In the 'bad old days' in Australia, Xmas day was traditionally a huge
feast of roast meats, baked veggies, ham and puddings. Which is fine
if you're in the northern hemisphere but Xmas day in Aus is usually
very hot, being summer time and all.

These days there are no rules for Xmas lunch/dinner and if anything
the above traditional fare is the exception and not the rule. Seafood
and salads are very popular.
