Legend has it that in December, the month of Christmas, whether among friends, couples, or family, simply gathering together to exchange gifts and share the little moments from the past year can help sustain bonds. And during this heartwarming holiday, there’s no shortage of delicious food—especially gingerbread, candies, and the signature main dish: the “turkey feast”!
This year, major hotels have launched seasonally limited Thanksgiving feasts: Taichung Asia Pacific Hotel has specially selected imported turkeys to celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas, offering a uniquely flavorful roast turkey paired with chef-crafted cranberry sauce and classic chicken gravy. It also comes with a rich cheese platter featuring double cauliflower and spicy garlic chestnuts. This bountiful and delightful gift basket set brings joy and sharing to the festive season.
Featuring an authentically American festive turkey, the chef has chosen a tender turkey weighing about 4.5 kilograms, stuffed with pearl barley, walnuts, raisins, various fresh vegetables, and spices. The skin is brushed with herb-infused cream and slow-roasted to allow the rich seasonings to penetrate every bite of the meat. This season-limited roast turkey feast is priced at NT$2,999 per portion, suitable for 6 to 8 people, and for an additional NT$300, you can purchase a pumpkin pie. Reservations are now open, with pick-up starting from November 25. For reservations, please call (04)2303-12345.
Additionally, Taipei Far Eastern Hotel is gearing up for a joyful Christmas, with its various dining outlets offering a rich and diverse Christmas feast on December 24 and 25. Options include pastries, Christmas dinners, and gift baskets to meet consumer needs. The classic Christmas dessert buffet starts at NT$550. This year’s Christmas star lets you enjoy five mini versions of traditional Western Christmas desserts all at once: English fruitcake, Italian panettone, German stollen, hazelnut chocolate cupcake, and cranberry cupcake—all with authentic flavors that are sure to be a hit.
On December 24 and 25, Marco Polo Restaurant, Marco Polo Lounge, ibuki Japanese Cuisine, Shanghai Drunken Moon, Palace Cantonese Restaurant, and Far Eastern Café buffet will all present exquisite Christmas feasts. Between 18:45 and 19:30 on both evenings, the restaurants will also feature performances of Christmas carols by children’s choirs—adorable and entertaining, adding even more cheer to your meal.
