Sponsored: A lavish Christmas banquet from Dhs250? You’ll find it at the Roda Al Bustan…

The festive season in Dubai can be overwhelming. With so many different celebration options, where do you even start?

Let us point you towards Roda Al Bustan in Garhoud. This reliable hotel will be transforming into a winter wonderland over the next month, offering festive feasts and turkey takeaways at some pretty fantastic prices.

On December 24, Roda’s all-day dining restaurant Makan is hosting a festive dinner from 7pm to midnight. The international buffet starts from a very reasonable Dhs250 including soft drinks, with a 50 per cent discount for children aged six to 12.

Makan will also be the place to be on December 25, with a festive brunch served up between 12.30pm and 4pm. Like the Christmas Eve dinner, you’ll be able to take your pick from cuisines from all over the world, starting from just Dhs250.

Prefer a more meaty feast? Then head to steakhouse Roda Grill from 7pm to midnight on December 24 to enjoy a five-course set menu for Dhs600 (or Dhs800 with grape pairing). They will also be hosting a New Year’s Eve dinner, which costs Dhs950 for a five-course set menu including house beverages.

Or you can book your spot at the hotel-wide New Year’s Eve dinner, which consists of a street market festive buffet featuring Arabic, Thai, Japanese and French specialities. The dinner will cost Dhs800 and run from 7pm to 11.30pm, followed by an after-party in the lobby with live entertainment including a DJ, cultural shows, and dance performances.

Roda Al Bustan currently has an early bird offer where if you book either of the New Year’s Eve dinners before December 20, you’ll receive a discount of up to 40 per cent.

Celebrating at home? You can choose from Roda’s festive menu of delicious stollen, cakes, cookies, gift hampers, and best of all, a turkey takeaway with all the trimmings and sides from Dhs650. Once you’ve placed your order, Roda’s talented team of chefs will get to work, and your goodies will be delivered to your doorstep when you want them.
