Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel Unwraps a Grand Festive Feast This Christmas 2025

It truly is the most wonderful time of the year, and Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza Hotel is pulling out all the stops to celebrate the festive season in style. Located at the heart of Orchard Road, the hotel presents a thoughtfully curated Christmas line-up that caters to every kind of celebration — whether you’re gathering around a lavish buffet, indulging in a refined afternoon tea, or hosting a memorable feast at home with premium takeaway delights.

This year’s festive offerings are particularly exciting, with the debut of 10 new takeaway creations that reimagine traditional Christmas favourites through refined techniques and luxurious ingredients. From indulgent roasts to eye-catching yule log cakes, the collection is designed to bring warmth, indulgence and a touch of elegance to every festive table.

Cointreau Marmalade-Glazed Whole Roast Turkey

A Christmas classic elevated to new heights, the Cointreau Marmalade-Glazed Whole Roast Turkey ($265, 4.5–5kg, serves 6–8) is sourced from the USA and meticulously prepared. Brined for 24 hours and dry-aged for enhanced flavour, the turkey is finished with herb butter beneath the skin to ensure juicy tenderness. The Cointreau marmalade glaze adds a delightful citrus brightness to the golden, caramelised skin. Served with Chestnut and Duck Foie Gras Stuffing and Cranberry & Port Wine Sauce, this is a true centrepiece worthy of any festive gathering.

Honey & Clove Glazed Ham (Boneless) with Cinnamon Pineapple Sauce

Slow-roasted and generously glazed, the Honey & Clove Glazed Ham ($210, 2-3Kg) delivers comforting festive flavours with its rich caramelisation and aromatic spices. The accompanying cinnamon pineapple sauce adds a fragrant, fruity lift that beautifully balances the smoky sweetness.

Roast Pork Saddle with Truffle & Amarena Cherry Stuffing with Bourbon Cherry Sauce

This indulgent roast - Roast Pork Saddle with Truffle & Amarena Cherry Stuffing with Bourbon Cherry Sauce ($240 nett, 2 kg, serves 6 to 8 persons) showcases crisp, ASMR-worthy crackling paired with tender, juicy meat. Butterflied and stuffed with Italian black truffle paste and Amarena cherries, the pork saddle is finished with a tangy-sweet bourbon cherry sauce that cuts through the richness effortlessly.

Slow-Roasted Black Angus Beef Striploin with Port Wine Sauce & Horseradish Cream

Marinated for up to four days with fragrant herbs, the Black Angus Beef Striploin ($310 nett, 2 kg, serves 6 to 8 persons) is slow-roasted until meltingly tender. Served with a velvety Port Wine Sauce and a sharp Horseradish Cream, each bite is rich, balanced and deeply satisfying.

Smoky BBQ Mount Gay Barbados Rum & Bacon-Glazed Iberico Pork Ribs

The Smoky BBQ Mount Gay Barbados Rum & Bacon-Glazed Iberico Pork Ribs ($195 nett, 1.5 kg to 1.8 kg, serves 6 to 8 persons) is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. These Iberico pork ribs are sous vide for 18 hours for fall-off-the-bone tenderness, then glazed with Mount Gay Barbados Rum, smoky bacon, and spices before oven-baking. The sweet-savoury finish is addictive, and the inclusion of a petite bottle of rum adds a playful festive touch.

Whole Lobster al Forno with Scallop, Crab Roe & Morel Stuffing with Crab Lemon Cavatelli Pasta

The Whole Lobster al Forno with Scallop, Crab Roe & Morel Stuffing with Crab Lemon Cavatelli Pasta ($275) is an impressive dish featuring an Australian whole lobster, generously stuffed with Hokkaido scallops, earthy morels and rich crab roe, served with Crab Lemon Cavatelli Pasta. Oven-roasted to enhance its natural sweetness, it is paired with Crab Lemon Cavatelli Pasta — al dente, citrusy and refreshing — making it a refined yet comforting sharing dish.

Signature Chocolate Fudge Log Cake

The Signature Chocolate Fudge Log Cake (1 kg, $90 nett / 500 g, $60 nett) is a perennial favourite for good reason. This chocolate indulgence uses premium Felchlin Sao Palme chocolate for deep, lingering richness that chocoholics will adore.

Apple Kiwi Yuletide Express

The Apple Kiwi Yuletide Express (1 kg, $95 nett) is bright, playful and refreshing. This vibrant cake layers lemon yoghurt mousse, kiwi coulis, apple compote and vanilla sponge atop a feuilletine crumble base — a fruity showstopper perfect for lighter palates.

Avocado Noël Cream Cake

The Avocado Noël Cream Cake (1 kg, $95 nett) is a whimsical festive creation featuring lemon cream cheese mousse, avocado crémeux and gula melaka sponge, complemented by yuzu coconut marshmallows. Light yet indulgent, it’s a delightful surprise that’s especially popular with the ladies.

Hazelnut Coffee Yule Log

Elegant and bold, the Hazelnut Coffee Yule Log (1 kg, $95 nett) combines white chocolate coffee mousse, coffee crémeux, hazelnut dacquoise and crunchy praline feuilletine for layers of luxurious texture and flavour.

Homemade Sourdough Chocolate and Classic Panettone

No Christmas table is complete without panettone, and the Homemade Sourdough Chocolate Panettone ($90) and Homemade Classic Panettone ($90) stay true to tradition while delivering comforting festive nostalgia.

For those celebrating out, Crossroads Buffet offers an opulent Christmas Eve and Christmas Day spread. Expect free-flow sashimi, fresh crustaceans, artisanal live stations (lunch only), premium roasts and Asian favourites. Highlights include Slow-Roasted Salmon Fillet with Caviar Sauce, Roast Turkey, Honey-Glazed Bone-In Ham, and Wok-Fried Crab with Salted Egg Sauce — a feast that truly embodies the joy of the season.

Festive takeaway pre-orders start from 3 November 2025, with self-collection and delivery available from 24 November to 25 December 2025. Enjoy up to 30% off with promo codes FESTIVE25 and LASTCHANCE (valid till 22 December 2025).

Pacific Emporium @ Pan Pacific Singapore - Launches Festive Afternoon Tea For The Festive Season

Celebrate the festive season with Pacific Emporium’s Festive Afternoon Tea, a thoughtfully curated spread of savoury bites, festive sweets, Christmas-inspired scones, and a choice of mains. The experience is complemented with TWG tea or coffee, with the option to add on a glass of champagne to amp up the celebratory mood.

We started with a complimentary welcome drink, Cinnamon Spark, a sweet-citrusy blend of cinnamon-honey syrup, fresh lemon juice, and aromatic bitters, which nicely set the tone for the afternoon.

Turkey Slider

Each guest gets to choose one main. The Turkey Slider featured a juicy turkey patty tucked between buttery brioche, layered with sweet caramelised onions and cheese.

Sampler of Festive Sausages

The Sampler of Festive Sausages, which included a Basil Pesto Bratwurst and Garlic Butter Sausage, was well-seasoned and juicy.

Salmon & Cheese Roulade

Lobster Salad

The savoury bites include festive creations. The Salmon & Cheese Roulade was a classic pairing of smoked salmon and cream cheese, while the Lobster Salad, cleverly presented as a local-inspired kueh pie tee, proved a delightful surprise.

Apple & Walnut Savoury Tart

Other savouries included Prosciutto e Melone, offering a light and refreshing contrast, and the Apple & Walnut Savoury Tart, which delivered a buttery, nutty bite with a hint of freshness.

Grilled Chicken Choux Bun

Breaded Ham & Cheese Sandwich

The Grilled Chicken Choux Bun was sweet-savoury and filling, packed with a creamy yet chunky chicken filling. Breaded Ham & Cheese Sandwich was served hot and pleasantly different from the usual cold tea sandwiches.

Hazelnut Passion Fruit Log Cake

The sweet treats this season leaned towards citrusy notes. The Hazelnut Passion Fruit Log Cake was nutty and fragrant, made with buckwheat sponge and layered with tart passion fruit curd.

Earl Grey Lavender Log Cake

The iridescent Earl Grey Lavender Log Cake intrigued with its Earl Grey Tanariva mousse, though the crunchy dark chocolate tended to dominate the overall flavour.

Apricot Dianduja Tart

Raspberry Rosella Choux

My favourites were the Apricot Dianduja Tart and Raspberry Rosella Choux. The tart struck the right balance of sweetness, with distinct yet harmonious chocolate and apricot flavours. The choux, on the other hand, had a spot-on tartness that beautifully balanced the sweetness.

Lemon Hazelnut Madeleine

Scones

The Lemon Hazelnut Madeleine was buttery with a gentle citrus lift, while the scones were served with clotted cream, cherry jam, and chocolate hazelnut spread. They were decent, though not particularly memorable.

Overall, Pacific Emporium’s Festive Afternoon Tea is a well-rounded option for a relaxed, festive catch-up. In particular, the sweet options stood out for their well-balanced flavours and sweetness.

Goodwood Park Singapore Christmas - Eat, Drink and Be Merry with Enchanting Selection of Festive Treats and Exclusive Dining Experiences

This Christmas, Goodwood Park Hotel marks its monumental 125th anniversary with a spectacular lineup of festive treats. An impressive collection that blends the hotel’s timeless culinary heritage with fresh, innovative flavours. Available for walk-in purchases at The Deli from 15 November to 26 December 2025, the selection spans hearty savoury centrepieces, playful sharing favourites and stunning desserts. Online pre-orders are also available via their festive site.

Among this year’s standout creations is the Steam-Baked Turkey stuffed with Chestnut, Ham and Vegetables, served uniquely with Yam Rice and Chef’s Special Chilli Sauce. This delightful Asian-inspired twist feels both nostalgic and comforting. The bird is tender and aromatic, while the accompanying chilli sauce adds a punch that sets it apart from typical takeaway turkeys.

Goodwood Park also introduces two versions of Turkey Pot Pie, reinvented with flair. The curry-spiced rendition is full-bodied and fragrant, while the creamy butternut squash version, with caramelised onions and cranberries, strikes a lovely balance of sweet and savoury. For something heartier, the Turkey Spinach Lasagne layers soft sheets of pasta with creamy spinach and turkey, making for a cosy, festive staple. The Snowy Nyonya Turkey Buns are a charming addition — pillowy-soft steamed buns wrapped around a moreish turkey filling, evoking a nostalgic Singaporean touch.

Meat lovers can look forward to the beautifully Roasted Australian Wagyu Ribeye with Yorkshire Pudding, Vegetables and Merlot Sauce. The ribeye is juicy with a satisfying crust, paired with airy Yorkshire pudding and a rich wine sauce that ties everything together.

Equally indulgent is the Slow-roasted Ibérico Pork Belly, roasted low and slow for over three hours with sherry vinegar and white wine. The result: immaculate crackling, luscious layers of fat and meat, and deep flavour. The sides — Potato Gratin with Gruyère and Parmesan, tangy pickled white cabbage, apple sauce, and smoked bacon-infused jus — complete the dish with satisfying richness and balance.

A classic staple, the Honey-glazed Boneless Ham with vanilla-pineapple sauce offers sweet, tender slices that appeal to all ages.

Back by popular demand, the DIY Turkey Popiah Set (up to 10 pax) remains a crowd favourite. It’s perfect for potlucks, bringing fun to the table with tender turkey breast, sweet turnip, eggs, peanuts, mushrooms, sambal and more — an interactive and flavour-packed way to celebrate together.

No Goodwood Christmas is complete without their star-studded dessert lineup. This year introduces the elegant Earl Grey Winter Sleigh Log Cake — a sophisticated creation featuring an Earl Grey crémeux with Jivara chocolate, pistachio sponge and raspberry compote resting on a crisp kunafa base. Encased in pistachio mousse and adorned with reindeer-shaped white chocolate décor, it delivers fragrance, crunch and creamy indulgence in every slice.

Another new creation, the Yuletide Chocolate Travel Cake is a superb option — rich, dense and intensely chocolatey, featuring Manjari chocolate cake, a vanilla-spiced apricot compote centre, and a glossy dark chocolate almond glaze. Its whimsical miniature log shape makes it ideal for gifting.

The Crisp-mas Pistachio Kunafa Tart (500g) is a visual and textural showstopper, combining caramelised pistachios, roasted kunafa, and silky pastry cream in a chocolate-sugar crust — reminiscent of the viral Dubai Chocolate flavour profile but elevated with Goodwood Park finesse.

For those who prefer something lighter, the Merry Berry Nutty Tart offers a refreshing mix of fruits and nuts atop almond cream and pastry cream — pretty, bright and delightfully festive.

In the spirit of the holidays, Goodwood Park Hotel will donate 10% of sales from Christmas log cakes and tarts to The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund, making each purchase a meaningful contribution.

Sheraton Towers Singapore - Festive Celebrations At The Dining Room

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.

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

BBQ Glazed Wagyu Rump

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.

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.

Seafood on Ice

Sushi and Sashimi

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

Cheese and Charcuterie Counter

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.

Parmesan Herb-crusted Maine Lobster

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

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

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.

Spiced Pumpkin Meringue Tart

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.
