You probably can tell what it is, given the carols being played in elaborately decorated shopping malls and retailers offering their best year-end merchandise.
Christmas and New Year season is in the air and almost everyone is looking to end this long year with some well-deserved celebrations. And what better way to revel in the holiday season than with a big feast?
That said, why slave away in the kitchen this December when there are better alternatives out there that will save you time and effort? Like at Westin Hotel Kuala Lumpur, where a feast for your palate and eyes awaits.
Located in the glamourous and lively Bukit Bintang district, The Living Room at the Westin is offering hungry Malaysians a colourful array of traditional and modern Christmas dishes this December.
In fact, Christmas delicacies from over 10 countries will make an appearance, tempting you to give them a try.
So, what’s up for grabs? Well, head over to the bread counter and see for yourself the variety of pastries from across Europe.
Give the Italian Panettone Bread and Christmas Stollen Sweet Bread a try, or cut yourself a slice of French Walnut Raisin Baguette.
No pastry list would be complete without some Germanic entries like the German Salted Butter Candy Cane Bagels and the Austrian Gingerbread Loaf – yummy!
There is certainly more than just bread and buns at this feast though.
First to greet you would be the Spanish Seafood Paella, followed by its French neighbour, the Duck Leg Confit with Cherry, Quinoa and Orange Sauce.
To spice things up, there is a Jamaican entry turning up the heat with the Spiced Braised Oxtails, which pack a punch.
Alternatively, indulge in some of that cheesy Italian goodness with the Spinach and Cream Cheese Stuffed Portobello.
And from the cold north that is Sweden, sink your teeth into a warm Hasselback Potato, slathered with Orange Cheddar Sauce.
Now, you might be worried about all the calories you’re consuming; not to worry, there are healthier options at the Vegetarians of the World corner.
This section surely shows that greens can be really tasty too. The Italian Creamy Polenta is one such dish, as is the French Cauliflower Gratin and the Jamaican Jambalaya.
For fans of the Far East, you can savour as much Yakitori as your heart desires, with hot tempura available alongside the tasty skewers.
While the appetisers and main courses are delightful to see and savour, leave some space for the piece de resistance of the buffet; namely, the desserts.
Curated by newly appointed executive pastry chef, Syeriff Hafizal, the Christmas dessert menu is one guaranteed to vow kids and adults alike.
With sweet treats like the Belgian Chocolate Truffle with Candy Cane, the Austrian Raspberry Rudolph Cake, the German Yule Log Cake and French Macaroons, you will want for naught.
Additionally, feel free to keep the drinks flowing, as there will be a free flow of wines and beers at this merry feast!
Amidst all the feasting, guests will also be treated to some thrilling entertainment as there will be a magician playing tricks on guests throughout their time there.
So, this Christmas, head over to The Westin to enjoy a truly Magical Christmas Around the World that you will never forget!
