Gear up for the Christmas festivities as we invite you to indulge in a Gastronomic Journey from around the globe. For starters, book a reservation at the newest kid in the block, Aquanova.

Other items to check out include Stuffed Tomato Chinoise, the Gratinated Japanese Dory, and the Peranakan inspired Laksa Seafood Skewer.  For a special twist to the regular turkey, we recommend slow braised turkey roll with stuffed Chorizo sausages at Muchos Mexican Bar & Restaurant, served with roast beef and seasonal greens. Fill your tummy with endless goodies at Senor Santos as they serve up Brazilian BBQ Buffet and the traditional turkey or conquer the Genghis spirit with an unlimited serving of Mongolian fresh grill at The TENT. 

Step in to the holiday mood with a little party indulgence. At Clarke Quay, Christmas Drinks come in all shapes and taste. Send your taste buds to a new high at The Chupitos Bar with their wide variety of specially concocted Christmas drinks like The Grinch Shot and Candy Cane Martini.  From Attica to Zirca, Clarke Quay is where the party never stops!

Clarke Quay doesn’t slow down for the holidays and those looking for something to do over the festive season have plenty of options. Enjoy a little retail therapy at Clarke Quay’s Christmas Bazaar (25 & 26 November / 9 & 10 December) where you will find a fabulous selection of unique and irresistible gift ideas perfect for your loved ones this holiday season. Have fun taking photographs with our Christmas characters and look out for the 11 meter Heineken Social Christmas Tree (17 – 26 December) made out of 48 interconnecting LCD screens at the Central Fountain Square.  Offering a kaleidoscope of diverse social engagement for those who want to join in the festive celebrations in the Heineken way, the highlight of the tree is the Virtual Choir which will feature melodic voices of carolers from around the world who have come together virtually to harmonise the “12 Days of Christmas”.
