Stuff Yourself Like a Stocking at These Christmas Dinners
To paraphrase a few lines from Frank Sinatra's "Mistletoe and Holly", it's time again for caroling, Kris Kringle, merry greeting, and overeating. And with all the Christmas dinners and lunches happening on the Eve or the Day, you can rest assured you'll be stuffing more than a stocking on Christmas morning this year.
Multiple Days
EAST Beijing has prepared well for the 2023 holiday season. They’ll not only have Christmas Eve lunch and dinner at FEAST, but even a Christmas-themed afternoon tea and cake from Domain and turkey (6kg birds with sides, enough for six-ten) and other goodies for at-home dining. EAST will also be offering gingerbread house making classes for young guests at Domain, as well as three special holiday hampers replete with Panatoni bread, fragrant Christmas fruit pie and a variety of Christmas snacks.
