Christmas in July Dinner

Following in the footsteps of our northern hemisphere cousins, Christmas in July is the Aussie excuse to guzzle mulled wine and give yorkshire puddings a try. Celebrate Christmas in the cold and make like the Brits at some of these Christmas in July venues, each serving up a festive feast worthy of a spot in your winter social calendar.
