Christmas Day lunch specials in Bengaluru
It may not be a white Christmas in Bengaluru, but Chophouse by the Biere Club, is presenting an English-inspired Christmas. Chef Shaun Kenworthy has whipped up classic starters such as smoked salmon caviar on mini crumpets, scotch quail eggs, fresh figs with blue cheese and fresh brandied chicken livers on toast.
Follow these up with traditional pepper roast beef tenderloin, roast pork with apple cider sauce or roast turkey with cauliflower puree. Vegetarians need not despair — a decadent jackfruit, lentil and root vegetable moussaka is among the vegan options on the menu.
Needless to say, Christmas pudding flambé with hot brandy sauce as well as spiced eggnog, winter ales and mulled wine will round up your meal.
The Christmas menu will continue throughout the holiday season from 12pm to 1am. For reservations, call 099867 69776.
This all-day casual bar gets a touch of the holiday fever with their Christmas day specials. Start with a green grinch salad of baby greens, walnuts and apple with raspberry vinaigrette before moving on to pistachio crusted sea scallops served in a butter garlic sauce or a mini shepherd’s pie.
There is a choice of Santa’s spinach and ricotta cannelloni, a North Pole pan-seared salmon served with sauteed Swiss chard, artichoke and citrus couscous, grilled French chicken breast with duchess potatoes and steamed greens or Rudolph’s rack of lamb chops with green pea mash and hasselback potatoes as accompaniments.
If you have space for dessert, indulge in a holiday honey panna cotta or a merry apple walnut cheesecake. Apart from eggnog and mulled wine, Daysie’s Christmas Day cocktails include a Merry Berry Bliss of white rum and homemade raspberry syrup, and Santa’s Sip with gin, homemade spices and syrups, lime juice and egg.
