Even the door leading to the toilet is so attuned to the garden theme.

The lovely infinity pool overlooking the city.





A very enticing entrance to the buffet! This was a star setting.

Mini Rum Baba



They serve Piper Heidsieck champagne for the alcohol brunch..

Here are some of the dishes that captured my wandering taste buds:
One of the best pan seared Foie Gras I've had. Succulent, creamy and rich yet not satiating at all.
Braised Beef Cheek in Red Wine - the beef is so tender and juicy. It's a must try for me.
Cold Station and Sushis

Salads and appetizers

Generally, the Lime's sunday champagne brunch is not about quantity. The food selection is not massive but is neither too few. Having said that though, it's quite certain that there are food stuffs that will be pleasing to the palate even to the most discerning ones. Anyhow, it's but high time that the concept of buffet be transformed into a more worthwhile experience. It's not just about filling your hunger to the brim but rather enjoying the gustatory taste that the food brings. Thus, so long as there are dishes that are worth coming back for more, it's a buffet worth queuing. 

Saboten Special Set - for those who want to try different variations 
Tenderloin Set - see the nice golden brown color of the bread crumbs?
If this is not a completely satisfying meal, I don't know what is. 

 Rawon Surabaya - similar to the peranakan dish Ayam Buah Keluak

Sop Buntut - close to Bulalo or Nilaga of the Philippines



Ayam Bawang - best enjoyed with a squeeze of lime juice




Nasi Goreng Seafood - I surrendered from the hotness of the chili padis that were incorporated into the rice. How I wish my gastric tolerance can take it but my threshold is very low. So, sadly I passed on this one.




Rice with Tempeh, Salted Egg & Keripik

Prive's Ultimate Brekkie, $20 - 2 eggs (any style), pork sausage, maple-roasted bacon, roasted roma tomato, hashbrown, wholemeal toast, sauteed button mushrooms, salad greens
Breakfast of Champions, $11 - scrambled egg, choice of sausage or bacon and toast
Eggs Benedict, $16 - english muffins topped with ham, streaky bacon, poached eggs and hollandaise sauce. This is divine! No matter how sinful it is, you will be left with no choice but to succumb to the goodness of its every bite. I won't mind coming back just for this. It seemed to be popular among diners as we saw a lot of tables ordered this.
