Enjoy half-price Dining this January

Check out our fantastic 50% off food offer at the Fox ExCeL

When December is over, January can feel like a long month. Payday is likely to be ages away, the weather is often cold and wet, and the fun appears to be over.

But it doesn’t have to be this way! Why not have Christmas in January? It’s actually becoming a trend as lots of people decide to host their Christmas parties in January, after the madness of December is over. It’s a great way to beat the post-holiday blues and you can often bag a great bargain too. Such as at the welcoming Fox ExCeL where you can bag yourself 50% off your food bill at lunch or dinner!

January conversation starters

Many moons ago, January was named the “International Brain Teaser Month” in order to promote cognitive fitness at the start of the year. In honour of this, we’re sharing some fun facts about January that you can use to impress your guests.

For example, our calendar didn’t always start with January. It wasn’t until Julius Caesar added the month of July and created the Julian calendar that January became the first month. It was named after Janus, the Roman god of doors, gates, and transitions. Before this, the Anglo Saxons used to call it “Wulfmonath” meaning “wolf month” named after the first full moon of the year, the Wolf moon, that usually appears in January.
