Get ready for a classic Christmas feast with a French twist this festive season — bon appetit!

Ooh, la la! Brasserie Blanc Cheltenham has announced its glittering Christmas offering for the 2024 festive season — and there's plenty to get excited about...

For those looking for a party venue in the lead up to the big day, Brasserie Blanc's Christmas Party Menu is full of fancy French-inspired treats alongside Christmas classics — with three courses priced at £39.50 per person.

Starters include terrine grand-mere with apple and prune chutney, soused cucumber and garlic croutons; or a Devon crab croquette with brown crab sauce, winter coleslaw and seaweed; while the main course options feature duck leg confit with Madeira sauce, dauphinoise potatoes and red onion marmalade; or a traditional woodland-raised bronze turkey with chestnut stuffing, Brussels sprouts, rissole potatoes and port gravy.

Top it off with a pudding from the dessert menu with choices from a Basque cheesecake to a dark chocolate marquise.

Its showstopping selection for its Christmas Day Menu features six courses and a glass of Buck's Fizz for £99.95 per person, with children aged 12 and under dining for £49.95.

Tuck into a roasted mushroom and cep cream soup with a wild mushroom crostini to kick start your taste buds, before moving onto a starter of Jerusalem artichoke risotto or a duo of chalkstream trout with horseradish cream, dill pesto and trout caviar.

Then there's the classic turkey with trimmings, a Gressingham duck supreme or a monkfish, scallop and shellfish ragout for mains — with a beetroot wellington with truffle sauce for vegan diners.

A little pallet cleanser comes in the form of a refreshing pear sorbet, followed by the dessert selection which features a traditional Christmas pudding, a raspberry cranachan and a gilt chocolate feuilletine.

If there's still room left, graze on the final course of a festive cheese board full of dairy delights from a hearty Cropwell Bishop stilton to a creamy truffled Brillat-Savarin — top it all off with a cup of coffee or tea and a mince pie, of course!

A Christmas feast is nothing without a perfect wine accompaniment and Brasserie Blanc has introduced an exclusive offer for those who pre-order their wine pairings, with six bottles for the price of five and £10 off Lanson Champagne and £20 off Lanson Rose.

The Christmas Party Menu is available from Monday 25 November until Monday 23 December 2024, and any bookings made for Monday to Wednesday in the festive season with deposits paid before Thursday 31 October 2024 can secure a complimentary glass of fizz for up to 30 guests upon arrival, by quoting XMAS FIZZ when booking.
