The Balalaika Sandton is transforming into a festive destination, offering two extraordinary Christmas experiences this Christmas Day. Each experience is created to capture the magic, warmth, and indulgence of the holiday season. Whether you’re dreaming of an elegant Christmas lunch or seeking a family-friendly celebration, the Balalaika invites you to choose your perfect festive celebration.
Holiday Cheer at The Bull Run
Christmas unfolds with refined warmth and world-class flavours at The Bull Run. Enjoy a beautifully curated Harvest Table, offering artisanal breads, whipped feta, hummus, baba ghanoush, charcuterie, seasonal fruits, and salads. It's a generous festive welcome that sets the tone for the courses to follow. The plated menu offers a choice of sophisticated starters. These include Smoked Duck Salad, Lobster and Prawn Bisque, and the festive Christmas Caprese. Each starter presents a harmony of texture and flavour.
For mains, indulge in a Whole Prime Rib Roast Slice, Lemon Herb Line Fish, Lemon Thyme Chicken Supreme, or the richly comforting Orzo Puttanesca.
The desserts are also as spectacular, with the Chocolate and Amarula Mousse, Bull Run Rainbow Cheesecake, and decadent Apple Crumble offering a sweet end to an unforgettable meal.
Alternatively, you can choose the A La Carte Classics with an add-on of the Harvest Table experience.
A Family-Oriented Feast at The Conservatory
The Conservatory will host the spectacular Grinchmas Feast. This is a buffet-style Christmas Carvery, bursting with festive colour, family fun, and abundant flavour.
Enjoy everything from artisanal breads, tomato soup, and cured seafood platters, to a selection of salads including roasted pumpkin and grains, prawn and avocado salad, and roasted beetroot with feta.
The hot selection features Butter Chicken, South African Lamb Stew, Stuffed Whole Line Fish, vegetables, jasmine rice, and more. The Carvery celebrates Christmas tradition with Honey-Glazed Gammon and Roast Turkey with Cranberry Jus.
Last but certainly not least, dessert becomes a wonderland of gingerbread houses, peppermint crisp cake, trifle, pavlova snowmen, choux wreaths, and Christmas pudding.
