The festive spirit at M World Hotel Petaling Jaya shines brighter than ever this year, with Indulge Coffee House transforming into a gourmet wonderland where the season’s flavours come alive. From lavish carveries to decadent desserts, every dish tells a story of indulgence and celebration.
A Feast to Begin With
The evening begins with an impressive charcuterie platter — a beautiful spread of cured meats, cheeses, and pickles that immediately sets a tone of sophistication. The chicken liver pâté deserves special mention for its smooth texture and deep, buttery richness, pairing wonderfully with crusty bread. For seafood lovers, the classic seafood chowder brings warmth with its creamy base, brimming with tender bits of prawn and clam.
The seafood on ice counter is an instant crowd-puller — think fresh oysters, snow crabs, mussels, scallops, and prawns glistening like jewels over crushed ice. The oysters, particularly, are clean and briny, best enjoyed with just a squeeze of lemon. A sushi bar nearby adds a Japanese flourish with neatly rolled maki and sashimi slices that are both fresh and flavourful.
The Carvery: Centrepiece of the Celebration
At the heart of the buffet lies the carvery — a temple of roasted perfection. The Golden Roasted Turkey impresses with its golden skin and moist, tender flesh, elevated by a tangy cranberry sauce that balances its richness. The Classic Beef Wellington is another standout — perfectly medium-rare beef encased in a flaky puff pastry, complemented by earthy mushroom duxelles and a luscious red wine jus.
Meanwhile, the Seafood Strudel surprises with its creamy seafood filling wrapped in buttery pastry — a creative alternative for those seeking something lighter. For local flair, the ‘Daging Dendeng’ offers a punchy, spicy-sweet kick, beautifully caramelised and redolent of festive nostalgia.
A World of International Flavours
Beyond the carvery, diners can savour a tapestry of global dishes — each with its own festive twist. The Spanish Seafood Paella is a vibrant display of saffron rice, prawns, and mussels, bursting with coastal zest. The Teriyaki Glazed Norwegian Salmon melts in the mouth, glazed to perfection with a sweet-savoury finish. The Baby Back Ribs, sticky and tender, are finger-licking good with their smoky barbecue glaze.
Equally memorable is the Herb-Brushed Rack of Lamb, which arrives perfectly pink and seasoned with rosemary — its aroma alone enough to draw a queue. For spice seekers, the Chicken Tikka Masala and Marinated Spicy Mango Salsa Spring Chicken bring just the right amount of heat and tropical tang.
The Theatre of Live Cooking
There’s something captivating about watching chefs whip up dishes right before your eyes. The Mongolian stir-fry station fills the air with smoky aromas as diners customise their own bowls, while the Spinach Pesto Ravioli is luxuriously creamy and freshly tossed. The Lamb Shawarma, sliced straight from the spit, is juicy and aromatic — a Middle Eastern treat done right.
At the grill, premium cuts like wagyu, lamb shoulder, and slipper lobsters are cooked to order. The wagyu, seared to medium, is particularly luscious — tender, buttery, and simply seasoned to let its quality shine.
Sweet Endings Worth Every Calorie
Dessert lovers will be delighted by a spread that’s nothing short of stunning. The Pecan and Pumpkin Pie is a warm, spiced comfort that tastes like Christmas on a plate. The Christmas Yule Log impresses with its moist sponge and rich chocolate ganache, while the Orange Chocolate Sablé provides a refreshing citrus contrast.
Don’t miss the deep-fried ice cream, which delivers an irresistible crunch before melting into creamy sweetness. The macarons and Éclairs are dainty and delicate, while the chocolate fountain remains a fun favourite for both kids and adults.
Festive Extras: From Tea to Toasts
For those seeking something lighter, the Christmas Tea Soirée at the Lobby Lounge offers delicate treats like Mini Savoury Chicken Pie and Cherry Yule Log Roll, all paired with fine teas — a perfect afternoon indulgence.
Meanwhile, the Holiday Sips & Sparkle menu adds a festive buzz with drinks like Xmas Fairy, a tropical coconut mocktail, and Santa Rina, a bold cocktail of vodka, rum, and blue curacao — both beautiful and seasonally spirited.
M World Hotel Petaling Jaya has curated not just a buffet, but a culinary experience that celebrates the best of the season — opulent yet welcoming, with flavours that bridge East and West. Whether you’re toasting to new beginnings or indulging in Christmas nostalgia, Indulge Coffee House makes this festive season truly sparkle.
