Palais de Chine Hotel presents two roasted fowl baskets for year end gatherings, each wrapped in the hotel’s signature eight treasure stuffing and delivered in a keepsake carrier. The larger offering contains a six kilogramme turkey, whilst the smaller holds a one point five kilogramme bird, both finished to golden, crackling perfection.
Inside each basket lies the thoughtful architecture of a complete festive meal. Alongside the bird sits house made cranberry compote and roasting jus, roasted mixed vegetables and buttered corn, a selection of nutted and soft breads, and a six inch classic American pumpkin pie. The composition speaks to the hotel’s understanding of seasonal celebration: substantial enough to anchor a table, refined in its proportions, designed for ease of enjoyment rather than kitchen labour.
The larger turkey basket serves four to six people and carries a certain generosity of gesture. The smaller bird suits gatherings of three to four, each arriving in its own woven carrier ready for collection from the hotel’s sixth floor tea salon, Le Thé.
Pre order runs from the first of November through the twenty eighth of December, with collection available from the fifteenth of November through New Year’s Eve. The hotel requires three days’ notice and full payment in advance. Telephone the hotel on 02 2181 9977 or 02 2181 9999 and ask for the tea salon.
