Weekends are made for spoiling ourselves, and that’s exactly what we plan on doing. Here are 14 lavish brunch buffets at Singapore’s hotels that certainly don’t scrimp on the fresh seafood spreads and tender meat carvings – all you have to do is grab a plate, and keep going back for seconds.

When we head over to a buffet, we’re determined to get our money’s worth. So when you’re at Basilico, there’s every reason to make return trips to their dedicated foie gras counter. The foie gras is pan-seared on the spot, so you can expect it to be crisp on the outside but buttery soft as your teeth sink in.
But before you fill up on the foie gras, take a little of everything. There are 50 hard and soft Italian cheeses including generous shares of buffalo mozzarella and burrata cheese, chilled seafood like fresh lobster and crabs, as well as a carving station with roasted turkey and lamb.
The dessert table is just as crowded with a variety of cakes, mousse, and tarts, so you’ll be ending off brunch on a sweet note.

Parkroyal on Pickering is one of the CBD’s most recognisable building with greenery spilling everywhere, but with its restaurant Lime, now you’ve got all the more reason to head down. Sample their fresh Fine de Claire Oysters, Maine Lobsters, and King Crab during your Sunday brunch here.
This brunch will definitely outdo all others with their generous serves of fresh lobster meat, found in dishes such as their 65 Degree Sous-vide Egg with Lobster and Lobster Hokkien Noodles.

But save some room for their Matcha Chocolate Fondue Fountain, especially when you get to soak up all that matcha goodness with marshmallows and gummy bears. There’ll also be other desserts like mini Magnum ice cream and muah chee up for grabs.

While they’ve got a fresh seafood spread – which comes with fresh lobsters and oysters – they’ve also got an a la carte menu of tasting platters. These tasting platters are part of the buffet and made-to-order, so you can order as many as you can chow down. Some choices include pan-seared scallops and pan-fried duck foie gras on brioche.
For those who are after conventional breakfast dishes, there are also Eggs Benedict and Eggs En Cocotte (baked eggs). Champagne comes free-flow, as do Bloody Mary Cocktails, so knock yourself out.

Having a buffet brunch at Brasserie Les Saveurs isn’t anything like your typical brunch affair. It starts with a complimentary hour of aperitifs at the Astor Bar from 11AM to 12PM, where you can pick out a cocktail or two. While this restaurant has a massive display of seafood on ice – Boston lobsters, langoustines, oysters, and clams – it also does justice to its savoury, cooked dishes.
You’re certainly welcome to walk around to admire the buffet spread, but there’ll also be dishes that are “passed-around”, meaning that the waiter will come around to your table to serve up bites like French Scallop Carpaccio and Yellowfin Tuna Confit. But wait up, you’ve also got a choice to make for your main – this place goes all out and offers a buffet and main course.

There’s so much food at Oscar’s at Conrad Centennial Singapore that you’ll be tempted to grab a bit of everything. And we mean everything, from an organic egg station that comes with a huge array of toppings – like smoked salmon, foie gras, and pulled braised brisket – to a charcoal BBQ station with lobsters.

There’s also a salad bar that stretches on for 4 metres, filled with 30 or so bowls of fresh produce including chia seeds, quinoa, and pomegranate seeds. But save some space for dessert, especially when there’s Liquid Nitrogen Sorbet that comes in unique flavours like pineapple and sweet potato.

This particular brunch is just for the adults – it’s go heavy or go home with their copious amounts of alcohol. From craft cocktails to boozy milkshakes, there’s much to drink here, but don’t worry: there’s also plenty to feast on. Their delicatessen counter offers a solid selection of salads, cold cuts, and freshly-baked breads but the seafood spread with oysters and Maine lobsters is what goes best with cocktails.

So much seafood at Mandarin Gallery’s Triple Three – all those King Crab pincers, mussels, and oysters waiting to be devoured. But don’t worry if you’re not a fan of seafood, there are plenty of live stations here, so can eat your share of teppanyaki, roast meats, dim sum, Indian curries – the list goes on and on.
Even though it’s a buffet, the food almost looks too pretty to eat when it’s plated like this Pan-seared Scallop with Avocado Puree.

Once you’ve had your share of savouries, dive straight into the dessert offerings. Take a giant slab of Blackforest Cake that’s oozing chocolate cherry goodness or try the more exotic Yuzu Sponge Cake.
