Argentina-spiced Roasted US Turkey

Perfect for large gatherings and celebrations are the Argentina-spiced Roasted US Turkey served with roasted red skin potatoes with caramelised onion, mixed garden vegetables, brussels sprouts, cranberry sauce, giblet sauce and chestnut stuffing. I also recommend the Manuka Honey and Cinnamon Glazed Bone-In-Gammon Ham, one of the tastiest I have had so far.

Black Angus Beef Wellington

For Beef Wellington, two options are available - Traditional Black Angus Beef Wellington and Vegan Beef Wellington. The vegan version is prepared with vegan beef patties, coated with mushroom duxelles and wrapped in a puff pastry before baking for at least half an hour.

Debuting this year is the Triple Nutty Crunch Log Cake (S$85/1kg). Crafted into a wood stack, the cake is a luscious composition of sacher sponge, hazelnut praline crunch and mousse, gianduja crémeux and caramelised hazelnut.

Seared Scallops

Origin Grill also presents a specially curated set menu by Chef Nathan Griffin, featuring dishes such as Black Pepper Spiced Pork Terrine and Seared Scallops. The latter was my favourite of the evening, featuring perfectly seared scallops dressed with creamy chestnut veloute with hints of sweetness from maple syrup, with an accompanying piece of pancetta to lend a balancing flavorful savouriness. Origin Grill festive set lunch and dinner are available from 1 December 2022 to 1 January 2023.

Homemade Tortellini Pasta

Waterfall Ristorante Italiano has also dished up festive menus with Chef Simone Loisi's special creations for the season. Indulge in fresh seafood, homemade pasta and desserts in the festive Antipasti Buffet Brunch, Set Lunch and Dinner. Highlights include Salmon Carpaccio with Burrata cream and Homemade Tortellini Pasta stuffed with Mushroom. I truly enjoyed both dishes, especially the Salmon Carpaccio, which was luscious with Burrata cream and incredibly delicious with tangy sweet pomegranate dressing. The lunch and dinner set menus are available from 1 December 2022 to 1 January 2023. Antipasti Buffet Brunch is only available on 25 December 2022 and 1 January 2023.
