Getting it right for roast turkey lovers

Roast Lamb Leg is among the highlights of the Christmas Eve buffet dinner at Royale Chulan Seremban.

WHILE turkey is synonymous with Thanksgiving in the United States, here in Malaysia, the roasted bird in all its golden splendour is associated with Christmas.

Perhaps a legacy of the colonial era when roast turkey was the centrepiece of the festive table, the tradition of serving it for the celebratory meal is something Malaysians celebrating Christmas have adopted.
