The festive season is just around the corner, which means that most of us will be dining out with family and friends to enjoy what the island’s top chefs have prepared for us this year. But if you’d rather spend it at home with your loved ones, there’s no need to spend all day labouring in the kitchen when you can still indulge in a delectable Christmas spread that can be delivered right to your doorstep.
Yes, that’s right. The chefs have also been busy ensuring you eat well at home with these exclusive delivery and takeaway menus that will suit your party theme—whether it’s a grand celebration with friends or a cosy gathering with the family. Here are five Tatler-approved options to make your holiday feasting even memorable.

Wishing you were in Italy for the Christmas break? Bring home a slice of that experience with Prego’s Natale Christmas Bundle, which feeds a family of four. Its new Italian chef David Bizzarri has crafted an eight-dish spread that delivers the essence of a holiday feast to your table.
Get started with the creamy air-flown Puglia burrata cheese 'artigiana,' paired with heirloom tomato salad, Tuscan kale pesto, and aquaponic greens from the hotel’s rooftop farm. A tagliere platter follows, laden with the finest Italian cold cuts and cheeses like Parma ham, gorgonzola and parmigiano reggiano.
For the mains, heartier dishes include polpette—succulent pork sausage meatballs in marinara sauce—and a decadent homemade lasagne with Wagyu beef and porcini mushrooms. Finally, indulge in festive desserts, including a rich Basque parmesan cheesecake.

For an Asian-inspired Christmas feast at home, you can’t go wrong with Violet Oon Singapore, which is offering a selection of festive party trays to spice up your home parties. Popular favourites include the dry laksa, ngor hiang, beef rendang as well as the shepherd’s pie. The latter is Violet Oon’s iconic dish from the 1980s, which the team brought back this year for a merrier Christmas feast. What you get is a platter of creamy layers of mashed potatoes interspersed with slow-braised minced beef, and blanketed with a crisp and golden brown crust.

3. Meadesmoore
What we like about Meadesmoore’s takeaway offerings is that you have the option to choose your main dish: the turkey set (which serves four to six) or the tomahawk set (which is ideal for two to four). A more classic option, the former sees succulent turkey breast stuffed with chestnut and topped with shaved winter truffles. The latter is equally enticing with the Wagyu beef charcoal-grilled until deliciously smoky, and served with a medley of mushrooms and a diane sauce.
And to make it an even bigger feast, both sets come with Valencian orange and kale salad, truffle roasted Kipfler potatoes, and a traditional pear frangipane.

Those in search of a festive experience with a touch of umami can order the festive bento sets from The Gyu Bar. The highlight is the A4 Miyazaki sirloin bento, featuring a premium Wagyu cut renowned for its rich, buttery flavour and skilfully cooked until juicy and tender. This delightful bento showcases a charming arrangement of rice shaped like a Christmas tree, topped with ikura, diced takuan, tamagoyaki and cucumber.
Enhance your dining experience and can opt for the flame-torched Miyazaki Wagyu sirloin as an add-on. For those who enjoy surf-and-turf, consider adding Hokkaido king scallops prepared aburi-style or unagi kabayaki.
