This holiday season, Clove invites you to relish some of the most tantalising global flavours with its glorious seafood selection and their “vitality and aquaponics salad bar”—a salad bar made atas with aquaponics greens, some cheese and Mediterranean dips. Of course, they’ll also bring their Christmas classics to the table, with roasted turkey and maple glazed gammon ham featuring in their carving station. You can also expect local delights such as a rich seafood laksa at a live DIY station.
For desserts, we’re looking at yule logs, chestnut coffee hazelnut praline choux puffs, petit chocoflan, Christmas macarons, Christmas chocolate pralines and more. Not forgetting warm Swiss chocolate cake with vanilla sauce! Pair that with their assorted ice creams and what more could you ask for?
But what I’m most excited about is their Festive Chocolate Buffet happening on Sundays, which is basically their festive buffet but with chocolate dominating the dessert selections. As someone with a sweet tooth and a perpetual craving for chocolate, this sounds like an absolute dream! 55% Dark Chocolate Hazelnut Praline Sable, 72% Grand Cru Chocolate Yule Log, anyone?

7. Estate, Hilton Singapore Orchard (from $82++)
View this post on Instagram
In August earlier this year, my family visited Estate to celebrate my mum’s birthday. Expectations were high, and we weren’t disappointed. Even as I was being led to our table, I knew this was going to be a good buffet from their selection of cheeses alone. The cheese wheels seemed to take up an entire wall! Throw in a seasonal avocado bar, fresh oysters, hearty cuts of sashimi, more desserts than I had stomach space for, and I was a very happy customer that day.
This Christmas, Estate is adding Foie Gras de Canard, Roasted Turkey, Black Angus Beef Stroganoff, Tomahawk, and Festive Yule Logs to their menu, among tons of other dishes. From my experience, the food at Estate is excellent—sure, I liked some dishes more than others, but there wasn’t any dish that I didn’t like. I bet their festive offerings, too, are going to hit the spot.
Food aside, one unique point about Estate is that they have roving entertainers who’ll visit each table and entertain you while you eat. We had a magician come to ours that day, performing a series of tricks that for the life of me I couldn’t figure out. He was a warm, friendly presence and didn’t feel at all like the sort of entertainment that intruded on a meal; the magician was very much part of the entire favourable experience at Estate.
This Christmas 2024, festive carollers, and Santa are joining their roving magicians by way of entertainment. Even the single magician who visited our table that day brightened the atmosphere, so I can only imagine the yuletide joy carollers and Santa are going to bring too!
If I’ve convinced you to give Estate’s festive buffet a try this Christmas season, here are your options:
Available all December
- Festive Lunch Buffet: $82++ per person
- Festive Dinner Buffet: $118++ per person
- Festive Sunday Brunch: $168++ per person

10. Basilico, Conrad Singapore Orchard (from $148++)
View this post on Instagram
Basilico is another buffet restaurant I’ve visited before—a few times, in fact. Unlike many hotel buffets, their buffet isn’t international. You’re not going to find Asian dishes here, but what you will find is fantastic Italian cuisine. From pizzas to pastas, Basilico doesn’t disappoint when it comes to authentic Italian fare. I made the mistake (again and again!) of visiting on a weekday for brunch—this buffet doesn’t come with access to their famed cheese room that’s home to over 40 cheeses. Without this cheese room experience, I find that their cheese selection on the weekday lunch buffet feels quite limited (especially compared to Estate’s!). Some desserts were also a miss for me, but they made up for the misses with the desserts that were a hit—the good stuff is really good at Basilico.
This festive season, Basilico is bringing a holiday twist to their Italian-inspired buffet. Their festive menus include 12 hours slow braised lamb leg and a smoked paprika and prosecco marinated roasted turkey that’s stuffed with chestnut, forest mushroom and cacioricotta cheese. *drools* Sign me up for an Italian Christmas!

Best credit cards to use at Christmas buffets
Christmas buffets aren’t cheap, so you’ll want to come prepared with the right cashback credit card.
These general, unlimited cashback ones are great for signing for the whole group. There’s no minimum spend either so they’re perfect for one-off expenses like Christmas dinners.
Pro tip: Don’t use your typical dining credit card like the Citi Cash Back Card, because most hotel restaurants won’t be recognised as a dining merchant. They’ll still be classified under hotels instead of restaurants. That’s why we’ve recommended catch-all unlimited cashback cards like the ones below!
Alternatively you can use a miles card that can earn you rewards points which can be exchanged for shopping vouchers and the like.
