Catalunya was definitely one of the hottest restaurants to open in Hong Kong last year - so for a Sunday lunch I gathered my folks for a stuff-yourself-silly meal...

They set up brunch to have various interactions - most would start of
with the food stations and the bread selection including a Spanish staple, tomato bread, then you may move on to the selections in which you
order (Spanish tortilla aka 'trampo' omelette, deconstructed omelette
and bikini sandwiches are definitely must-trys). If you're still good to
go, wait for the show where loud music comes on and staff bring out the
show-stoppers of whole suckling pic, fish, lamb and veal shank and
serve them to each table as you like. Last but not least, the sweet
treats come out and these are definitely something not to be missed. My
favourites? The sour berries with fresh whipped cream and the rich chocolate
mousse with olive oil sea salt and crouton.
At $590 (not including alcohol) this is one of the better brunch buffets in my opinion for one simple reason - lots of variety with good execution of dishes.
