Weekend Brunch

Publico reminds of Bali with some European vibes. Outdoor seating available but we opted for indoor (cause I like my brunch without sweat). For the Sunday Isola Brunch there’s a live DJ from 2:30 onwards. Doesn’t get crazy, but it’s perfect for big groups looking to drink and carbo-load.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🛎: service was veryyyyy slow. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🍴: Burrata with cherry tomatoes was top 3 I’ve had in SG. I usually love grilled octopus but it was way too tough here - wouldn’t recommend. Wood fired pizzas are a must - we had the Quattro Formaggi (GET IT), Prosciutto, and the Tartufata (black truffle). Carbonara, spaghetti chitarri, and black truffle tagliatelle were 🍝🔥🍝🔥🍝 carbonara is creamy but not too heavy and has big, fatty pieces of bacon in it 😈⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🍸: free flow options are available - unlimited beer/Pinot Grigio/Prosecco/rose for $75/pp ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💰: $$⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
❗️: reservation required for weekend brunch ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⏱: m-th: 5pm-11pm, fri: 5pm-12am, sat: 12pm-12am, sun: 11am-12am⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
📍: Intercontinental, Robertson Quay.

✨: best for brunch! Great place to come for a cute brunch date or even to meet up with someone you haven’t seen in ages. It’s one of those every-occasion kinds of places. We’ve also done a couple massive group brunches here (like 15 people) and it’s always fun. Took the second pic from @thedempseycookhouseandbar.sg to give you an idea of layout.
☕️: amazing coffee
🍴: love the burger with Brie and truffle mayo (+ great fries), truffle pizza, and calamari. Crispy salmon sushi is a requirement!! .
🧁: pancakes with ice cream 😈
💰: $$
❗️: reservation required .
⏱: opens at 11:30 for brunch on weekends. Gogogogogo
📍: 17 Dempsey Road

I love coming here with a few girlfriends. Casual but chic. Amazing coffee. And their signature Populus Scramble (S$19) will be all you think about for days.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Made with super soft and creamy scrambled eggs, a fresh herb mix, feta and bacon, this loaded croissant will make you feel things you’ve never felt before. It’s like a hug in your belly.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I usually get something sweet as well because it’s not quite filling enough for me. If you’re the same, I strongly advise you order the French Toast. Huge pieces of brioche with butter rum bananas and pistachios. It’s the French Toast you never knew you always needed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨: super cute brunch spot. Recommend for a big group brunch or double date brunch kind of thing. Definitely more of a breakfast/morning place - wouldn’t come here for dinner⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🛎: standard service ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
☕️: GREAT coffee⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🍴: indulge with this “Populus Scramble”. Or go healthy with any of their delicious grain bowls! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🥗: vegetarian options - I love their superfood bowl. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🧁: butter rum banana French toast. Or sticky date pudding. Or both.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
💰: $$ - definitely on the pricier side⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
❗️: reservation optional on weekdays, 100% need on weekends ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
