UNA, Spanish restaurant's Summer Series includes Summer Sunday Buffet Brunch, served from 11am to 3pm. 

Situated at One Rochester, Una offers al-fresco dining. Its Head Chef Jean-Philippe Patruno worked in London's renowned Michelin-starred and award-winning restaurants, Chez Nico on Park Lane, Barrafina Spanish Tapas and Bar and Quo Vadis previously.

Known for serving authentic Spanish cruisine, Una's signature Paella is known to be the best in town.

We liked how the menu was designed in newspaper style. Very artsy!

After we were seated, we were served Una's signature, Sangria - a mixture of wine and liquor infused with lemon, lime, orange and apple.

Here's my significant other, J enjoying his Sangria.

I have to say that I really like Una for photo-taking opportunities, from the al-fresco dining area to the lush greenery.

Tapas

Chorizo & Cider

We like how flavourful and juicy the chorizo is when you sink your teeth into it.

The salt cod fritters had a light crisp to it with moist soft flesh beneath.

Eggs Station

For eggs, we went with Una's Signature Egg Benedict (J's favourite) and Spanish Tortilla Aioli which recommended by our server.

We thought that the bonito flakes added an interesting twist to the traditional egg benedict. We particularly liked how the tuna was done and paired with the egg benedict.

Spanish Tortilla Aioli

The Spanish Tortilla Aioli reminds me very much of rosti! It is very rich in flavour, so much so that I was surprised that when I googled, no cheese is used in the making of Spanish Tortilla Aioli. It gets a little filling after 1/4 of it so it would be good to share with a dining partner. Initially, when they served this, it had me wondering where are the eggs. Turns out that egg yolks are used to make the aioli.

Grill Section


We settled for the smoked quail and tiger prawns. We really wanted to try the meatballs and chicken wings but we were so full by then.

I haven't tried quail meat prior to this and interestingly, the meat was softer and squashier than what I thought it would be. Even though it was well-marinated with spices, I have to say that quail meat is still not quite my cup of tea.

Tiger Prawns

The tiger prawns were huge and succulent though and we appreciate how it is de-shelled for diners' convenience. How thoughtful! 

Last but not least, what's brunch without desserts?

Panna cottta, Banoffee pie, fruit tart and Bitter chocolat mousse


Of the desserts that I tried, I found the Banoffee pie to be the best. Its not too sweet and I like how the crushed biscuits at the bottom adds a little crunch to it. 

While I don't usually fancy chocolate mousse, the Bitter chocolat mousse at Una is really good. It is rich yet it doesn't make you feel sick of it after a few bites.
