We opt for the European Selection (non-vegetarian one). The Garlic Bread and Balsamic Tomato Dip as Appetizers are irresistible. The bread is fresh and the delectable dip is a fabulous red, with the heat factor in moderation.

In the Main Course, we enjoy supple prawns in a brandy infusion. This Cocktail di Gamberi (Prawn Cocktail) is done right with a perfectly creamy combination of Mayonnaise, Ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. The lettuce always adds to the freshness.

Next up is the Roasted Turkey Breast with Roast Gravy and Cranberry Sauce. A superb Christmas dish, I would say. Turkey so succulent that each bite reminds of Christmas spent in Europe. The Red Wine Jus and Cranberry Sauce add the extra magic. The portion size of this dish itself is sufficient to fill you up. If not, then there is a generous size of Lasagne di Agnello waiting for you after that.

Perfectly baked and layered Lasagne oozing with that cheesy flavour which we crave for in Holiday time. There is pounded lamb in between the Lasagne sheets, well-flavoured to set-in the festive mood in you!

Hey, and here’s the best part. How is Christmas complete without that Plum Cake, after all? To make things merrier, there is Brandy Sauce to drench the cake before digging in.

We finish off with pretty Three-Layer Chocolate Mousse. Rich and sinful, each layer melts in your mouth as you sink into the milky, chocolatey flavour of this well-loved dessert.

And some Christmas Cookies for teatime or the breakfast next day? Wish granted!
