Expat Living (Singapore)

Alley on 25

- Elena Marie Dick

If, like us, you like to sleep in on Sundays, the hearty “Lazy Breakfast” at Andaz Singapore, starting at 12pm, is the way to go. The attentive staff and impressive buffet spread guarantee a great (late!) start to the day.

What was special about this brunch, which is also available on Saturday, was the option to order freshly prepared à la carte mains to complement the generous buffet options. There was also a DIY cocktail bar – we had a lot of fun mixing our own Aperol spritzes!

The focus is on breakfast classics, ranging from made-to-order cagefree omelettes to crispy bacon and mini jack potatoes. Unique twists on breakfast dishes like bircher muesli add a delightful surprise to the spread. Transition­ing to brunch staples, we indulged in seafood on ice and Asian favourites such as chicken and beef satay, dim sum and yummy dishes from the noodle bar.

As the afternoon progressed, we ordered Alley’s grilled Reuben sandwiches and Sarawak Black Pepper Crab Egg Benedict as our main courses, before ending our culinary journey on a sweet note. My personal favourite was the classic New York cheesecake with Chitose strawberri­es, along with the salted caramel bar and the live waffle station featuring freshly baked Belgian waffles with mango and passionfru­it compote.

Alley on 25 offers a lovely brunch experience that blends classic breakfast comforts with innovative twists, at great value for money ($62 per adult, $31 per child, plus $78 for bottomless Delamotte Champagne, housepour wines, beers, and DIY cocktails).
