A Christmas Carol Dinner with Chef Joe

Wed, Dec 11, 6-8pm. The moment Scrooge's hand was on the lock, a strange voice called him by his name, and bade him enter. He obeyed. It was his own room. There was no doubt about that. But it had undergone a surprising transformation...Heaped up on the floor, to form a kind of throne, were turkeys, geese, game, poultry, brawn, great joints of meat, sucking-pigs, long wreaths of sausages, mince-pies, plum-puddings, barrels of oysters, red-hot chestnuts, cherry-cheeked apples, juicy oranges, luscious pears, immense twelfth-cakes, and seething bowls of punch, that made the chamber dim with their delicious steam.....Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol Don't be a Scrooge this holiday season — get festive and join Chef Joe for his annual celebratory feast featuring foods from Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol! We will start with oyster stew with root vegetables, salad of goose rillettes with chestnuts, roast suckling pig porchetta with a cranberry and orange sauce and finish with Stilton cheese with dried fruits and nuts with a glass of Tawny port.
