Dig Into a Feast with These 5 Special Christmas Menus in Penang
Sure, we all love ourselves some good Char Koay Teow, but the season wouldn’t feel complete without a proper menu of some festively themed treats, right? Nothing brings people together better than a great meal so check out these spots that will make your Christmastime a little jollier!
SPINK
Your house may be decorated with everything red, green, and, white but everything is pink at SPINK! Instead of an old-fashioned turkey, why not enjoy some scrumptious jumbo lobsters or foie gras with truffle pasta instead? They also serve up Hokkaido scallops with caviar and foie gras on toast as hors d'oeuvres and a carefully selected cheese platter to make your Christmas meal one to remember.
Nod Nod Desserts, Biscotti Café
We’re suckers for anything cute, so we’ll be nodding our heads while enjoying the menu from Nod Nod Desserts. Get a box filled with goodies like a snowman and Christmas tree macaron. Otherwise, pick up an elaborately made gingerbread village. Life is just better with desserts!
ÉNFD
If you’re too lazy to venture outdoors for Christmas or to cook, then just sit back, relax, and order from ÉNFD which provides bespoke elevated catering experiences. They boast an extensive menu that you’ll have a hard time choosing from such as their Salmon Wellington Platter with South-East-Asian influence and elements that serves six. Unearth the baked salmon underneath the flaky pastry that is accompanied by comforting sides like roasted lemon herb baby potatoes and parmesan & chives biscuits.
Macalister Mansion
As the author Letitia Baldrige once said: “Tea time is a chance to slow down, pull back and appreciate our surroundings.” Unwind from all the Christmas events with a ‘Santa-Licious Afternoon Tea’ at this beautifully restored heritage hotel. Start with the savoury goods such as the ‘Festive Roast Quail with Port Wine Jus’ and ‘Salted Egg Chicken Floss French Toast’, and then indulge in some Orange Bailey Chocolate Truffles washed down with a cup of TWG tea.
Reserve your afternoon tea set here.
Shangri-la Rasa Sayang
Since Christmas falls on a weekend this year, why not treat yourself to a staycation at this beachside resort? Otherwise, just head there for their Christmas buffet! Their Pinang Restaurant & Bar will be having an eat-all-you-can poolside barbecue with beautifully roasted meats and chocolate confections for afters.
