InterContinental Singapore
Reading about Intercontinental Singapore’s Christmas dining extravaganza just makes us want to hop in a cab and do a festive restaurant crawl throughout the whole, gorgeous hotel! Throughout the month of December, they have everything from a Christmas day brunch to New Year’s Eve dinner to, wait for it, The Longest Breakfast 2016! That’s right, mama, we’re talking a breakfast that lasts from 5am-5pm so you can go straight from ringing the New Year in to kicking back and recovering on the first of January over chilled Alaskan crab with avocado parfait and more deliciousness…and (yet another) glass of champagne in hand if you so choose!
