Delicious holiday celebration ideas bring family and friends together in jovial delight.
’Tis the season for holiday cheer and gatherings galore! This year, perhaps a few updated takes on those age-old traditions are due. As festive table runners and centerpieces are placed, consider the awe you’ll inspire by presenting a beautifully prepared goose or duck in place of the tried-and-true stuffed turkey. Heirloom beans and creative sides give new life to accompaniments enjoyed by all. Try pumpkin a different way and show off some skills in the baking department with homemade doughnuts.
Take a stroll into Nothing to It! Culinary Center in Reno as it hosts its annual gingerbread-house-decorating classes for children and, new this year, an imaginative ladies’ night out event. Catch up with chef Mark Estee and his culinary team as they prepare for the special Feast of the Seven Fishes at Cucina Lupo in Carson City and Liberty Food & Wine Exchange in Reno, featuring the freshest catches from Sparks’ Sierra Gold Seafood. This traditional Italian-American celebration is sure to be an evening to remember.
