OMG! Is it Christmas already at Xintiandi? I found a nice Western restaurant while shopping with friends. Not only is it full of Christmas vibes, but the food is also delicious. I had to try it! 🎄It's only the end of November, but the Christmas atmosphere is already strong here. The blue and gold Christmas tree at the entrance is so dreamy! The whole restaurant is beautifully decorated, and there are many foreign guests, making it very international. 🔔Spinach and Artichoke Dip A popular appetizer abroad, made with low-calorie, low-fat spinach and artichokes, and cheese and cream. Served with crispy bread, it's a comforting taste. 🔔Caramel Butter Fig Pie I chose this dessert, which took 15 minutes to serve. The caramel flavor is strong, and the sweetness is just right. It contains fresh, large figs. A heartwarming dessert. 🔔Christmas Roast Turkey Of course, you have to have roast turkey for Christmas. The chicken is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, served with fresh vegetables and freshly fried fries. It comes with two sauces, and I personally prefer the cranberry sauce, which is sweet. 🔔Tiger Prawn Seafood Pasta This seafood pasta is full of ingredients, including tiger prawns, salmon, clams, squid, and more. The sweet and sour tomato sauce blends into the chewy noodles, making it delicious. 🔔Hot Mulled Wine This weather is perfect for a glass of hot mulled wine. Their mulled wine is also full of Christmas vibes, with added cranberries. The cinnamon flavor is strong, and it tastes sweet and sour. 📍No. 11, Lane 181, Taicang Road, Shanghai ⏰11:00-02:00

It’s Christmas season again, and the Christmas 🎄 atmosphere in Xintiandi is really strong. The most popular one is this 8-year-old western restaurant [The Refinery], which is packed with people both indoors and outdoors. The Christmas decorations with blue and gold as the main color scheme cover the entire door; an oversized blue and gold Christmas tree 🎄 inside is dazzling and looks very photogenic in any shot 📷. Order a Christmas limited edition dish to feel the Christmas 🤶 atmosphere in advance. Spinach and hot artichoke dip 🍞 A very popular appetizer. Fresh spinach and artichoke hearts are pureed, sprinkled with cheese, and spread on crispy bread. The cheese is rich and mixed with the fresh aroma of vegetables and spices. Caramel Butter Fig Pie The freshly baked caramel butter fig pie is piping hot with a perfect combination of the milky aroma of butter and the fruity aroma of figs, creating a rich and layered taste. Ruifang mulled wine 🍷 Of course, Christmas 🤶 must have a glass of mulled wine 🍷. The heated red wine has a mellow taste and releases the aroma of cinnamon. The feeling of being tipsy is perfect for the festive atmosphere...

Xintiandi is full of Christmas spirit, and this 8-year-old restaurant takes it to the next level! As soon as you enter, the blue-themed American-style decor will catch your eye. Their Christmas specials are all amazing. 🥢 Spinach and hot artichoke dip: Spinach, artichoke puree, and cheese blend perfectly, and the toast is more fragrant with every bite. 🥢 Christmas roast turkey: Rich side dishes, honey mustard sauce, cranberry sauce, and more give it a unique flavor. 🥢 Caramel butter fig pie: Worth the 15–20 minute wait, every bite is full of sweetness. 🥢 There's also rich and mellow Christmas pumpkin soup and a rich and varied sausage platter. This is the perfect place for a party. With the brilliant blue and gold Christmas tree, Irish coffee with whiskey, and a photo shoot with friends, the Christmas theme is especially photogenic. Remember, the specials are only available for dinner, so come and experience this unique Christmas romance!
