A celebrated stalwart in Singapore’s city centre, Pan Pacific Singapore’s multifaceted buffet restaurant, Edge, is one that never fails to take our breath away. Exuding a marvellous theatrical spread, the team of chefs bring to the fore flavours and delicacies from all over the globe with a menu that constantly changes and evolves. With 7 interactive live food theatres, 16 food stations (at least) and over a hundred dishes to choose from, this is one buffet restaurant that’ll push your appetite to the edge—literally.

We’ve always been avid fans of their weekday buffets. And just when we think that things couldn’t get any better, they go and pull off something as incredible as a Sunday brunch that encompasses everything you could ever want in a perfect weekend from a botanical gin cocktail bar stocked with a wide selection of top-tier labels, premium seafood on ice, a temple of desserts and so much more.

There’s something for everyone, even the little ones. From an onsite balloon sculptor to a newly furnished kid’s playroom that comes with their very own buffet spread, games and more, there’s no doubt that your little ones will be in for an epic Sunday. And while the kids are kept entertained, why not indulge even further with unlimited glasses of Veuve Clicquot Champagne, cocktails and G&Ts?

Happening every Sunday from 17th March to 26th May 2019, this feast fit for a king is one that’s worth the splurge. Sundays are for sleeping in for many, but for us, a good brunch trumps the extra hours of shut-eye.

For our readers, you may quote “ladyironchef” upon making reservations to enjoy the non-alcohol package at S$98++ adults, S$49++ Child, or the alcoholic package at S$178++ that’s inclusive of free-flow Veuve Clicquot Champagne.

A SASHIMI LOVER’S DREAM

A heavy hitter among the Japanese food-obsessed, Edge’s Japanese station goes far beyond your typical sushi and miso soup. Segregated into different parts, diners can choose to luxuriate in hearty deep-fried tempura, enjoy soba noodles, chicken karage and more! And don’t even get us started on their wide array of sashimi options.

On weekends, their options go far beyond their usual trio of salmon, tuna and octopus, featuring the likes of hamachi (Japanese amberjack) as well. Hand-sliced upon order, each strip of fish is thick, meaty and fresh-tasting.

TRIO OF FRESH OYSTERS ON THE HALF SHELL

Boasting a wide selection of deliciously sweet premium crustaceans from Alaskan king crabs to Boston lobsters and shellfish of sorts, one can never go wrong by beginning at the seafood on ice station. Oysters are a luxury and you’ll be happy to know that Edge makes available not just one variety, but three.

WHOLE ALASKAN KING CRAB LEG STATION

A new addition to their Sunday brunch lineup is the Whole Alaskan King Crab Leg station where diners can enjoy unlimited servings of this fleshy behemoth of a crab lightly poached in a court bouillon—or in simpler terms, a flavourful, aromatic broth used to poaching fish and shellfish—and served simply with fresh, crispy iceberg lettuce and an velvety smooth mustard butter sauce.

The flavourful broth elevated simply with a few sprigs of fresh herbs, a mirepoix (carrots, onion & celery), bay leaf and white wine, pairs exceptionally well with the sweet crab, giving the crustacean a nice aromatic lift and an even greater depth of flavour.

A SUNDAY ROAST EXPERIENCE

If you’ve never experienced a proper British Sunday roast, Edge will have you wishing for it every weekend. Over at the live carving station, neatly assembled on carving boards in all its colossal, meaty glory is a selection of roast meat delights.

Choose from the Mustard Roast Beef Prime Ribs—served with a side of roasted spuds and a bordelaise jus—, Deep-Fried Whole Spring Chicken with Herbs and Garlic, Lamb Rack with Herb Crust and a Chorizo and Chestnut-stuffed Roast Duck. Hand-carved upon request, every slice glistens and oozes with indescribable succulence. Unless you’re vegetarian, there’s no reason why anybody should give the live carving station a miss.

FLAVOURS OF EUROPE

Taking up residence along the line as you venture past the roast meats and pasta section is a section dedicated to the flavours and signature dishes of Europe. Whether you crave the rich, robust flavours of Spain in the form of a hearty seafood paella or a fancy truffle scented angel hair pasta adorned with caviar, this section has it all.

KIMBERLEY STREET KWAY CHAP

Going with a more Asian-forward lineup, the buffet line sees some pretty new and intriguing additions such as a corner dedicated to the tastes and flavours of Thailand. But perhaps the one station that caught our eye was their new kway chap station, dishing out hearty, flavour-packed bowls of Kimberley Street-style kway chap.

For the uninitiated, this particular style of kway chap originates from Penang, Malaysia where it is a common street food favourite, and it comprises a variety of offal and tender braised duck meat served in a herbal flavoured broth. The dish boasts an aromatic, herbal aroma but is underscored by a meaty, savoury flavour that is oh-so-comforting.

CHARCOAL WAFFLES CORNER

Savoury waffles are totally the in thing right now and what the chefs here have done with their own rendition of the said dish is off the charts. Sitting pretty on a crispy charcoal waffle, a truffle cheese sous vide egg, deep-fried baby squid, sambal Boston lobster, spinach and a spicy hollandaise sauce.

BOTANICAL GIN COCKTAIL STATION

Nothing takes the edge off quite like a refreshing gin & tonic and perhaps one station that’s unique to Edge’s Sunday brunch lineup—and a hit among the grownups—is their botanical gin cocktail bar.

Well-stocked with over 10 labels and a variety of condiments to spice up your G&Ts with, this is, hands down, one of the favourite parts of the entire buffet—for obvious reasons.

KID’S PLAY AREA & KIDS BUFFET LINE

At Edge’s Sunday brunch, there’s truly something for everyone—for the moms, the dads and especially the little ones. A new addition to the restaurant is a fully converted kid’s area that is well stocked with everything from colouring materials, toys and even an onsite balloon sculptor to entertain the little ones while the adults eat.

The area even comes with its own mini buffet line, featuring the likes of nuggets, French fries, Oreo cookies, mini beef sliders and even a cotton candy machine!

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.
