Lime restaurant and bar at PARKROYAL on Pickering recently launched their Sunday Brunch in June. I ate there with my wife and son a few weeks back.

The brunch features a vast international buffet selection and the option of free flow Piper Heidsieck Champagne.

We found ourselves spoilt for choice!
The food was good and so was the service. I find the pricing value-for-money, considering the wide buffet selection and the restaurant’s location in a high end hotel.
PARKROYAL on Pickering is Singapore’s first hotel-in-a-garden and was named as Hotel of the Year 2013 by World Architecture News (WAN) in the prestigious annual WAN Awards.
I like the floor-to-ceiling glass windows at Lime which amplify light and space, giving you a feel of enjoying your food al fresco when you are actually indoor in air-con comfort.

Situated on street level, Lime can be accessed directly from Pickering Street, and via the PARKROYAL on Pickering lobby.
Here are three reasons why you should try Lime’s Sunday Brunch:
1. Free flow of lobsters, oysters, tiger prawns and other seafood delicacies:
Seafood and sashimi section
2. Free flow of foie gras:
Pan-seared foie gras served with passionfruit sauce and sweet pear
3. Free flow of macaroons:
Assorted macaroons and kueh lapis
Just these three items are sufficient to keep me satisfied.
Available every Sunday from 12pm to 3pm, the indulgent brunch features an impressive line-up of culinary delights including Mushroom Risotto, Herb-Crusted Cod Fillet, Foie Gras Terrine and an array of twelve European Cheeses.

The brunch was a pleasant setting for Rachel and I to enjoy a lazy Sunday afternoon with Asher. With sumptuously soft sofa seating to sink into, overlooking a beautiful tree-lined walkway, you may find yourself glued to the seat at Lime for much longer than you anticipated. That was what happened to Rachel and I.
The restaurant feels so cosy
We arrived at 12 noon and found ourselves sitting there, enjoying our meal leisurely till 3pm when the buffet ended. Asher fell asleep in his stroller by then while Rachel and I sipped cappuccinos and flipped through the Sunday newspapers from the bar.

Lime comes highly recommended if you are looking for a place to have an intimate brunch outing with a group of friends or a celebratory feast for the entire family.
