We celebrated Thanksgiving in a wonderful beautiful and delicious place yesterday.
Granite Links Ballroom it was absolutely amazing and it was a buffet so we could eat everything, but drinks weren't included. It all started with butternut squash soup, clam chowder, and salad.
The salad was a baby spinach with apples, cranberries. Maybe finely chopped walnuts and a homemade dressing, which I can't describe. The soup was so rich and tasty I drank it right out of the cup, I went back for seconds. The bread was homemade fortachi bread and corn bread. Both were very good served with a small ball of butter, you served yourself and it was such a beautiful display of appetizers.
Next was tea and coffees a few different blends. Almond milk, cream and regular milk, for the tea and coffee.
The dessert table was attached,
and a little overwhelming for me not a big sugar person.
Cookies with sprinkles, cake every flavor, tarimasu, pumpkin-cake , and Chocolate Cake with chocolate chips on top. Cannolis pumpkin filled, cream filled and chocolate covered. A beautiful room with windows as far as the eye could see. Right in the middle of the room was a crystal chandelier so sparkling it looked as though it should be in a castle.
Right in the middle of the floor was the different side dishes. Roasted String beans drizzled with thinnest almonds I've ever seen, tortalini with roast summer squash and apargus. Lobster stuffed sole roasted just perfect with a creamy sauce over it. A brioche stuffing with cranberries and fresh herbs and apples.
Yukon mashed potatoes with drawn butter and chives, so creamy and whipped to perfection. Roasted Fingerlings potatoes with roasted garlic and rosemary with olive oil drizzle.
Now on to the craving table dark meat with legs perfectly roasted skin and not a bit dry. The craver was precise with just as you wanted it white meat thick or thinly sliced meat right as you got there nothing already sliced. Such a great meal.
$57 per adult and children $27 I think not sure. We were all adult
I would definitely go to another event at the Ball Room it is breathtaking. Thank you Wendy and Joe Whalen
