Thanksgiving is fast approaching and we are thinking of ways to maximise enjoyment and time with the family while making sure, of course, that it is also delicious. Despite being transplants from another land we love Thanksgiving. It represents a time to sit and spend time with family and/or friends for no reason other than to be grateful for what we have…sometimes we need an excuse to do that. Over the years we have streamlined what we do so that rather than spending all day cooking and washing up (as some of us do that on a daily basis), we make a select few of our favourite things. This allows us to spend more time playing games, chilling out on the sofa, chatting and just hanging out together. Whether you take that approach or you go with the full-on experience we are happy to help in whatever way we can.
To that end here is our menu –

Sourdough – boule or tin loaf
