Summer Hill

French comfort food served from a dim sum trolley!? Sounds interesting and fun! But let me tell you my honest opinion—it's totally NOT WORTH it. For the experience, once is enough. There's too much gimmick, overhype, and misleading information but if you want to show off, this is indeed an Insta-worthy place.

It's not cheap, guys. The Weekend "Buffet" Brunch Trolley costs $69++ per person, and I don't see the buffet side to it. Just take a look at their T&C.

Terms & Conditions:
* The menu may vary slightly each week depending on the occasion and inspiration!
* Be on time, or you’ll need to wait for the end of the first round to circle back to missed trolleys!
* You’ll be served one full round of the menu before dessert.
* You’ll then be asked if you would like any repeats of the courses.
* Repeats will not be served before this.

"Vary slightly" means sometimes you get better stuff, sometimes you don't—it's all based on the chef's mood. Don't call it a buffet if you can only repeat once and have to wait for one round of serving to finish before you can order again.

The food was generally average, with some dishes a tad salty, and some a little burnt, but there were one or two items I found delicious. Also, the portions were pathetically small. As you can see from the picture above, these are all for sharing. The Steak & Eggs were perfectly roasted, drizzled with savoury sauce, and accompanied by creamy scrambled eggs. The 3-Cheese Mac & Cheese was also delicious, being creamy and not overly cheesy. The Brussels sprouts amandine were crunchy and refreshing. The DIY snow cone was basically a small bucket of shaved ice with whatever toppings and flavoured syrup you want.

Their desserts were alright, and I liked their Irish Liqueur cream the most. LOL. The chocolate stout cake wasn't boozy enough and was quite moist. The warm banana bread with salted rum caramel was okay, but the sauce tasted more bitter and burnt than sweet and savoury.

The service was good, as they kept r
efilling the cups of water, but I guess it's the food that made me thirsty.👀

Not too sweet and the pastry is buttery

It needs to take 45 mins to roast but with the wait because the meat is tender and moist. Yummy

The stew beef is tender and juicy and the pasta is yummy too

Tasty and full of onion

Good for sharing between 3-4

Cake, yuzu curd and cream were all pleasant, safe choice and nothing particularly stood out. But there was too much plum ice cream at the bottom, the ratio is off, we ended up with just a blob of ice cream at the end
