Holiday deliciousness and bountiful good cheer

Beloved traditional flavours and warm sentiments of the holiday season burst into bloom at Royal Orchid Sheraton Hotels & Towers, with a full season-long roster of sumptuous feasts and gala year-end festivities that will help make the celebration of 2018 a memorable family affair.

The procession of grand repasts includes all season-long Christmas set menu promotions featuring two variations with Carved Turkey with all the trimmings as mains option. While Giorgio's offers a starter of Gravlax on Rosti, second mains option of Pan seared Seabass fillet with prawns and vegetable saffron risotto and Panettone Trifle with apricot ricotta afters, Riverside grill starters with Chili, lime and ginger Barbecued Octopus Salad, Oven-baked Seabass fillet with balsamic reduction and mains option with Brandy sauced Christmas pudding dessert.

The celebrations continue at Feast restaurant with the Christmas Eve Grand Buffet Dinner, with Carving Corner serving up highlights Roast beef striploin, Turkey with trimmings and Salmon puff pastry.

Feast also plays host the family-friendly Christmas Day Buffet Brunch with seasonal specialties like Honey glazed Virginia Ham, Prime Rib, Carved Turkey with trimmings, Maine Lobster Thermidor and Marinated Leg of Lamb.

Both buffet events are brimming with enticing premium extras like fresh seafood, imported cheeses, sushi, salads, hot dishes, Thai favourites and much, much more, while Christmas-y desserts abound: there's the do-not-miss-it Stolen Bread, Christmas log cake and the absolute best milk-chocolate Brownie Cake we have ever tasted. Extra-special holiday treats like Cinnamon spiced Mulled Wine with fruits, Christmas pudding with brandy sauce and a dream-come-true Chocolate fountain complete the authentic holiday dining experience.

After the gifts have all been opened and the tinsel packed away, the merrymaking shifts to year's end countdown mode with the New Year's Eve Red Carpet Party by the River at Giorgio's Terrace featuring a International Buffet and Gala BBQ Dinner with 5-star dining and service plus live music and DJ beats to keep the night humming along. Meanwhile, Feast and Riverside Grill will host a tantalisingly taste-tempting International Buffet & BBQ Dinner, with seemingly endless offerings of premium-catch seafood, unlimited lobster and classic European festive season specialties.

Adding a welcome touch of local flavour to countdown night festivities, our award-winning Thai restaurant Thara Thong has prepared a Royal Cuisine Thai set menu, with a traditional-and-fusion menu featuring Seafood soup, Salmon mango salad and mains options 150-day Australian striploin in Panang sauce or grilled Maine lobster. Don't miss the hard-to-find Mah Haw ("galloping horse"), a savoury-sweet delicacy made with palm sugar, peanuts and minced chicken.

Enjoy the tranquil riverside setting with the legendary Chao Phraya flowing gently past, before bursts of colour light up the sky at the stroke of midnight as a dazzling fireworks display brings the year to an exciting and satisfying close. And for those 1/1/19 early birds, the New Year's Day International Breakfast Buffet at Feast is the perfect start to the year, with an irresistible wake-me-up spread of western and Asian breakfast favourites.
