Recently I have won a free brunch at PODI from Raffles City Shopping Centre and decide to dine there. As it is 3pm when we arrive at the restaurant.

With the voucher, I order the above dish from the brunch menu. It is served with a side salad. The waffle is quite nice and crispy, while the duck is quite tender and flavourful. But both together, it is not a well balance combination. I feel that the use of duck here is too strong in flavour as it overpowered other items in the dish. I also order a Afternoon Tea Platter for 2 which costs $25++ and is available daily from 3-6pm. The set comes with 2 beverages, a choice of sorbets, a choice of cupcake, a choice of sliced cakes and a cranberry scone in the set. One of the beverages selected is iced tea, which is served unsweeten and there is barely any ice cubes in it. As it tastes a bit bitter, we try to sweeten it with packets of sugar. Another beverage selected is Earl Grey tea, which is served in a pot and refillable for hot water. The tea tastes not bad, light and flavourful. The cranberry scone is served with jam and butter. I would prefer to have it with clotted cream. But it still tastes not bad. For cupcake, I have selected Pandan Coconut Cupcake, which tastes grated coconut flakes with slight pandan flavour. There is also other choices such as Chocolate Overload, Chocolate Peanut Butter, and Lemony Orange. For sliced cake, I have selected Banoffee Crumble Pie ($5.80++). The mousse cake is not too sweet and have slices of banana in it. There is a choice between Mango and Triple Berry for Sorbet. I select Mango which is tangy and not too sweet.
Total the meal costs $29.43. Overall the food is not bad. The place is quite relaxing, surrounding the water fountain. Service is a bit slow with only 2 staffs around.
