Sarood Hospitality has unveiled the ‘Make It A December to Remember’ campaign with a four-day festive preview (from September 16-19) at The Duck Hook and Hillhouse Brasserie. Because, let’s face it, we’re all looking for some much-needed cheer this year.
The Duck Hook is offering a Christmas plate with all the trimmings, and its popular ‘Roast in the Post’ service with a festive twist ahead of Christmas bookings. With par-cooked boneless Christmas turkey and stuffed legs delivered right to your door, the feast is available in portions of two, four, six, eight and ten. The order includes sides such as honey-roasted parsnips, duck fat roast potatoes, Brussels sprouts, sausages wrapped in veal bacon and braised red cabbage. Desserts include sticky toffee pudding, apple crumble with custard and panettone bread and butter pudding with custard, and Christmas pudding. The post-service also comes with homemade mince pies and festive crackers. Additionally, diners can order sweet treats including a DIY gingerbread house kit, homemade mince pies, Yule log and gingerbread men.
The Christmas plate is available for four days only for AED135 per person. The roast turkey is priced from AED399.
