Roll up, roll up! Let us whet your appetite for a scrumptious Thanksgiving feast as we take you through some of the best menus in town. Even though Thanksgiving (28 November) isn’t widely celebrated in Singapore, there’s no reason why we can’t gather our family and friends to officially commence the festivities before we say hello to Christmas.
Park Bench Deli
17 November
Park Bench Deli’s launching its Thanksgiving festive menu with a massive Sunday roast feast. At just $20, you’ll get a choice of one main dish (porchetta, smoked beef pastrami or roasted turkey), toasted sourdough rye and three sides – a mix of mash potato salad, roasted root vegetables, roasted broccoli, mac and cheese or creamed spinach. Wash it down with natural wines at just $10 a glass. Stay tuned for more details about the full Thanksgiving menu!
