Where to go for a joyous festive feast, depending on who you are going with

It's that time of the year again when twinkling lights adorn every corner, and Mariah Carey's All I Want for Christmas Is You is on a never-ending loop. 

Christmas is here, and what's the best way to celebrate this joyous holiday season? Well, with a festive feast, of course!  

But where should you go for your Christmas culinary adventure? Fear not, we've got you covered, no matter who you're celebrating with. 

Glam it up with your girlfriends

This Christmas, elevate your celebration with a glamorous feast that mirrors the style and sophistication of your amazing girlfriends. From Instagram-worthy decor to a scrumptious menu, every detail should exude a chic celebration.

If whimsical cafes are your tribe’s vibe, café Q classified should be your go-to spot for your festive feast. From their Summertime Ahi salad ($18.90) to their Cold Somen ($18), they’ve got it all, but do leave space for their delectable Gibb Berry Dutch Baby Pancakes ($16)!

Looking for a place for some traditional set lunches, dinners, or perhaps a turkey takeaway? Tanglin Cookhouse, with its elegant colonial-style setting and vast menu, is just the place to be.

Just in need of some light nibbles to go with your variety of drinks? Tipsy Bunny and Ohayo Mamasan have got to be our top picks. Adorable decor, delicious small bites for sharing, and just all-around good atmosphere – what more could we ask for?

It's double the fun with your bestie

If you're spending Christmas with your bestie, make it a festive Mexican affair at alfresco eatery and bar, Chimi’s.

Adorned with twinkling lights, festive decorations and a warm, inviting atmosphere, Chimi’s at 313@somerset is perfect for creating unforgettable moments with your bestie. Split some Borracho Fish Tacos ($18) or get some loaded nachos (from $14) to share while you savour your frozen margaritas (from $13) – it's going to be a fiesta!

Care for a quieter setting? A Beautiful Day at PLQ Parkside is a great pick. Share a bottle of wine, grab some hearty bites, like their Beef Bouguignon ($19.90), and enjoy the ambience that only a charming bistro can provide.

If you’re looking for something that’s sure to be familiar to everyone, Swensen’s at Parkway Parade is the perfect place! It’s always a good time no matter who you’re with. Get a Poultry Platter ($41.90) to share and end your dinner on a sweet note with their Snowscape Wonderland Sundae ($13.80)!

Keep it warm and cosy with family

Spending Christmas with your dearest on this special occasion and catering to each family member’s dietary preference may be a challenge, but homely dishes like Crispy Sweet and Sour Pork ($16.30) from Paradise Classic can never go wrong.

Not keen on serving ham as your festive centrepiece? Try Rempapa’s Pork Knuckle Debal ($98), a richly flavoured Eurasian classic featuring roast pork, smoked pork knuckle and potatoes.

Looking for alternative Christmas feast ideas? Head over to Tempura Makino and try their seasonal winter menu – creamy Zuwai Kani Koura Gratin Tempura ($10.50) and Zuwai Kani Kamatama Udon with snow crab leg tempura ($28.50) – or head over to Tonkatsu ENbiton for some cheesy, meaty goodness.

Go casual with colleagues

If alfresco dining is your team’s kind of vibe, head over to Jimmy Monkey or Prive for some light nibbles and drinks after work. Jimmy Monkey’s Cauliflower Crack ($12) and Crispy Pork Belly ($12), in particular, are the perfect bites to go with your beers or mocktails.

If you’re looking for something more festive, Jimmy Monkey has a Christmas menu starting from Dec 18 to 25. Don’t miss this chance to try their Beef Wellington ($35++)! Got vegan colleagues to cater to? Privé has a Festive ‘Sausage’ Pie ($23) that will appeal to even the non-vegans.

Having an office party? Grab some Korean desserts like the Injeolmi Waffle ($17.50) or Honey Toast ($10.90) from Dal.Komm Coffee, and mini logcakes (from $8) with festive drinks like the Peppermint Mocha Ice Blended drink (from $8.80) at The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf!

No matter who you're celebrating with this Christmas, there's always a place in Lendlease malls that can cater to all your festive celebrations with your friends and family. After all, 'tis the season to eat, drink, and be merry!
