Enjoy a top-notch Italian Sunday Brunch Singapore! In October, LUCE by Davide Giacomelli launched an ‘Italian Bistronomic Champagne Brunch’ featuring free-flow Seafood and Sashimi on Ice, live stations and exciting live music. Thus the famous Sunday Brunch at InterContinental Singapore hotel is finally back, and with a new restaurant concept (replacing Ash & Elm). Along with this delightful addition is a refreshed À la carte menu that will leave guests spoilt for choice.
The brunch features an extensive buffet line of Cold Starters, Hot Specialities, Pinsas, desserts and thrilling live stations. Guests can look forward to a theatrical experience of roasting chestnuts over flaming firewood and freshly-made pasta delicately twirled inside a cheese wheel with the Mafaldine Cacio e Pepe in Parmesan Cheese Wheel. And here follow further details:
An all-time favourite, be treated to unlimited Seafood and Sashimi on Ice which features freshly-shucked oysters, Boston lobster, snow crab leg, tuna sashimi and tiger prawns. Indulge in some of Chef Davide’s Italian delicacies – Gazpacho Di Pomodori – a savoury cold soup and one of chef’s favourite summer recipes, as well as the refreshing Mozzarella and Tomato Skewers. Another chef’s favourite is the Eggs a l’ Amatriciana – the ultimate brunch item featuring a sunny-side up with a perfectly runny yolk smothered in an amazing tomato sauce accented with pancetta and red onions.
Typically called “elephant ear” and the signature dish of Lombardy, Chef Davide presents the stunning Orecchia di Elefante, a bone-in, thinly sliced tender veal meat that is breaded and fried in clarified butter, resulting in an irresistible flavour that is sure to have you coming back for more.
Another speciality would be the Pasta al Forno, or as we like to call it – “Pasta baked the Italian way”. At first glance, it looks like a Lasagna, but dig in, and you will see that, unlike the layered flat lasagne pasta, it features the use of Penne – a differentiating ingredient that is key to beautifully trapping the rich flavours of the Bolognese and silky, creamy béchamel sauce, resulting a full-bodied flavour with every bite.
Other highlights include a variety of hand-tossed Italian Pinsas that features a delicious cloud-like crisp crust – the result of an age-old careful practice of hand-pressing dough. Indulge in classic flavours such as the Margherita and Four Cheese; or fancier creations including the Rustica Pinsa, topped with Scamorza – an Italian cow’s milk cheese with a smokier and nuttier flavour profile that goes perfectly with Bacon, Zucchini and Potato.
Complete the experience with a plethora of desserts handcrafted by Executive Pastry Chef Desmond Lee. Highlights include the well-loved LUCE-misu, a sweet treat made with Mascarpone cream, espresso syrup, lady finger sponge and crunchy feuilletine, Crunchy Choux Pastries, Baked Cheesecake, Crostata Pistachio Strawberry Frangipane and a live dessert station serving up freshly made Crêpes Suzette topped with Caramel Orange Sauce.
