THE BRUNCH LIFE SCENE in most modern food & beverage establishments is getting more exciting. Brunch nowadays isn't just about dining, it’s entertainment for most people to express themselves and it’s becoming a lifestyle.

Brunch, the combination of breakfast and lunch, has become a popular mealtime among many people, particularly on weekends. Across Asia, there are incredible brunch options that offer unique flavors and experiences. But, how does brunch evolve from a simple mealtime into an exciting time to free up yourself while enjoying a meal either alone, with friends, or with your loved one?

Brunch buffets have become a popular dining option for many people looking to enjoy a leisurely meal with friends or family. A great brunch buffet offers a wide selection of delicious dishes, a relaxed atmosphere, and an inviting ambiance that encourages guests to linger and enjoy the experience.

What makes a great brunch buffet?

The key to a great brunch buffet is variety. Guests should be able to find a diverse selection of dishes that cater to different tastes and dietary requirements. Whether it's sweet or savory, hot or cold, vegan or gluten-free, a great brunch buffet should have something for everyone.

In addition to variety, quality is also important. The dishes should be well-prepared, using fresh, high-quality ingredients, and should be visually appealing. A great brunch buffet is not just about the food, but also about the overall experience. The ambiance should be relaxed and welcoming, with comfortable seating, good lighting, and perhaps some live music to enhance the mood.

Finally, a great brunch buffet should offer value for money. Guests should feel that they are getting their money's worth, with a good balance between the price and the quality and quantity of food on offer.

In America, Some diners offers from sweet to savory, whether you’re in the mood for pancakes, waffles, eggs Benedict, or a classic breakfast sandwich, you’re sure to find something to satisfy your cravings. Or we could just get a whole breakfast platter like eggs benedict, bacon, and pancakes with juices in the diner. But when you’re talking about brunch for example in the Middle East or Some countries in Asia, it has a whole different perspective.

I have spent my time when I have free time, especially on the weekend exploring and enjoying with “brunch concept” in Asia. I went to Shangri-La Hotel Dubai with friends to discover their favorite brunch with a “Yum-Cha” concept, “Yum-Cha” is simply enjoying a dumpling paired with a fine tea selection, yet it isn’t only tea, they offer bubbly, wine selection and house beverages. We just sat at the table with free-flow premium hand-crafted dumplings, with all varieties of Dim sum, appetizers, Main courses, and Desserts. The waiter just kept giving whatever was requested by the guests on the menu, it is truly an experience.

Is it just like that? Not quite! In Macao, Sheraton Grand Hotel at level 1 they have a restaurant called “Feast” which is a market-style restaurant with Asian & Portuguese styles of food. This luxury Macao restaurant gave you a vintage vibe with a mouth-watering selection of All you can eat food, an amazing live station, and dessert choices beautifully.
