ENCHANTED WONDERS OF SHANGRI-LA KUALA LUMPUR

Exceptional festive dining awaits across Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur, where Lemon Garden, Arthur’s Bar & Grill, Lobby Lounge and Shang Palace unveil their own holiday magic.

 
We had a preview of Lemon Garden’s culinary theatre where a seasonal cast unfolds to enchant us amidst a green and gold oasis, all dressed up for the holidays yet rooted in the restaurant’s signature garden-inspired tranquility.

 
A dazzling tableau of bright yellow accents glint like winter sunlight against the icy shimmer of a lavish seafood spread. Here, the stars of the ocean take centre stage with lobsters piled high, freshy shucked plump oysters, king crab legs, mussels, prawns and even snails.

The Japanese counter beckons with sumptuous sushi, sashimi and hand-rolled maki, similar to edible jewels gleaming under warm lights, drawing diners who appreciate purity, craft and restraint.

 
Then comes a jubilant seasonal favourite — a Halal-certified, locally sourced whole roasted turkey stuffed generously with truffle and foie gras — anchors the Jolly Festive Feast. Nearby, a show-stopping surf-and-turf Wellington steals the spotlight: roasted Australian beef tenderloin layered with lobster mousse and sheathed in golden puff pastry, the kind of dish that demands applause before the first slice is carved.

Around it, a constellation of sumptuous specialities competes for attention: buttery New Zealand lamb, prime Black Angus tomahawk ribs, salmon coulibiac, scallop ceviche with citrus, and even a dedicated caviar bar for those who crave a touch of indulgence.

 
Bursting with vibrant flavours and culinary heritage, the Chinese section conjures up heaps of chilli crabs, mini bowls of nutritious double-boiled soups, made-to-order noodles, roasted meats, braised sea cucumber and fried rice.

 
Dessert is a veritable Garden of Eden where outdoorsy elements and fresh greenery frame a wonderland of sweets. Meringue and macaron towers rise like whimsical sculptures whilst arrayed around them are rows of dainty entremets, chocolate yule log with candied chestnuts and spiced berries, a decadent burnt eggnog cheesecake, fruity stollen and huge bottles of traditional Christmas cookies.

 
In addition, two flowing chocolate fountains surrounded by marshmallows, fresh fruit and candies stand tall. Icy treats of house-made ice creams with every imaginable topping and Malaysian ais kacang and colourful trays of kuih ensure the celebration feels both global and deeply local.

 
At Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur, this festive season is a captivating journey of enchanted wonders, bound artfully with vivid flavours, culinary craftsmanship and holiday magic.

ENCHANTED WONDERS CHRISTMAS CHARITY TREE

A magnificent rotating ten-tiered Christmas “tree” stands proudly in Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur’s main lobby, bearing testament to the hotel’s unwavering commitment to supporting children in need through its Embrace the Gift of Life initiative.

This year, the charity tree consists of handcrafted Whimsical Ornaments designed and handcrafted by award-winning Pastry Artist Chef Wayne Siow and his team. They spent over 600 hours to complete the 40 Years of Care decorations.

At the tree-lighting ceremony, General Manager of Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur, Daniel Kaeflein said, “The Enchanted Wonders Christmas Charity Tree is a symbol of hope, compassion, and community. For four decades, the Embrace the Gift of Life programme has transformed lives, and it is our privilege to continue this legacy during this special season.”

Kaeflein also presented mock cheques to representatives from Gleneagles Hospital Kuala Lumpur and Pantai Hospital Kuala Lumpur, whose steadfast support has been crucial to the programme’s success. Distinguished guests such as Dr Lim Miin Kang, Consultant Paediatrician at Gleneagles Hospital, and Dr Siti Laura Mazalan, Paediatric Cardiac Surgeon at Pantai Hospital, joined in for the tree lighting ceremony.

 

Earlier, refugee children from the UNHCR community and children with special needs from Taman Megah Home (Pusat Penjagaan Kanak-Kanak Cacat Taman Megah) were treated to a Christmas High Tea at Lemon Garden.
