Looking for an unforgettable Christmas Day dining experience that doesn’t cost the earth?

Minori Restaurant in Hatch End is serving up one of London’s most affordable Christmas menus – a three-course festive lunch for just £27.50.

Think bold flavours, warm Italian hospitality, and a price that defies festive dining norms. In a city where Christmas Day meals often tip the £100 mark, Minori is proving that great food and exceptional service don’t have to break the bank.

Minori’s Christmas menu blends the best of Italian cuisine with festive classics, delivering dishes that are equal parts comforting and exciting. Expect the familiar festive favourites, but with a signature Italian twist. Highlights include:

Starters

Crispy Mozzarella Arancini: Golden-fried saffron-infused risotto balls filled with creamy mozzarella, served with a bold, spicy tomato sauce.
Fritelle della Zia: Lightly battered courgette slices, perfectly fried and delicately arranged on a bed of peppery rocket leaves.

Mains:

Traditional Roast Turkey: A Christmas classic, served with all the trimmings, from fluffy roast potatoes to seasonal vegetables and rich gravy.
Stinco di Agnello Brasato: Tender, slow-braised lamb shank bathed in a flavourful gravy and accompanied by fresh, seasonal sides.
Lasagna di Cinghiale e Porcini: Layers of velvety pasta, wild boar ragù, earthy porcini mushrooms, creamy béchamel sauce, and aged parmesan, baked to perfection.
For pizza lovers, enjoy Minori’s signature Neapolitan pizza like the Pizza San Gennaro topped with fiordilatte mozzarella, sweet cherry tomatoes, briny olives, fragrant garlic, and a kick of fresh chillies.

Desserts:

Decadent Chocolate Fondant: Warm, rich chocolate cake with a molten centre, served alongside creamy vanilla gelato.
Festive Tiramisu: Minori’s holiday twist on the classic Italian dessert, featuring layers of spiced mascarpone and delicate coffee-soaked biscuits.
Traditional Christmas Pudding: A quintessential Christmas treat, drizzled with silky, indulgent brandy sauce.

At just £27.50 for three courses, it’s no wonder Minori’s tables are among the most sought-after in town this Christmas

With the average Christmas Day dining experience in London costing upwards of £80, Minori’s £27.50 three-course menu is an unrivalled standout. While many establishments offer basic menus at high prices, Minori delivers a thoughtfully crafted selection that combines value with quality.
