Thanksgiving is my favourite American holiday. A low-key day to spend with family and friends, enjoying good food and company while kicking off the Christmas season? What’s not to love?

Tom and I will be celebrating Thanksgiving in L.A. this year, which means that sadly, we’ll miss Executive Chef Michael Howell’s amazing Thanksgiving dinner November 22 at the Green Turtle Club.
On the menu this year is the chef’s 48-hour brined and deliciously deep-fried turkey, along with all the usual Thanksgiving trimmings, with pumpkin pie with maple cream or pumpkin crème brulée for dessert. Yum!
Though reservations aren’t required, they’re a good idea. Contact the Green Turtle Club at (242) 365-4271 or toll-free at 1-800-370-4468 or 1-866-528-0539.
