Christmas gatherings are an excellent excuse to bring everyone around a table, preferably one filled with good food. This November and December 2026, Italian restaurant La Balena in Pondok Indah, Jakarta, introduces its Holiday Specials, featuring a spread of Italian Christmas dishes alongside Holiday in Venice, a Christmas hamper collection inspired by the Italian city’s architecture and traditions.
An Italian Christmas Feast
Christmas is as good an excuse as any for an Italian feast, with plenty of dishes to share and good company around the table. La Balena’s Holiday Specials bring grilled steaks, comforting pasta and freshly prepared pizzas to their festive menu available throughough November and December. Leave room for dessert, La Balena’s signature tiramisu is a must-have.
Pick a few favourites, order for the table and let everyone help themselves. After all, sharing is half the pleasure of an Italian dining experience. Round up your favourite people and book your festive table at La Balena early– especially if you’re bringing the whole family!
A Little Venice Under the Christmas Tree
Still searching for the right Christmas gift? La Balena’s Holiday in Venice hamper brings an Italian touch to year-end gifting. This artisanal presentation features illustrated keepsake boxes depicting the city’s canals, architecture and Christmas decorations.
The first of the two, the Carnivale Hamper, priced at IDR 750,000, keeps things sweet with four jars of cookies: Le Nastar, Baci di Dama, Rosemary and Cacao. Bringing together familiar Indonesian festive favourites and Italian biscuits, it’s an easy choice for those looking to tick a few names off their Christmas gift list.
For a larger present, the Luna Hamper, priced at IDR 1,570,000, includes a Classic Aglio Olio Set featuring 250ml olive oil, 500g fusilli pasta, garlic confit, chilli powder, parsley powder and oregano powder. Four jars of cookies complete the collection with Le Nastar, Baci di Dama, Rosemary and Kaastengels.
Both hampers are available for the 2026 festive season, with orders required at least two days before delivery. Prices exclude 10% government tax and delivery fees. Delivery is available throughout Jabodetabek, with charges calculated according to the recipient’s address.
