An unofficial and beloved Jewish tradition, nothing beats a hot plate of delicious Chinese food on Christmas Day (especially when you don’t have to clean all those dishes!). Plenty of Edmonton Chinese restaurants will be open on the holiday; just be sure to check beforehand. We confirmed with All Happy Family Restaurant on 106th Avenue that they will be open from 11 am until late (2 am) on Christmas Day.
