Day 10 - Sunday

Despite awaking with a sore head and feleing a littel rough - I had been waiting for today for months before we came to Shangai - We were going to have what has been describeds as the 'World's Best Brunch' It was one of the most amazing deals at the Westin Hotel in Puxi.

The whole day was about enjoying the city's most celebrated Sunday Brunch, with its sumptuous buffet spread and entertaining live performances. For about £55 each we could dine on just about everything!

There was food stations all over that included some of the last beluga caviar, sushi, lobster, peking duck, smoked salmon, stonebaked pizza, kebab skewers, prime rib, BBQ pork, chinese dumpling, fruits, desserts, you name it we could fill our plates with it again, again, again and again if there was still room!!

Included in the price was unlimited Mumm Champagne refills, Mojito cocktails along with drinks ranging from make your own cocktail bar, wine, and beer.

Also included in the price is their floor show that is worth the cost alone. Acts include Chinese opera, acrobatics, modern Chinese music, dancing and more.

Now you are all probably realising what I was thinking, yes I was in heaven all the food I could eat and all the drink my liver could take!!!

Well throughout the meal the champagne glass was kept filled, there was at least two other drinks on the table at all times (one of these was water) Jodie and myself tried out a few cocktails, hers being Kahlua, Baileys and Chocolate Vodka...this was yummy. my preffered snifter was - Raspbery Vodka, Cointreau, cranberry juice, lemon juice topped up with fresh orange juice.. Oh and did i forget to mention it was self-service so I could do Mark measures!!! ;0)

It was one of the most memorable meals we have ever had and a highlight of our trip to Shanghai.

After the meal we had to spend the evening relaxing...we were all rather full and despite Sam and Garry getting a taste for the Champagne it was Jodie and Me that were feeling a little squiffy.
