There’s brunch and then there’s BRUNCH, and when we’re talking about the latter, Singapore certainly serves up some showstoppers.
We’re talking about the kind of brunch that might be on a rooftop, in a glitzy hotel restaurant or crafted by a top chef and some of his mates. It’s likely a brunch that you’ll want to dress a little fancier for, but you’ll be rewarded with free-flowing bevvies and even better nosh.
If all of that sounds up your street, Urban List has rounded up the best spots for brunch in Singapore.
