A warm welcome, fantastic food and free-flowing fizz, what more could you want from a bottomless brunch?

After extensive research, my friends and I think we've found Southampton's best! 

The search will no doubt continue, but we'll have to go a very long way to beat the exceptional experience at Blue Jasmine, the stunning waterfront restaurant with imaginative Asian fusion cuisine and a passion for wines of the world we definitely share.

We're particular fans of the Asian bottomless brunches, Mango Thai a previous favourite, so we couldn't resist heading to Ocean Village marina on a sunny Saturday to try out Blue Jasmine's version. 

Following its success during a trial in January owners Li and Lisa have extended the bottomless lunch offer, which runs between 12pm and 4pm on weekends and offers two courses and either bottomless prosecco, for £35, or cocktails for £40.

We were immediately made to feel at home with glasses of fizz delivered to our table overlooking the marina the second we opted for the prosecco version. 

Nocerella olives with fresh lime and Thai prawn crackers with sweet chilli sauce were served to start with plentiful prosecco arriving as soon as we were close to needing a refill. 

Three of us opted for the delectable fillet beef in black pepper sauce, each served with a choice of rice or noodles. They were so mouth watering and moreish that I'm still dreaming about them now.

I'm told the vegan duck massaman was also a triumph, my friend describing the dish, which even comes with a crispy 'skin', as 'insanely good'. 

We'll return another time to try out the other options of honey lemon chicken and seabass with ginger and spring onion. 

The attentive and friendly staff were in no hurry to get rid of us, or any of our fellow diners, offering us a final drink well beyond the 90 minute conclusion of our sitting. 

Having a brilliant day, we retired to Blue Jasmine's stylish lounge to sample some of the 100 plus wines on their incredible wine list as well as an exceptional espresso martini, one of the four cocktails available on the bottomless lunch menu.
