christmas dinner kl

The calendar turns like clockwork, and Christmas is peeking through. So is Mariah Carey as she clears her throat to belt out annual jingles, to the dismay of some people. There’s no reason not to be merry this year. Look at how far we’ve come, considering all the things we’ve had to overcome: Covid-19, global instability, and a dwindling economy. Sure, these things are still very much realities, but at least we made it through another year right? This calls for a celebration! And no celebration is as joyous and ceremonial as a scrumptious Christmas dinner and/or lunch in KL and PJ.

Throw an unforgettable Christmas dinner in KL with a killer view to boot.

But besides the view, Trace’s festive spread is equally mesmerising. Chef Tai Ridhwan channels his culinary expertise through a menu in which 90% of the dishes are crafted using locally sourced ingredients. For starters, you’ll find Christmas classics like roast turkey paired with sides like garlic-mashed pumpkins and grilled asparagus as well as baked salmon wellington. But if your tastebuds lean toward Asian flavours, the lamb biryani and butter chicken duo is an absolute treat.
