Christmas Traditions – What Were Yours Growing Up?

I grew up in the 60s and 70s. My dad would always go to Bastianelis which I think was at the top of digbeth near St Martins. So we always had grapes, lemons, olives and Panforte Di Sienna. plus bottles of Asti Spumante and a bottle of Chianti in its lovely basket. ...I try to keep this tradition. Unfortunately I have been unable to source Panforte locally since around 2020,
