If staying at home with the in-laws or family and cooking up a storm for hours on the 25th isn’t really tickling your Christmas fancy, worry not – we’re here to help.
With hectic schedules and much-needed time off, baking, prepping and hosting aren’t on everyone’s wish list this year.
So to help you out, we picked a list of establishments around Montreal that want to wine and dine you this Christmas Day.
Maison Boulud
Always a festive favourite among Montrealers, the Ritz Carlton’s Maison Boulud is luxurious, cozy and perfect to celebrate Christmas Day brunch. Taking place in their stunning Oval Room on December 25, expect nothing short of the finest foods and atmosphere.
Damas
Parc Avenue’s highly rated Syrian restaurant will be open on Christmas offering a truly unique and exotic menu to spice things up a little.
Casino de Montréal’s ‘Le Montréal’
The Casino’s ‘Le Montreal’ restaurant will be offering a refined, non-traditional menu to celebrate Christmas with a three-course meal starting at $45. Savour a wide range of dishes concocted by their renowned chefs while enjoying a breathtaking view of downtown. Hit up a game of Blackjack after – maybe you’ll get lucky this Christmas.
