(CLOSED) Weekend Brunch @ Salt Tapas & Bar (Raffles City)

It's been a really long time since I've found an impressive brunch spot and I'm beyond ecstatic that Salt Tapas & Bar has rolled out a brunch menu that left me in a severe but happy food coma. Trust me, the extensive menu will have you staring at it for a long time because you simply can't decide what to order! You know a restaurant is legit when you've been there three times, and you're blown away every single time.

While the facade of the restaurant might suggest hefty prices, I'm pleased to be the bearer of good news that brunch here is unbelievably affordable. The Eggs Berentine, a playful merger of eggs benedict and eggs florentine, is a solid outfit of flawlessly poached eggs, ham, spinach and dashi-infused hollandaise atop housemade muffins. And it carries a proud price tag of $14. Did I shock you? Oh, wait till you finish going through this post.

Pasta Fresca Da Salvatore @ Boat Quay

With a long history of 28 years, three outlets and 336 pasta dishes under their belt, it's no wonder that Pasta Fresca is a household name when it comes to Italian cuisine. As you may already have guessed from the name of the restaurant, Pasta Fresca is widely known for their range of pasta dishes. However, did you know that they do a pretty mean steak and yummy pizzas too?

Chinese New Year Luncheon @ Pan Pacific Singapore

The Chinese New Year Luncheon was quite an extravagant affair which started with an energetic lion dance performance with Pan Pacific Singapore's very own "lions", followed by various other performances on stage while signature dishes from all the properties under Pan Pacific Hotel Group were served. An adorable monkey from Pan Pacific Singapore arrived at our table, and he brought golden baby abalones and crispy whitebait fish with him, sending the entire ballroom into a joyous cheer as everyone tossed to a prosperous year ahead.

Easter Sunday Brunch @ The Knolls (Capella Singapore)

Capella Singapore brings you an extraordinary Easter on 27th March which comprises a lavish brunch, a live cooking show by Guest Chef Fabien Pairon who will be whipping up his famous inspired creations of Charcuterie and French Fusion Cuisine, and an exciting Easter egg hunt which will send guests on a promising quest to fill up their baskets with eggs that contain attractive prizes. I heard a one night stay at the opulent Garden Villa is up for grabs!

Gemmills @ 110 Amoy Street

Head to 110 Amoy Street and you might be surprised that you can't locate Gemmills. Do not fret though, simply make your way around to the back of the row of shophouses and you'll find Gemmills sitting pretty.

Mellben Signature - Delightful Tze Char at Tanjong Pagar Plaza

Mellben is irrefutably one of the hottest names in town when it comes to crabs or tze char. I've been to Mellben once in 2012, and I fell so deeply in love with the soup of their claypot crab bee hoon that I insisted on taking away the rest of the soup, so that I could have it for supper. I haven't been back since because the north just seems too far for me. Hence, you can imagine my happiness when I learnt that they now have an outlet at Tanjong Pagar!

St. Patrick’s Day Street Festival @ Boat Quay & Circular Road

Running its course from 17th - 20th March, the street parade promises a truckload of fun filled with live performances, great music, family-friendly activities such as face painting and balloon sculpting, and all things Irish.

#NextJenArt (Mural Painting by Parents Parents) @ Hotel Jen Tanglin

In February, Hong Kong Art Collective, Parent Parents, flew to Singapore and painted several walls in Hotel Jen Tanglin. Diners had the chance to watch the artists paint graffiti live in J65 while enjoying a sumptuous buffet spread. My dining partner and I also took the opportunity to snap a photo with the pretty wall.

Lai Huat Signatures @ Far East Square

Lai Huat Signatures is a casual dining tze char restaurant in the heart of the central business district. It proves to be a great place for after-work gatherings and regulars can now get a taste of their favourite Sambal Fish at a more centralised location, instead of having to go all the way to East Coast!
