Planning Christmas at Rotunda
Creating our Christmas menus starts months before the first festive booking arrives. Our kitchen team looks at the ingredients coming into season, what’s available from our own farm and trusted suppliers, and how these can come together across our Christmas menus.
The result is a collection of menus designed for different types of Christmas dining in King’s Cross, from drinks and canapés in the bar to relaxed group dining, sharing menus and plated Christmas dinners.
At the heart of it all is our farm-to-plate approach, connecting the ingredients on the menu back to where they come from and putting provenance at the centre of the Christmas dining experience.
Seasonal British Ingredients
Seasonality is central to our Christmas menus. Winter is a great time for rich, comforting flavours, with British produce bringing depth and warmth to our festive dishes.
One of the most distinctive parts of the Rotunda kitchen is our connection to Corneyside Farm, which is owned by Rotunda. Meat comes directly from the farm to our own butchery at Rotunda, where it is prepared and hung on site before being used in our menus.
This farm-to-plate approach gives us a close connection to the produce we serve and allows our chefs to make the most of the meat, from the way it is butchered through to how it appears on the Christmas menu.
Alongside our own farm-reared meat, seasonal vegetables, British cheeses and carefully selected ingredients feature across our festive dishes.
