Ring in the New Year at the Melting Pot

Looking for something a little different to do this New Year’s Eve?  How does a four course fondue dinner sound?  Oh but there’s more…2 glasses of champagne or sparkling cider, a bottle of wine, and other fun keepsakes, and a digital picture of you and your date in a melting pot frame!  Starting at $100 per couple, this sounds like a heck of deal to us.  Reservations book quickly, so be sure to get your name on the list.  912-349-5676.

A Delectable, Edible, Holiday Gift

If you’re looking for something  different from the same old, same old bottle of wine or box of cookies…. Try Papillote’s  Fig Confiture, their own luscious French version of fig preserves.. this deep, rich, slightly tart, sweet confection is marvelous spread over roast pork tenderloin,  or with goat cheese or Brie as an hors d’oeuvre….or simply over vanilla ice cream.  In all cases, a little goes a long way, so at $ 8.45 a jar, it’s worth every penny!  Papillote is located at 218 W. Broughton St.

Thanksgiving at EOS

We can vouch for the excellence of EOS’ Thanksgiving dinners!  Went there last year for Turkey Day dinner, and were amazed to find it the all-time best turkey dinner ever!  I had only been to restaurants a very few times in decades of gobbling gobblers, all upscale fine dining establishments which left us disappointed at best.  Personally, I’d always thought my own, Gran Marnier-herb-butter-basted bird the world’s best (no modesty from me regarding turkey!), and had had many fine dinners at others’ homes, but EOS won the Grand Prize!  Here’s their line up for Thanksgiving Dinner:

Butternut squash for the first course, followed by your choice of roasted turkey with cornbread stuffing and a cranberry cream sauce, or prime rib with a horseradish jus.  All courses will be accompanied by your choice of side, and don’t forget dessert, baked apples in a puff pastry with Chantilly sauce.  Yum!

EOS will be open for only one seating at 1pm.  The cost is $30 per person with an optional wine pairing for $15 dollars extra.  To make your reservation, call 912-238-2400.
