Christmas is coming around fast, and before we know it, streets will be filled with twinkling lights, houses with Christmas trees, and the radio will be playing all our favourite festive songs. By now, most people have probably already had their first mince pie, sausage roll, or Santa-shaped chocolate – shops have had them on the shelves since October – and are slowly starting to feel the Christmas spirit.

As we draw further into the Christmas season, people will be starting to think about Christmas parties and get-togethers. With the pressure on from their colleagues or friends to find the best restaurant, they’ll begin their search for a Christmas feast to remember.
