The Knolls @ Capella Hotel Singapore

IMG_2732ed

Featuring some of the finest Mediterranean delicacies, Sunday brunch buffet at The Knolls is filled with a bustling vibe in the air. In felt as if I have stepped into a secret garden in Sentosa and chanced upon a garden party. In conjunction with the upcoming Mothers' Day, The Knolls will be transforming the restaurant into a garden of flowers for the Mother's Day Brunch on 11 May 2014, where guests can design and create their own floral bouquets for their mothers.

Executive Chef David Senia will also be introducing some seasonal highlights for the Mother's Day Sunday Brunch such as the Fresh White Asparagus with Caviar, Spring Vegetable Tarte Potagere, Slow Roast Dutch Milk-fed Veal Chop and even the delectable dessert spread will include an assortment of floral themed desserts.

Fresh White Asparagus with Caviar 4.2/5

The Fresh White Asparagus paired with poached egg and caviar was excellent. It thought it was quite an interesting combination but not overpowering, allowing the natural sweetness of the white asparagus to shine on its own.

Spring Vegetable Tarte Potagere 4/5

The Spring Vegetable Tarte Potagere is like a beautiful floating garden on a tart. It was so pretty that I hesitated in eating it. The vegetables had a nice crunchy bite. Drizzled a bit of the tomato sauce to give it a more tangy flavour.

Slow Roast Dutch Milk-fed Veal Chop 4.2/5

The Slow Roast Dutch Milk-fed Veal Chop is a good change from the usual roasted beef. The pale pinkish meat was extremely tender and succulent.

Oysters 4.8/5

Foie Gras Lollipop 4.2/5

Upon enteringThe Knolls, I could not help noticing the fresh Oysters and Foie Gras Lollipop among the eclectic buffet spread. The Oysters were from the Belon River in  France, a five generations oysters company, Les Huitres Cadoret. There were also free flow foie gras that was popping good, I simply couldn't hold back popping it into my mouth while making my way back to my table.

Dessert 4.5/5

Many will know that I am not a big fan for desserts. Surprisingly I had more than I usually eat at The Knolls. The desserts were not only pretty in presentation but they were not overly sweet. I disliked desserts that are too sweet. In short, the dessert creations at The Knolls infused with different floral elements are well balanced, distinctive and most important delicious.

Besides the free flow food, drinks and wine. There will also be musicians going around the restaurant belting out beautiful musics. It was such a relax and happy atmosphere that we even have customers dancing to the rhythm. Sunday can't be any better with great food, drink and music.
