Liverpool’s highest restaurant, Panoramic 34, is hosting a luxurious Christmas Day dinner for the first time.
With very limited availability left, families and friends alike can dine 34 floors above the city on the most magical day of the year.
With a festive tasting menu available for both adults and children, Panoramic 34 is the ultimate way to celebrate.
The venue has never opened on Christmas Day before, but this year, Panoramic will service its showstopper eight course tasting menu that’s £195 per person including a glass of champagne, or £250 per person with a full wine pairing with each dish. The restaurant’s children’s festive menu is £60 per person.
The indulgent tasting menu will commence with a champagne arrival as well as a basket of artisan breads and festive canapés that set the tone for the day ahead.
Panoramic will then take guests on a culinary journey through Italy and England with palate cleansers in between and an exquisite dessert finale, all designed to ensure every guest is fully relaxed and can soak up each moment.
The eight courses include a delicate broth with handmade pasta parcels filled with lobster, Amalfi lemon zest and a light lobster bisque. Seared scallop wrapped in lardons with saffron cream and mirepoix vegetables are also on the menu, and roasted turkey stuffed with chestnut and sage, served with pancetta sprouts, pigs in blankets, winter vegetables and a red wine jus.
No Christmas Day dinner is complete without a cheese board but Panoramic’s is one above the rest. A celebratory board of cranberry cheese, parmiggiano 36 month Vacche Rosse, struggle red Leicester, blue stilton, figs, honey, grapes, crackers and chutney will light up the dinner table.
Guests will finish on a stunning pistachio tiramisu, encased in a chocolate sphere and served with hot caramel sauce, followed by homemade red fruit and ruby chocolate panettone served with tea and coffee.
Availability is limited. Please call Panoramic 34 on 0151 236 5534.
