For those of you who love Sunday brunch hangouts, there’s a new spot to consider – this time, by the Singapore River. Shabestan, the Middle Eastern restaurant known for its Persian flavours, has just launched The Silk Road Caravan Brunch.
The new menu, priced at S$38++ per person, includes 2 courses, free-flow mezze, and ice cream. Inspired by authentic Persian cuisine and the world’s greatest trade route, this brunch menu brings together dishes from five regions across four categories.
For the uninitiated, mezze refers to sides or appetisers, which make your meal more complete. For The Silk Road Caravan Brunch, this comes in the form of unlimited pita bread, pita chips, Persian bread, and Saffron rice. Free-flow hummus, Muhammara, and Homemade Cheese dips add to the line-up with elevated flavours, while all-you-can-eat ice cream gives you something sweet to complete your meal.
We’ve only mentioned the sides so far, so let’s explore the 4 categories on the menu! Under ‘Egg Favourites’, you will find different variations of the protein-rich food prepared in all kinds of ways. From the familiar Fried Eggs to the unique Egg Cup Cakes to the crowd favourite Shakshouka, egg lovers will have plenty to choose from. I would definitely order a Shakshouka for its poached eggs immersed in rich tomato sauce.
Another category to consider is ‘Charcoal Grills’. Highlights include Persian-style kebabs and skewers, featuring chicken and lamb. If you like a smoky, meaty addition to your brunch, this is for you.
Prefer something more hearty and “saucy”? The Slow-Braised Stews are a compelling choice too. Opt for the Ghalieh Mahi if you’d like a Southern Persian fish stew, or the Ghormeh Sabzi Lamb for tender lamb braised with fragrant herbs and ingredients.
‘Caravan Classics’ is the fourth and final category of the menu, and features dishes like Falafel, Arayes (crispy stuffed pita pockets), and Garlic Shrimp. Whichever category appeals to you, you can pick any 2 items from the entire menu, mix and match, and form your 2-course brunch.
The Silk Road Caravan Brunch at Shabestan is available every Sunday, from 11.30am to 3pm. Kids’ meals are also available for children aged 12 and below at S$10++ each. Kid-friendly options include Mac & Cheese, Chicken Wings with Fries, and Fish & Chips. Vegetarian and gluten-free options are also available, if needed.
For a Sunday brunch that transports you to centuries-old Middle Eastern traditions and flavours, make your reservation here.
