Sheraton Oyster & Wine Bar 蠔酒吧 [Hong Kong] - Possibly the Best Sunday Champagne Brunch Buffet in Hong Kong from HKD $998 ?

  Sheraton Hotel's Oyster & Wine Bar and also Morton Steakhouse has accumulated many loyal fans over the years,  many of whom including myself come here on occasions for the amazing night view on the 18th Floor facing the Harbour,  together with carefully selected Wines available by the Glass and also the guaranteed best Oyster offerings.  For their unlimited Perrier-Jouet Bubbly Sunday Oyster Brunch at $998 up,  they are also voted by many locals to be the No.1 coveted spot to land a table,  to the point a friend just told me during the recent Typhoon 8 hitting our shores,  the tables remained all occupied during her Sunday visit.  Despite the morning battering rain storm,  seemingly no one were deterred to give up their tables they had reserved for months ahead.  






Sunday Perrier-Jouet Free Flow Brunch from HKD $998 - Includes
Unlimited Fresh Oysters, Seafood and Hot Food
Unlimited Breakfast Egg Dishes
Unlimited Desserts
1 Main Course of Choice
Free-flow Perrier Jouet NV Champagne




Welcome Perrier-Jouet Grand Brut Champagne at the Entrance -




Some Jamon Ham to begin with Per Table -




Seafood Counter -
Look at the Alaskan King Crab legs.  The biggest I have seen in Hong Kong for Buffets,  the other one is at Café Express in Hotel Panorama.





Beetroot Cured Scottish Salmon -
Sliced at the table, very high quality.  I pair it with Horseradish cream..



The Sunday Oyster & Champagne Brunch Menu -
There are cold and hot Oysters,  unlimited Egg Dishes,  a Main Course choice,  also all you can order Souffle and Ice Creams




Buffet Sashimi & Sushi -
Again extremely high quality fish,  especially the Tuna Maguro.  In my whole time of eating out at Brunch or Dinner buffets,  only 2 places serve this high quality of Tuna for all you can eat selection.  Here,  or at Aqua at No.1 Peking Road.



5 Types of Imported Oysters,  Shucked to Order -
Without doubt,  this is the best unlimited Oyster Counter.  Sheraton Oyster & Wine Bar had built their reputation and good will from this specialty all these years, and it's hence one of the reasons why they have many loyal customers returning for this counter




Hot Oysters -
For those of us who also love baked Oysters,  today we ordered some Oyster Rockefeller, and Kilpatrick with bacon and Worchestershire sauce.




Eggs Benedict and Ouef en Meurette Burgundy style in Red Wine -
The latter I was surprised to find here, since it is a rare Burgundy recipe which I love eating on weekends,  and here it is served unlimited.



Bouillabaisse Seafood Stew with Rouille Croutons -
This had a lot of fish and prawns inside 



My Main Course - Half Lobster Thermidor with Quinoa
There are also choices of Lamb Rack,  or Beef Tenderloin.  However there is a Roasted Tomahawk beef served as a Prime Rib style on the buffet table side and it was delectable, so I chose the lobster today.




Roasted Tomahawk Beef -
Surprised to see a Tomahawk roasted here for the hot food section.  This was of very high quality,  and little wonder this Sunday Brunch table is so popular,  as all the food and details are well taken care of.  Even the baked Cheese Pasta parcels on the side were lovely.




Some of the Dessert Selections -
Including a lovely Black Forest, Strawberries Tart and also a Grand Marnier Souffle




My Dessert Platter -
There's quite a few dessert selections,  which you can see in the Video I compiled below..





Summary Video of the Sunday Perrier-Jouet Brunch Buffet -
There's too much food to cover with photos alone,  so hopefully this video is a bit more comprehensive showing the selections.  There is also a Cheese Counter at the end which has free pour Aged Port Wine,  which completes the from start to finish thoughtful Sunday Brunch.  Remember to book in advance by weeks or months ahead,  as this is one of the Hottest tables on any Sunday.  If you follow me on Instagram "@EpicurusHongKong",  you will notice I ate a lot of brunches or buffets recently,  but usually I only have time to prioritize covering the best on this website.  The other recent hot table for Sunday Brunch is the Free-flow Dom Perignon 2006 option at Ritz-Carlton Ozone Bar for HKD $1,298,  which I had just covered here for comparison :  http://foodofhongkong.blogspot.hk/2017/08/ozone-bar-ritz-carlton-hotel-hong-kong.html .  Coming up as a review next,  a Mexican Brunch is also a good option in Central.

MEZZA9, Grand Hyatt Hotel Macau [ Macau ] - Valentine's Day Special Menu with Some Surprises for $1299 Per Person

 It seems like I have been back to eating at Grand Hyatt Macau quite a few times in the past 2 months or so,  since their Peking Duck downstairs at Beijing Kitchen is probably one of the best I have eaten in the world,  even counting in Beijing itself.  Here we were invited back as a preview to try out the Valentine's Day Dinner Package.   It is priced at MOP $1299 per Person for the following Menu,  but there are some surprises for the lady so I won't post the spoiler here.  But if you are the gentleman booking for a table here,  you can ask the reception what the entire package includes on the phone!






The Mezza9 Valentine's Day Special Menu - $1299 MOP per person





Two Glasses of Veuve Clicquot Rose Champagne are included in the Price - 





Pretty 2 Layered Roses - 






A Fish Maw and Bamboo Pith Soup to Start - 
Surprisingly this was a hearty Chinese Soup to begin with...
Double boiled Nicely ~ 8/10






Champagne Sauce for the Oysters,
Sweet & Sour Chili Fish Sauce for Spring Roll,
Soy Sauce for Sushi Sashimi 





Assorted Sushi,  Sashimi,  French Oysters and Spring Roll for Sharing - 
I jokingly said knowing the customers,  they should include one more piece of Salmon.  Or else the couple can both bite on it together and have an excuse for a kiss !   ~  8/10





French Oyster with Veuve Cliquot Rose Champagne Jelly - 
Interesting combination of flavours!  Its actually pretty strong in the Champagne taste here..






Boston Lobster with Grilled Scallops a la Plancha,  served with Parsnip Mash and Oscietra Caviar - One Dish for Each Person 
The Scallops were huge just like in the above Sashimi platter and well caramelized on the surface.  The Lobster claw was prepared beautifully buttery warm and tender in the mouth.  Overall a lovely seafood dish and you can quote me on this,  not many places can make the lobster and scallops well - I never presume it when I go out dining.  Here was excellent!   ~  8.5/10





Lemon Lime and Vodka Sherbet - Palate Cleanser
Very sour and refreshing,  I really loved this before the next Main Course,  plus it isn't icy like a granita like many places make it.   The Sherbet/Sorbet itself is not too alcoholic but I soon learned why,  the Vodka melted away from the ice quicker and when you drink the bottom,  it's very vodka like!






Wagyu Tenderloin with Red Peppercorns and Sea Salt,  Black Truffled Jus Sauce,  a Pumpkin and I believe Orange Puree,  served with Grilled Duck Foie Gras,  Morel Mushrooms and Vegetables -  1 Dish Each 
This was a thick slab of wagyu beef cut and the way I like it,  served well grilled and warm.  The vegetables cocotte actually won everyone's heart,  the sauce within was very hearty and suited  the Asparagus,  Duck Foie Gras and the Morel and other Mushrooms well.  Needed some bread to dip into them to mop up the sauce...  ~  8.5/10





Duck Foie Gras Poele with Morel Mushrooms and Assorted Vegetables side -
I hardly see everyone finish their veggies on the table but everyone did this time around!  If I could have this for lunch as a warm salad every day I will be happy!







Rose and Chocolate Fondue for Two - 
Comes with the colorful New Year pastel Chocorons,  Choux Pastries filled with Flavored Creme Patissiere,  also Peeled Fruit Cup and last but not least,  the Home Made Ice Creams and Sorbet scoops to dip into the Rose Chocolate Fondue...  ~  8/10






The Ice Cream and Sorbet on top of a bed of Cocoa Nibs - 
The good thing about this is that the ice cream were frozen very cold yet not icy.  So even after dipping into the warm chocolate fondue,  it was just ready to eat!  






Price: $1299 + 10% Per Person  ( This Preview Meal by Invitation by the Hotel)
