It’s a well-known fact that Singaporeans love their food (and have even coined it a national past-time!). Weekend brunches here have become quite an institution, and are usually a good excuse to while away lazy weekend mornings with loved ones. Brunch during the Easter weekend however, is on a whole other level – restaurants here usually pull out the stops to make their feast a family-friendly, indulgent and activity-packed one. From best dressed competitions and treasure hunts for egg-shaped chocolates to all-you-can-eat spreads of meats and seafood, here are some places you should consider for the Easter weekend this year (2 to 4 April 2021).
