Garibaldi Italian Restaurant & Bar - Interesting Sunday Brunch

For the longest time, I had been wondering about what is the Sunday brunch at Garibaldi like; is it ala carte buffet or what? The friendly staffs there informed that they serve up a variety of dishes (antipasto, pasta, mains, desserts). And the menu for brunch changes every week. If one likes a particular dish a lot, he/she can always order a second helping since all dishes are free flow.

Though, for someone like me with a small appetite and given the generous variety of dishes served (salad, oysters, smoked salmon, sliced duck, 3 types of pasta, 2 types of mains and desserts), 1 helping of each is more than enough for me. Remember to inform the service staff on what ones does not eat (for example, I don't take beef) so they can tailor the dishes to one's preferences. Food wise, they are nice, especially the pasta, since fresh ingredients and aromatic Italian herbs are used and I did not get an allergic reaction from eating the oysters there (I usually avoid oysters due to allergy).

To be frank, I wasn't wowed by the food there (but I like the food nonetheless) and the desserts are too ordinary. Given that brunches are mainly meant for the variety rather than to be heavenly in taste, I say the brunch here is of great standard, coupled with a posh ambience and a service crew who are full of smiles, friendly and chatty;

This is the place I'll definitely consider for Sunday brunch, besides Basilico.

My Thoughts: Very Nice!
