The izakaya leans into warmth and seafood this season, setting the pace with tempura vegetable nori rolls, followed by pan-fried halibut in a tomato clam sauce, a crisp rice paper shrimp roll with chicken liver, and sweet shrimp sashimi rice finished with ikura. The meal concludes with either a Japanese apple crumble or pecan pie. It’s a tidy, contemporary Japanese take on holiday dining. Unfussy, detailed and designed for sharing.

The Astor turns its dining room into a full Christmas market this December, running a buffet that leans happily into abundance: miso-grilled Maine lobster tail served to every guest, a cold seafood spread ranging from oysters and crayfish to snow crab, and carving stations stacked with traditional roast turkey, roasted M7 wagyu, honey bone ham and porchetta. Beef Wellington appears from December 24 to 26, while raclette, 55cm sushi rolls, Japanese beef cutlet and an overachieving dessert village, complete with a giant Christmas log cake, churros and a live-assembled St. Honoré tower, keep things firmly in festive territory.
