Christmas comes around so quickly every year, and booking a Christmas party can feel like a big task – after all, you have plenty of people to keep happy, and want to make sure that this year’s is better than the last. If you're tired of dry turkey and Christmas crackers that don’t pop, consider something a bit different this year, such as Roti Chai, located in Marble Arch in the heart of West London.
For those looking to keep it central, and easily accessible, Bond Street and Marble Arch stations are very close by, and the kitchens are open throughout the week, just closed on Christmas Eve and the big day itself. There are two parts to Roti Chai, including the ground floor street kitchen that is open all day for dine-in guests, and the more formal dining room downstairs, which is available for dinner from Tuesday through to Sunday.
Around Christmastime, you'll find seasonal specials popping up on the menu, but for now, you can take a look at the restaurant's dining room party menus to get a good idea of what to expect. Starters include kerala fried cauliflower with panko crumbs and a beetroot sesame drizzle, and Tibetan style steamed chicken dumplings. Butter chicken, baigan mirch ka salan aubergine steak and traditional koliwada fish kari all feature on the main menu. For dessert, there are gulab jamun mini donuts with toasted almonds, sugar and rose syrup, and a Malai cheesecake with seasonal berry compote.
When it comes to hosting your Christmas party, at Roti Chai it's all about exclusive hire. The main dining room can host up to 65 guests for a seated dinner, with space for up to 90 if you're looking to host a standing drinks reception. Set up the space to your precise configuration for a personalised experience that works for a whole host of events.
