Unique Christmas menus at 3 restaurants in Hanoi.

In fact, people in Western countries prefer dishes like roast duck, roast goose, roast stuffed pig, roast wild chicken, and various stuffed pies over the "iconic" turkey. Christmas dishes often carry their own meanings, but ultimately they all aim to express the hope for a prosperous, abundant, and peaceful new year.

With the holiday season and year-end parties fast approaching, Travellive would like to introduce three restaurants in Hanoi with menus and spaces suitable for readers to celebrate Christmas this year.

Feliz - serving two duck dishes for Christmas.

Feliz is a restaurant serving light appetizers and snacks in the Spanish style, with many traditional dishes, making it easy to choose a meal for a gathering with friends. In Spain, the habit of eating appetizers and snacks is very common, and they call them "tapas".

This year, the restaurant is launching a special Christmas menu. For those who are tired of familiar European dishes, Travellive recommends trying the novel Spanish tapas. These are all elaborately prepared dishes with unique flavors.

In its Christmas menu, the restaurant features a rather unusual duck tacos served with mango sauce and cream cheese. Additionally, French oysters, sourdough bread, and Iberico pork cheek are also among the dishes Feliz is offering this time. Besides the main pork dish, roasted duck with various sauces is also a good option for those looking for something different.

Up & Under - a cozy dinner with mulled wine

Up & Under is a suitable restaurant if you're planning a private date and enjoying wine on Christmas Day. To enjoy the food here, you'll need to go up to the 3rd or 4th floor of the building located on the bustling Trieu Viet Vuong street.

This Christmas season, Up & Under will be serving guests a glass of mulled wine. This is a traditional wine enjoyed by people in Western countries during the important Christmas season. It's made from wine, orange juice, orange zest, sugar, cinnamon, and other ingredients, depending on local tastes. For the end-of-year menu, the restaurant offers scallops, mushroom and chestnut soup, simple grilled lamb chops, and the familiar red wine-braised pears, a staple for Christmas.

According to Travellive, this menu features many traditional dishes and is suitable for readers who want to enjoy the familiar, warm flavors of Christmas.

Ushino Kura - Enjoying beef sushi on Christmas Day

Ushino Kura is a fine dining space specializing in serving premium Japanese beef dishes prepared to its own standards. For readers looking for a quiet restaurant for family gatherings, this is a suitable choice.

Not overly noisy, and without a menu featuring a wide variety of ingredients, Ushino Kura focuses on high-quality beef. However, for this festive season, the restaurant has incorporated some new and unique dishes such as beef rolls with scallops and beef sushi. Choosing seafood to pair with red meat is something few places attempt, as skillful preparation can overshadow the flavors of either dish.

One advantage of this restaurant is its perfectly balanced Christmas atmosphere, exuding the warmth and liveliness of the holiday season without losing its inherent tranquility. If you want to enjoy a meal and capture beautiful photos at the same time, this is a suitable choice.

Travellive hopes that with the suggestions above, readers can choose a suitable place to celebrate Christmas with friends and loved ones. We wish you a joyful and happy holiday season.
