It’s that time of the year again. Recommendations in Taipei and New Taipei City for Christmas Turkey dinner?
Going value-oriented this time, so per plate under 2,000 would be great
That’s your value oriented.
No expert but thought a decent full-spread Xmas dinner in Taiwan went for 2-4K per plate?
I wouldn’t know that would be in my stratospheric price range.
Guy help us out here will you ?
I reckon this is a good starting point. (2018)
I’ve eaten the buffet at the Miramar before it was very good! Company paid.

Sheraton Taipei has excellent turkeys. If you reheat them at home, you can easily stay within the budget. I usually also get some fries from McDonald’s for a more balanced meal.

Looking for the complete spread. Night out. $1-2k per plate. Come on Jesus there must still be foreigners left on this board who live a little

We live. We just don’t waste and prefer to spend our money on better things.
Turkey just isn’t worth $2000/plate

Remind me to never ask you guys out for a beer
First, there is no x-mass in Taiwan unless you go for the commercial version. Second, a x-mass dinner is like any other dinner.

That’s not true. You can get real christmas if you hang out with Christians and Catholics. One of my best friends in Taiwan is protestant and I go see them every year in Kaohsiung.

I just worry that 2k is not enough for what you’re looking for. Even the Germans charge 3k a head for their goose dinner and that’s not even on Christmas Eve!
Have a look through these:
I usually cook for Christmas, but am unable to do so this year.
What are your recommendations for the best place to take a family out for Christmas dinner in Taipei? We prefer to stay away from pubs.
I already know about Frank’s BBQ. It is not on our list of options. Other ideas?
Thank you,

I guess we’ve probably left it too late but can anyone reccomend a restaurant for Christmas dinner in Taipei?
Anywhere would be ok, as long as it’s good food and plenty of drinks available.
To all the restaurateurs out there,
I’m wondering which of the eateries that cater to the foreign crowd are planning on having special meals for the Christmas holidays. Specifically, I’m looking to book a table for a group of about a dozen for Christmas Eve, so if anyone knows of a place that will be offering a turkey dinner, a holiday buffet, or anything having to do with the usual Western or European holiday fare, let me know. Thanks all.

Already overwhelmed with the search and the options. Any suggestions? Dine-in, not take-home. Buffet with alcohol would be ideal (my Thanksgiving away from home when I lived in China was a buffet at a brewery – it was a good time). If not, that’s okay. Interested in a range of prices. Please let me know your experiences!
(For the curious, I have been looking at Carnegie’s, Amba, Pig and Pepper. The Grand Hyatt is intriguing but probably way too expensive…)
We usually order a take-out turkey, but this year my friends and I are looking for something like a hotel Christmas buffet. On December 25th, about 20 of us. Any recommendations? We have some options for restaurant 3- course meal deals, but I’m kinda hoping for a no-holds barred eat-fest. I get Saturday off this year and I can’t believe it…
Hi,
I’m looking for a good restaurant to have Christmas dinner with my gf in Taipei, any suggestions?
I’m a British guy, looking for something which will remind me of Christmas dinner back home…I think turkey is essential but everything else could have an Asian twist
My family’s going for On Tap’s offerings this year. Had to pay a deposit to reserve a spot. But if that doesn’t impress us we may try Brass Monkey next year (I’m optimistic). I also noticed the Marriott ’s restaurant has a meal of some sort going. It’s a buffet except on the 24th and 25th, where it’s a set Christmas meal. No details on what that Christmas meal is so I didn’t go for it.
We used to get whole, cooked turkeys but they’re just too big. You can get turkeys in a hamper from a lot of t…
We went to Brass Monkey last year for an early Christmas dinner, food was not bad

Christmas dinner should be done at home. So time to check Ubereats for specials.
Catholics are Christians ,sorry , but this always bugs me. In fact Catholics spend more time talking about Jesus and Mary than anybody else.

Something you can buy on every street corner in Taiwan, necks, tongue and cheeks!
The protestants don’t have Mary to talk about.

early Christmas dinner
That just dinner in my opinion.
True, in the home country many restaurants just close for Christmas.
want to say it was around 1500…
