Christmas is basically the it-girl of seasonal holidays. The hype kicks in early — as streets brighten up with enough fairy lights to warm an icy heart, and carols blast with a kind of wholesomeness that could even your grumpy uncle crack a smile. With all this fanfare, who could resist giving in to all the merry-making?
And with Christmas dinners at the heart of the celebration, we know choosing the perfect restaurant is no small matter. Nothing short of a succulent roast, and an over-the-top chocolate log cake can satisfy both the belly and the soul. So if you’re not sure where to go, these restaurants will have you humming Andy Williams’ “It's the most wonderful time of the year” in contentment.
Royal Albatross
Set sail and get swept away in the festive spirit aboard Royal Albatross’s Christmas cruise. Or perhaps you just want to reenact that one dining scene in Pirates of the Caribbeans that’s got everyone salivating. Whatever the reason, this colonial style tall-ship will have you feasting like a 15th Century monarch.
Choose between a 4-course meal, 7-course meal, or a Christmas buffet as you embark on a 2.5-hour ocean voyage. And if the sea breeze and stunning views aren’t enough to impress, there’s live entertainment on board to keep the holiday spirits sailing high.
Bonus: Throw in some aquatic adventures while you’re in the area as Sentosa’s newly revamped Oceanarium is just begging to be visited! And If you do decide to hang around, here are some great supper options to refuel after your explorations!

Meadesmoore
The quaint, dimly-lit interior and tall arched-windows of this steakhouse sets the perfect mood for a romantic Christmas dinner. And any steak connoisseurs that’s dined here will likely agree that this place does not play around when it comes to proteins.
It’s definitely a splurge, but I’ll happily let their Sanchoku Wagyu Tomahawk MS4/5 drain my bank account any day. Tender and bursting with flavour, it may not be your traditional Christmas roast, but it’s delicious enough to make you consider swapping out turkeys for good.
