunch price that includes unlimited fresh juices, soft drinks, coffee and tea.

ENTERTAINMENT FOR ADULTS AND KIDS

There is entertainment for both adults and kids. A live band will serenade you while you luxuriate in brunch; as for the kids, a balloon artist will be going around from table to table and have balloons sculpted for every little one.

It is really more than just food and alcohol, you all!
