Dazzling Cafe Mì Táng Tǔ Sī Zhuān Mài Diàn Singapore

I had a wonderful experience at the Sunday Brunch at 15 Stamford. It featured a delightful six-course semi-buffet, with some items like seafood offered as single servings, while others, such as small bites and desserts, were available in unlimited quantities. Despite the generous portions, the quality of the food was outstanding. I especially enjoyed the seafood platter; every item was incredibly fresh. The service was excellent, and the ambiance was classy and inviting. I also loved the bar area, which had a lovely selection of charming cocktails. This is definitely a culinary experience worth trying!

I had lunch at this restaurant, having made a reservation for 11:45 AM. Unfortunately, I arrived a few minutes late, only to find out that the restaurant doesn’t actually open until 12:00 PM. I’m confused as to why they allow reservations for a time when they aren’t even open. We were directed to wait in the bar area, but they didn’t offer us any water while we waited. At noon, a staff member came to escort us to our table, but as she was showing us to our seats, another colleague called her away, leaving us standing there without any communication about what would happen next. This lack of service is surprising, especially for a restaurant in a high-end hotel, and I expected much better. On the bright side, the food quality was significantly better than the service, which is why I’m giving it 4 stars. The ambience is also quite nice; the restaurant has a lovely aesthetic.

Had the Sunday brunch at 15 Stamford using the 1-1 vouchers I purchased earlier during Covid period. I initially wanted to use it for Father’s Day but it wasn’t allowed. The brunch is from 12pm onwards and we arrived earlier and were seated at the bar area. A nice posh area for waiting, and we even had complimentary alcoholic fruit punch which was a nice touch. I took the liberty to go around taking photos of the food while waiting for the brunch to start. One not so favorable point here is despite being the second to arrive, we were not seated in that order. I’m not sure what order they gave for people to be seated but I thought it would make sense to have people seated in the order they come, perhaps after like premium status regulars. Nonetheless, we were seated in a very good and comfortable location which was the circular table beside the sushi counter. The ambience was great, and everything looked and felt posh which was deserving of a 5stars hotel. In terms of presentation of the food, you could tell that there was effort in the way the items were stacked and put together. In terms of variety, it wasn’t the most comprehensive but I definitely appreciate the quality. There were the premium cut meat station where you have your ribs, wagyu beef, lamb, venison; pasta station, bread station, cooked food station and soup which was roasted cauliflower soup; sashimi station; cold cut and cheese station; sushi and finally dessert station. What I found missing versus a typical buffet were the ‘Asian’ cooked food station but I appreciate that they left it out and gave us more quality ingredients. The sushi station could also have been presented better with better quality sushi like sushi rolls with mentaiko or maybe even unagi which would spell premium more than what was available. One thing that could be better was the service. Now, it’s by no means bad but for example not having saucer to put the soya sauce and wasabi was definitely something quite basic not to be missed out. Taste wise, everything was pretty on point. The sashimi was definitely top notch fresh and desserts were delicious. I also particularly enjoyed the ribs at the meat station as well as the carbonara paste I had. All in all, for 1-1 price it was definitely well worth. We stayed till almost 3pm which was their closing time, I did notice that they started clearing by around 230pm.

Good value for money after using the 1 for 1 Sunday Brunch voucher which retailed at $138.89 back in late November 2021. Some courses are more to my liking than others, but that is dependent on personal taste. Worth checking out if there is another sale!

Second time here and had the 4 course dinner set. Was pleasantly surprised by every dish. The elevated Asian flavours are really what drew me back to eat here again. Love the restaurant aesthetic too.
