Then comes the food—because what’s Christmas without a feast? Mamabella has introduced a fully customised Christmas menu crafted by the iconic Mama Terrasa and Chef Alessandro. Expect a thoughtful blend of signature Italian favourites and festive seasonal dishes, bringing you the best of both culinary worlds.
