Ho boy. I can’t believe an entire week has passed since we got back from our recent trip to Malaysia; Dubai has this ability to make time fly yet feel like a week was actually 2 weeks long. Long story shot, it has been manic. It’s also the time of year that festive turkey dinners and while I really wanted a slice of that pie (pun intended), I didn’t want to work for it. Enter the festive Turkey Takeaway dinner from Grand Hyatt Dubai.

It was super easy to order, the Google Form took all of 45 seconds to fill, and it took 20 minutes to transfer the food from the takeout boxes to my serve ware. For just 750 AED, I got to order a massive 8 kilo turkey, along with 6 sides of my choice, and 4 ridiculously delicious sauces.

Because I’m a completely extra person, and because M insists on always serving our guests way more food than they can consume, we also ordered the rib-eye, and that also came with the same set of sides and sauces. Altogether, this was easily enough food for 20 people. The portion sizes of the sides would have to be a lot smaller than the portion sizes of the meats though.

The box that the food was stackd up in was an instant indication of how high the hotel’s standards are, and also raised our expectations for what was contained within. suffice to say, the contents did not disappoint.

Here’s what came in the Grand Hyatt Turkey Takeaway box:

Verdict: I can’t recommend this highly enough, am so glad we did this, and will most certainly be doing this again next year!
