Swapping cold shrimp cocktail for spicy prawn tawa masala, Frangipaani caters to epicureans who prefer to stick to Southeast Asian cuisine. None the less, some of Chef Ghanshyam Singh Gusain's creations see inventive twists. Take the chicken tenderloin encased in a 'cloud' of whipped egg white, for instance, or the tart containing gajar ka halwa, a traditional Indian sweet containing juicy carrots.

When asked to name his favourite dish on the festive menu, Chef Shyam says, "The dum ki raan (slow-cooked whole goat leg) is possibly the best thing. We submit our orders to our suppliers every single day, which means the kid is never ever frozen—this ensures the most succulent meat."

While Frangipaani's air-conditioned interior comfortably seats 94 pax, its alfresco terrace accommodates 20 more diners. The restaurant's festive menu is available from now until December 31, 2019.
