Advanced reservation is highly recommended as Equinox is always fully booked! Based on my past experience, higher chance of getting the seat is between 2 weeks to 1 month reservation in advance.



Hey guys, if you want to impress your date or celebrate any special occasion, this Pink Brunch Buffet at Equinox that I review here will definitely make most gals happy cos there will be a live band playing from the mezzanine (comtemporary accoustic songs), a roving on-the-floor magician, Pink balloons, Pink dessert counter and Pink buffet counter set up, photo session with the Pink Panther (who will move from table to table), the reception staff will dress in Pink and the servers will wear a Pink tie too! So it's like a fairy tale experience that most gals can only dream of!


Follow the signs to reach the lobby that will bring you to Equinox at level 70 if there is no one at the reception at level 1.



Equinox Reception





Once past the reception counter, you'll walk through a long winding corridor...





Reaching this dark lift lobby... Take the lift up to level 70!



View from reception at level 70. The restaurant is actually one level down


Multi-leveled seating areas




Choose a window seat if you'd like to enjoy the awesome view. (But do be warned that it does get quite hot during the day)





A magnificent view of the city and bay area awaits you!



Pink Gerbera Daisies on every table



This is the MAIN reason for the Pink Brunch
Free-flowing Moët & Chandon Rosé Impérial

                 
Even the way the server poured the champagne into the glass was so professional!


Thirsty yet?


Free Flow Juices
Orange and Mango Juices here



Cappucino


Live Band from the mezzanine




Roving Magician
                  
                   
There were two magicians who split up and covered the entire floor, going to each table to perform a few magic tricks and I must say they were really good. The magician was right in front our eyes but we just couldn't see any loopholes in their magic. Well done and kudos to the magicians! Truly entertaining!



Pink Panther
The staff will bring the Pink Panther out to every table and help to take a polaroid for you! They will give you the complimentary polaroid at the end of buffet! Cute gesture!


A Plethora of Dessert!! Favourite Place for the Ladies!










Beautiful Rose Mousse Dessert






































Pink Chocolate Fountain

The Pink Panther
















Dessert Live Station




This was a very exquisite dessert. I'm not sure what exactly is this, but there was a very fragrant earl grey tea at the bottom of this jar, with some raspberry and cream + aloe vera jelly atop in the shooter glass. It's a chilled dessert with dry ice effect that made this whole dessert look very cool and the overall combination tasted great! Remember to try this if you see this at their dessert live station!






Pork Knuckle


Classic Yorkshire Pudding


Beef


Potatoes and Mushroom


Salmon


Asparagus


Steamed Vegetables


Sausages and Lamb Stew



Stir Fry Prawns and Barramundi with Saffron Sauce





Chicken Adobo


Smoked Duck Breast


Special Fried Rice


Cold Cuts


Salads






Cheese












Seafood On Ice










Cured Salmon Platter





Lobster Roulade (Must-Try!)

Lobster roll topped with watermelon and caviar. What an exquisite starter!



Sushi Selection



Soba Noodles



1st Complimentary: Cauliflower Soup
This is their signature soup! So far this is the BEST cauliflower soup that I've had so far. 




2nd Complimentary: Foie Gras
The foie gras here were smooth and melt in the mouth!!


3rd Complimentary: Pork Belly




Overall Impression: The service here is constantly good! I feel that the food and dessert quality is slightly better during their weekday semi-lunch buffet than the Sunday brunch buffet. However, if we're to compare overall ambience + dining experience, this Sunday brunch buffet wins with the additional of complimentary dishes surprises brought to your table, there's magicians going around each table performing live magic tricks, a excellent live band, polaroid with the pink panther etc.. 

There were also quite many people especially guys wearing in Pink that day, so join in the fun and dress in Pink to this brunch buffet! This is truly a one-of-a-kind experience. So if you're planning to have a fun time with good food, this is definitely my recommendation! 


*Recommended*

* Please note that the items shown were available during the Pink Brunch. Pink Panther polaroid is not available during the regular sunday brunch.
