Christmas is all about holidays, family, friends, cute decorations, Santa Claus and most importantly, food. In India, every festival starts and ends with good food. A good start to the festive season has to start with a festive spread; a spread that is delectable, memorable, and absolutely wholesome. As one wakes up to the lazily, lightly cool, and late-morning city breeze, nothing beats the sound of clinking glasses and a cosy Christmas brunch that tastes like pure joy.
