Welcome to the Christmas 2024 edition of Eat Drink Dine, where we’re embracing all the warmth, wonder, and seasonal flavours that make this time of year so magical. As the holidays draw near, our hearts and kitchens fill with festive cheer, and the joy of gathering with loved ones brings the best excuse to indulge in the tastes of the season. We’re thrilled to bring you a culinary celebration that combines tradition with inspiration to make this Christmas unforgettable.

For those hosting holiday dinners, our tips for a perfect Christmas table setting will help you create an inviting, memorable ambiance. And if you’re planning an intimate gathering or even a cozy night in, we’ve included some creative nibbles and snacks that make even the smallest celebrations feel special.

If you still need some inspiration for a festive dessert, head to page 26 & 27 where you can find a decadent dessert from Rob Ball, our resident chef. We also have plenty of ideas for cocktails and mocktails that will elevate your gatherings with a splash of festive flair which can all be found on our Eat Drink Dine website.

As we wrap up another year, we’re grateful for the opportunity to be part of your culinary adventures. May this Christmas bring you joy, flavour, and beautiful moments around the table.

Here’s to sharing meals, making memories, and savouring every taste. Wishing you and yours a very merry Christmas!

Warm wishes,

Eat Drink Dine
