There’s something amazing going on at Grand Copthorne Waterfront every Sunday and we had just experienced it for ourselves! It is none other than the most extensive Borderless Sunday Brunch! The Integrated Dining Destination encompasses the interactive buffet restaurant, Food Capital, contemporary Italian grill, Grissini, as well as dynamic bar, Tempo. Every Sunday, guests get to enjoy THREE different dining experiences in a span of THREE hours! There is live entertainment and lovely balloon sculptures by their balloonist and face painting is also available by their professional face painters. You can choose to dine indoors or alfresco where you can appreciate the stunning view of the historic Singapore River. We have rounded up a list of Top 10 Must Try Food at Grand Copthorne Waterfront’s Borderless Sunday Brunch!
1. SEAFOOD ON ICE
Start your epicurean journey with Asian and international fare at Food Capital. We recommend the seafood on ice specials especially the poached main lobster. Very meaty and succulent! Others include the freshly shucked Irish and Canadian oysters, chilled tiger prawns, New Zealand mussels and mud crab and scallop with roe.
2. ROTISSERIE
Feast your senses at the interactive show kitchens where food is prepared “live” using fresh ingredients and original recipes. A selection of prime, veal and pork ribs are available at the Rotisserie station. Juicy cuts that are fall off the bone! Eat with your fingers for a finger lickin’ good experience!
3. PAN-SEARED FOIE GRAS
Free flow foie gras? Need I say more? Take all my money! These melt-in-the-mouth foie gras will send you straight to heaven.
4. INDIAN CURRY AND TANDOOR
I am fan of Indian food but seldom have it because the hubs can’t really take spicy food. Imagine my excitement when I saw mutton curry, sambal prawns and naan! I relished every bite and it’s a sin not to eat the naan with curry!
5. LAKSA
Another spicy favorite of mine! The laksa broth was full-bodied, and served in a giant cup, made it hard to resist slurping some of that delicious broth!
6. JOSPER OVEN-GRILLED MEATS
It was impossible for us to stay away once we found out about the Josper oven-grilled meats located outdoors. The Josper oven combines oven and grill in one and is fired by charcoal and flavoured wood to bring out the aroma and texture of the ingredients. Expect moist, juicy meat with a nice crisp exterior! Delicious grilled meats include baby spring chicken, Australian rack of lamb, prime wagyu beef ribeye, Mediterranean octopus and king prawns. There are three sauces to go with the grilled meats and we recommend the sun-dried tomato sauce.
7. LOBSTER LINGUINE
I enjoyed watching one of the Chefs prepare my lobster linguine on the spot. Loved the fresh sweet chunks of Boston lobster meat and al dente linguine!
8. PIZZA WITH BLACK TRUFFLE PASTE
Instead of tomato sauce, white pizza is typically made of ricotta and mozzarella. Topped with black truffle paste, the white pizza is as good as it gets!
9. NONYA KUEH
The dessert selection is very wide but the nonya kueh was my favorite. Must try the kueh dadar, rainbow kueh lapis, ang ku kueh and kueh lapis!
10. FRUIT SLUSHIES
The buffet is inclusive of free-flow juices and soft drinks. After all that indulgent fare, wash it down with some refreshing fruit slushies! If you can’t decide between strawberry and mango, you can always mix them in a cup, like what I did!
