The 'Square' at Novotel will rake in as perhaps one of the most wholesome brunches I've ever been subject to. It had everything in it's arsenal to appease the taste buds and truly made for an enthralling experience. The spread was replete touching upon a medley of variegated cuisine to ensure a sumptuous feast. The food kept erupting like a lava and kept flowing in abundance. Such was the array on display that you would be virtually spoilt for choice because there was just too much to choose from and you have to take calculated risks in order to have the best of everything.
Quantity accounts for nothing if it doesn't match up with quality and this was where they were streets ahead with most of the stuff being bang on target. There were just a few solitary items which needed improvement but the majority of the coarse made the tongues tingle and crave for more. They covered good ground on all bases and it was apparent from the taste on display.
There were many specialty counters ranging from drinks, chaat, soup and dosa. The drinks section was based on the ad lib concept where you get to make your own drink with help and suggestions thrown in by the bartender to make it exactly the way you want. The chaats had your usual pani puri, dahi puri, pav bhaji etc. They had Laksa soup (A malay version) where you get to pick the type of noodles and veggies which get cooked along and I immensely enjoyed this soup which had a stong tinge of coconut cream to it. They had a plethora of dosa options on the house which were served in an inimitable manner.
The Live Counters account for just a miniscule percentage of the whole course as there were host of other options consisting of an extravagant main course spread, a pastiche of desserts, an eclectic mix of eggs, pancakes and waffles, bunch of starters, assorted salads and so much more in store. They also had fruit juices of different flavors stored in cute test tubes colorfully co-ordinated on the table to get us all set for the big picture.
Another high point of the meal was on the presentation angle. It just made our foray all the more memorable. The attention to detail paid on all fronts really deserves the plaudits. It really showed well and clear the efforts behind the scenes to orchestrate this exquisite show.
The service was top notch and they made sure the customer goes back having the pleasure of dining here. They were amiable, friendly and ever ready to take in any sort of feedback. There was hardly anything to pinpoint as even the minor blips were addressed with care and caution. As we were on an invite, I would have to refrain from commenting on the prices. But I must say for the magnanimous and lavish spread on offer, this brunch would be worth every single penny.
The location maybe a constraint as the place is located at a considerable distance from the heart of the city. But come to think of it, if you're looking for a getaway spot away from the hustle and bustle of the city and have a calm, laidback meal at your own leisure with even a dip in the pool as part of the package and to boot listen to some old school blues and jazz music you really can't complain. In essence a lovely option for brunch to satisfy your desideratum.
