For Thanksgiving Mr. Choppy doesn't mess with a big bird and the traditional things. He gets together with friends and family. Together they create a tasting menu with paired wine. Here is a little of what we did last year. For this year, you'll just have to wait as it is still early!

The crab towner was taken from
On the Line
, a great book about Le Bernardin and its crew. First time I ever tried to make a tower and it came out great. I added the roasted beats for some color and add an earthy note. The pork, polenta and dandelion greens is my take on a recipe from Top Chef Voltaggio. There were three other courses but that is another post. And then there was the wine, although I think a bottle is missing in there somewhere.
