SandBank - Eat . Drink . Plunge
[Media Invite]
We patronise East Coast Park often, we know the chain of eateries at Parklane Green but we never know SandBank at Parklane Green now serves Buffet Breakfast, besides their mouth-watering pasta, pizzas, grilled meats, and cold beers. You can imagine the anticipation we have when we were invited by Sand Bank for a Buffet Breakfast!
And we were told to bring along wet suite because they have their very own 15m plunge pool. What?! I didn’t dare to tell AJ this, lest he got too excited and couldn’t sleep the night before.
So that Saturday morning we went. And we were their first customers! At 8.30am on a Saturday, I guess everyone would be sleeping in. Ah! But I have a child whose biological clock has been tuned to wake up no later than 7am daily. So off to East Coast we went, scooting and jogging then headed to SandBank for a breakfast buffet! Life can't be better, can it?
There are actually 2 pools – one deeper and one shallower. Even the deeper one is only about 0.9m, so it is pretty safe for kids 8 and up. I think the idea of this plunge pool is great! Parents with older kids can have the peace to eat, chill and chat by the pool while the kids play in the pool.
The outdoor seating is lovely, that is, if you don't mind the morning sun (scorching hot, at times!). Otherwise, SandBank has ample indoor seating. But if you are bringing your kids for a plunge in their pool, it may be wise to sit near the pool.
The buffet spread was reasonable, not exceptionally wide, so you got to set your expectation right. As a paleo eater, the spread served me well.
The cereal station was the first station AJ went for because he is deprived of it (we don't eat cereal at home)
We eat eggs everyday, so I was so glad that they have a dedicated Egg Station like most international buffet breakfast would. You can have your eggs done in any way, yes, even egg benedict!
Eat, Drink, Plunge – this is the tagline of SandBank. And yes, it was literally like that for the little boy. It was lovely to see him on this repeat mode because he is growing, I need him to eat more! It's great to know that there is public shower facilities located right next to SandBank for the little ones to dry up after all the fun.
What's more! Besides having a splashing good time in the plunge pool, the kids were also kept entertained by balloon twisting and glitter tattoo by Weekends Pte Ltd!
I love the ambience of the place! The beach front dining, the spacious layout and the natural breeze from the sea. To me, the ambience and the facility (the plunge pool) are the main draw to this place, the food is secondary. The crowd swam in around 10am so if you are an early bird like me, you can really dine in tranquillity for a good one over hour. Yes, it is an ideal place to start an energetic weekend.

This was my appetiser.
