At the Festive Carving Station, highlights include the Traditional Roasted Whole Turkey, classically paired with cranberry sauce, and a succulent, sweet-savoury Maple-glazed Gammon Ham served with zesty spiced pineapple marmalade.

Charcoal-grilled Grass-fed Lamb Leg

The Charcoal-grilled Grass-fed Lamb Leg rubbed with Ras El Hanout spice stood out for its heady, aromatic flavours. Alongside it was a Slow-roasted Tomahawk, finished with a final torching of the exterior to add an extra layer of char and smokiness.

We also tried an interesting take on Duck Confit, served with Savoy cabbage, that offered a comforting, well-balanced combination.

Roasted Duck, Maltose Honey-glazed Char Siew

For Asian roasts, both the Roasted Duck and Maltose Honey-glazed Char Siew impressed with their succulency and depth of flavour.

"Jiang Zheng" Red Snapper

IMG_9778
"Bi Feng Tang" Roasted Chicken

Under Asian Delights, the "Jiang Zheng" Red Snapper was moist and tender, robustly flavoured with fermented bean paste chilli and crispy pork lard. A clear crowd-pleaser was the "Bi Feng Tang" Roasted Chicken, made moreish with crispy garlic and dried chilli.

Wok-fried Singapore Hokkien Noodles

My personal favourite was the Wok-fried Singapore Hokkien Noodles wrapped in Opah Leaf, fragrant and satisfying.

Sheraton Towers Singapore - Festive Celebrations At The Dining Room

IMG_9038

For this festive season, Sheraton Towers Singapore presents an extravagant buffet spread and a selection of festive takeaways featuring beloved holiday classics at The Dining Room.

IMG_8914

Staying true to tradition, the symbolic Oven-roasted Christmas Turkey is a classic done right - golden-brown skin with succulent, tender meat.

IMG_8910
BBQ Glazed Wagyu Rump

IMG_8987
Citrus Tamarind-Glazed Semi Bone-in Gammon Ham

You can also enjoy the BBQ Glazed Wagyu Rump, rich and flavourful, and the Citrus Tamarind-Glazed Semi Bone-in Gammon Ham, served with a bright pineapple sauce that lifts the overall profile.

IMG_8920
Spicy Turmeric Coconut Turkey

For festive takeaways, The Dining Room introduces a bolder reinterpretation of the classic turkey: the Spicy Turmeric Coconut Turkey ($208). Inspired by traditional Singapore Malay flavours, it is served with tomato basmati rice, green bean kerabu, and mung bean crackers. Infused with turmeric, bird’s eye chilli, and rich coconut milk, it offers warm, familiar notes that will add depth and colour to your festive table.

IMG_8930
Seafood on Ice

IMG_9005
Sushi and Sashimi

The buffet also showcases a lavish Seafood on Ice selection, along with Sushi and Sashimi.

IMG_8926
Cheese and Charcuterie Counter

IMG_8928

The Cheese and Charcuterie Counter is fully stocked with an impressive variety of cheeses, condiments, and artisanal charcuterie. The Salad Bar is equally delightful, offering beautifully plated salads alongside a vibrant selection of fresh greens.

IMG_8934
Parmesan Herb-crusted Maine Lobster

IMG_8998

An array of premium hot dishes, such as Parmesan Herb-crusted Maine Lobster, is complemented by a variety of Chinese and Asian specialities.

IMG_9003

To elevate the festive atmosphere, an outdoor BBQ station adds smoky, crowd-pleasing flavours to the experience.

IMG_9008
Baked Brie En Croûte

One of my favourites was definitely the Baked Brie En Croûte. Prepared à la minute, the warm, oozy brie has a lightly caramelised, flaky exterior and is served atop crusty toast. Paired generously with honey and nuts, it was wonderfully decadent.

IMG_8957
Spiced Pumpkin Meringue Tart

IMG_8955
White Forest

Desserts were incredible. Classics such as Panettone, Almond Stollen, and Christmas Fruit Cake were beautifully executed, alongside more creative additions like the Spiced Pumpkin Meringue Tart and White Forest, a new creation featuring vanilla sponge and griottines cherries. Of course, no festive spread would be complete without a classic logcake, and their Crunchy Chocolate Praline Logcake proved to be a definite crowd-pleaser.
