Christmas and New Year's Feast @ Dorsett Grand Subang

Christmas is a season of giving and sharing. For me, it is also a season for lots of feasting opportunities! If spreading joy is what you want to do for Christmas, then a festive spread always does the job! Dorsett Grand Subang aims to add happiness through the satisfaction of their customers' gut with their halal Christmas and New Year buffet at Terazza Brasserie.

At Dorsett Grand Subang for a sumptuous Christmas dinner

Christmas on bread

Dorsett Grand Subang profers a delicious range of must-haves for Christmas. The roasted turkey, roasted prime rib, yule log cakes and snowy desserts will definitely get you salivating at the sight them. However, getting to the main dishes is a little challenging for me. Scroll down and I'll tell you why.

The carvery counter awaits with the most celebratory dish- the roasted turkey

Roasted whole turkey with giblet gravy, cranberry sauce and chestnut stuffing

Roased beef with mushroom sauce and peppercorn sauce.
Roasted prime ribs will delight the Christmas and New Year spread

The thing about following the order of appetizers, mains and dessert is that you cannot get to the mains as fast as you want to when the appetizers are so good! Chef Zainal Ahmad definitely deserves a praise for putting in as much effort in the appetizers as in the main dishes. His creations have a fresh and fruity theme by balancing savoury and sweetness from fruits. I indeed do not mind coming for a second round just to enjoy the appetizers.

Seafood on ice with Australian oysters, New Zealand mussels, bamboo lala and scallops

The crunchy texture and sweetness of the prawn meat is a testimony of its freshness

Salmon and cod tataki with silver onion

Mango seafood

Refreshing prawns and seasoned fruits

Guests can expect unique creations that is revealed only on Christmas Eve, Christmas, New Year's Eve and New Year.

Some of the chef specialties that make my mouth water just by the name of it are:

Classic Chicken Liver Pate

Smoked Norwegian Salmon with Classic Condiment

Selection of Carviar and Blini with Classic Condiments

The festive spread orchestrated by Chef Zainal Ahmad, head chef of Dorsett Grand Subang

Sweeten up with their array of Christmas desserts that just add to the happiness of the festivity. The bread pudding with vanilla sauce did not stand a chance to survive long after it was dished out from the bakery and even after rounds of replenishment. Certainly a favourite among regular guests. My soul was bathed in bliss with the chocolate fountain! Other palate sweeteners were either prettily covered with 'snow' or adorably bedecked in the mood of Christmas. 

Christmas intricacies

The traditional Yule Log Cake

Festive desserts that injects the Yuletide season in you

Let it snow on the Gingerbread Crusted Cheese Cake

The chocolate fountain!

Chocolate praline

The signature bread and butter pudding with vanilla sauce is a hit among guests.
It didn't survive long and it didn't wait for me even after every replenishment!
