Feasts and Gifts: The Last Minute Christmas and New Year Food Ideas

It is Christmas tomorrow! If you plan to indulge in snacks and ice cream in your pajamas all day, we would like to suggest ditching that menu to explore a more exciting experience. This is a last-minute Christmas idea that you might want to consider: treat yourself and your family or friends to a nice hotel-standard lunch or dinner.

But what if you don’t really want to go out?

Stay home, we say. And let world-class Chefs prepare you a scrumptious feast that you can quickly unpack, cook, and ready the meal for your loved ones. As it happens, Hilton Petaling Jaya came out with an inventive way for all of us to celebrate Christmas and New Year in the comfort and safety of our own homes. In their Joy of Giving campaign, Hilton presents delectable feasts and gift boxes that will make any foodie swoon. Starting from RM98 nett, these special menus are designed to be shared and savoured at the dinner table. You have the takeaway option or dine in the comfort of your home on selected items with Bring Hilton Home.

An interesting post on Malaysia.

Eastern & Oriental (E&O) Hotel hotel located on Lebuh Farquhar, Penang is ready to host a lavish Christmas and New Year holiday feast with its Unlimited A La Carte Lunch and Dinner menus.

With the Unlimited A La Carte concept, guests are welcomed to indulge in the spread of food served by the friendly staffs on hand while adhering to the standard operating procedures (SOP) necessitated by the Government during this period of time.

Fortune Favors the Bold – Butterkicap

February 17, 2021 By Keith Leave a Comment

An informative post about Penang Malaysia.

At the beginning of every lunar new year – celebrated in several Asian countries and famously known for the Chinese New Year celebration aka Spring Festival, Chinese and Vietnamese communities worldwide light up with a fireworks display. Families gather for a reunion dinner. This year, however, may be different as the world is still battling the pandemic.

Despite the challenges, the Hilton Garden Inn KL South is determined to go ahead with its annual Chinese New Year offering – and who can blame them? The communities need an encouraging call to start the year fresh with positivity, mainly since the Year of the Ox represents diligence, honesty, strength, and determination. 

What sets them apart is that they understand the importance of honoring traditions, bringing families together, and the food’s significance at the reunion table. For example, fish at the dinner table represents ‘surplus’, signifying a wish for abundance; dumplings represent great wealth due to their shape like a Chinese gold coin, while noodles are all about longevity and smoothness. Not to mention the famous Malaysian Lou Sang, which is an opportunity for families and friends to make a toss for their wishes to come true.

Suppose the covid-19 situation is managed, and authorities have declared that it is safe for all Malaysians to venture out again. In that case, communities deserve its big, beginning of the year opportunity to clink glasses and make a toss for good fortunes. It is worth looking into Hilton’s Honor Traditions, Renew Fortunes offering at:
