CÉ LA VI
Heading for champagne brunch is a quintessential highend Singapore experience, and it doesn't get much more iconic than The Brunch Club at CÉ LA VI. Situated on the rooftop of Marina Bay Sands, this sleek spot enjoys sweeping views of Singapore and a cooling cross-breeze.
While not strictly adults only, it's certainly aimed at the sophisticated palate and crowd, with a resident DJ spinning relaxed tunes. And being held on Saturdays (and Sundays), it's ideal for parents wanting to leave the kids with the babysitter for an afternoon of nosh, sips and conversation.
CÉ LA VI hosts an à la carte dining experience with freeflow Telmont Réserve Brut NV champagne, cocktails, beer and wine an additional $118 per person. The cocktail list is on point - we enjoyed Aperol spritzes, negronis and espresso martinis during our afternoon sitting.
Food-wise we started with freshly shucked seasonal oysters with ponzu dill oil, marinated octopus chargrilled to perfection, and delicate tempura zucchini flowers with furikake and kizami wasabi-all washed down with champagne, of course.
Turning to the main event, we paired melt-in-themouth Stony River Black Angus tenderloin with braised red cabbage relish and yuzu beef jus with a side of silky, sautéed mushrooms and a crisp romaine endive salad.
And we couldn't resist a serve of black truffle fries dusted with parmesan. The line-caught red snapper sitting in a flavourful laksa, ebi shrimp oil and celeriac coconut purée was a highlight.
After a digestion pause, we ordered the celebration platter with fresh fruit, Madagascan vanilla ice cream and petite chocolates. This is a must-order for the culinary theatre of the dry ice volcano billowing steam.
