Every year Thanksgiving is getting better because more restaurants are serving turkey.
A few years ago it was really scarce that I had to keep an eye on the calender so I wouldn't miss it.
At Blue Butcher, they are now serving a whole turkey which is enough for 6-8 people priced at $1860 or half a turkey for $930 with homemade stuffing, mash, candied bacon, Brussel sprouts and trimmings.
Dessert is finished with a scrumptious pumpkin pie.
(All turkeys must be ordered 72 hours in advance.)
That night we had Turkey and some of their other dishes so lets start with the Turkey first.

Green Goddess:

Started off with this drink which was a concoction of cucumber, dill, Vanilla gum and citrus.
The taste of dill in the drink was surprisingly good and it was such a healthy drink.

Roast Turkey:
Now to the star of the show, the turkey was sliced surrounded by the vegetables, stuffing, mash etc.
I tried both the breast and leg which were both incredibly soft and supple but I have to admit the leg was tastier.

Pumpkin pie:
The Thanksgiving meal ended with my favourite pumpkin pie which was not too sweet with a strong cinnamon flavour to it.

Kurobua BBQ pulled pork sliders:
These sliders were packed with pickled chili and aged cheddar which had a tangy smokey taste.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Veal sweetbread nuggets:
The nuggets came with black truffle emulsion and lemon.
You don't often see sweetbread on the menu so this was a must order item because it is delicious.
They are similar to chicken liver which has a soft mushy yet velvety texture and with the crispy coating they taste a bit like fried pieces of chicken.

Jarred foie gras and chicken liver:

The pate was lovely and velvety balanced by the sharpness of the onions.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Macaroni and cheese with egg:
This was amazing because the cheese was rich and the addition of the half cooked egg made the macaroni tastier.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
Pig belly and cheek:
The pig belly was on a bed of lentils and Granny Smith apple slaw.
It was a nice mix of pork, starchy lentils and tangy apple pieces.
