Where to Spend Christmas Eve in Singapore? An Evening Around the Hotpot at Suki Suki Hot Pot
Christmas Eve in Singapore has a different rhythm from Christmas Day. The 25th is a gazetted public holiday (2026 public holidays announced by MOM), but the 24th isn't, and this year it falls on a Thursday. For most people, that means work in the day and the celebration in the evening. So the best Christmas Eve celebration is one that's easy to get to after work, doesn't need hours of preparation, and still feels special when everyone finally sits down together.
That's where a hotpot dinner fits in. At Suki Suki Hot Pot, the MUIS halal-certified hotpot buffet at HomeTeamNS Khatib, the pot is already bubbling by the time your family arrives, and for Christmas 2026 the buffet has a few festive extras. This is what the evening can look like.
How Does a Christmas Eve at Suki Suki Hot Pot Begin?
Dinner service on a Thursday runs from 6pm, with the last order at 9.30pm, which leaves enough time to finish work, pick up the kids and get to Khatib. Families coming by train can take the North-South Line to Khatib MRT and then the HomeTeamNS Khatib shuttle or a short taxi ride; drivers can park in the basement carpark, entered from Yishun Avenue 2 via Yishun Walk. Christmas Eve is one of the busiest nights of the year, so book ahead. Tables are held for 15 minutes, and if you're running late, a quick WhatsApp to our concierge on +65 8303 1863 lets the team know.
Which Christmas Soups Should You Choose?
The first decision of the evening is the soup, and it's the one that matters most. Each pot takes up to two soup bases, and from 1 November 2026 to 7 January 2027 the menu has two Christmas additions at $2++ each. Khao Soi Soup is a Thai-inspired broth with rich, aromatic flavours, good for anyone who likes a bit of warmth. Truffle Mushroom Soup is gentler, earthy and comforting, with an indulgent truffle aroma. Ordering one of each gives the table a bold side and a mild side, so grandparents and the spice lovers can share the same pot. If someone at the table prefers a vegetarian base, the Mala, Oriental Healthy Tomato and Sukiyaki soups are all vegetarian.
What Makes the Meal Feel Like Christmas?
On most nights, a hotpot dinner is about the conversation as much as the food, and Christmas Eve is no different: everyone cooks at their own pace, passes the ladle and argues over the best dipping sauce. What makes it festive this year are the extras. Diners who choose the Premium Buffet at dinner get a complimentary Cheesy Baked Scallop each, on top of free-flow Premium items such as Wagyu beef, tiger prawns, clams, sliced seabass and salmon. Everyone, on either buffet, can finish with the Tri-Colour Thai Cassava Cake, a yellow, red and green Thai-inspired dessert at the buffet line, while stocks last.
Because the whole buffet is halal-certified by MUIS, a mixed family or group of friends can celebrate together without anyone having to check the menu. You can confirm our certification on the MUIS list of certified eating establishments.
How Much Is a Christmas Eve Dinner at Suki Suki Hot Pot?
The buffet is priced per person for an 80-minute seating, with free-flow drinks included. On a regular Thursday evening, the Regular Buffet is $28.90++ per adult and $19.90++ per child aged 5 to 12, and the Premium Buffet is $39.80++ per adult and $28.80++ per child. An extra $3.00++ per diner applies on special occasions and their eves, so on Christmas Eve expect $31.90++ per adult for the Regular Buffet and $42.80++ for Premium. Add the $2++ festive soups if you'd like them. All prices are subject to service charge and prevailing government taxes, and the Christmas Special is for dine-in only.
Is There Room for a Bigger Group?
If your Christmas Eve is a bigger affair, with cousins, colleagues or a whole extended family, talk to the team before the date. Suki Suki Hot Pot can host large groups, and you can enquire about booking the restaurant exclusively through the WhatsApp concierge. High chairs are available for babies, and the restaurant is wheelchair friendly, so the whole family can come along.
