Renowned for preparing fresh, high-quality seafood and dishes with a local twist, the Victoria House Resort culinary team has prepared a special menu for Thanksgiving, starting with two options for the first course: a pear salad with fennel, walnuts, raisins, and blue cheese, or an elevated carrot ginger soup with crispy pork belly, baked radish, and caramelized apple. For the second course, guests will have the option of house-made pasta stuffed with ricotta-honey and sage and served with an aromatic lamb ragu, fresh snapper fillet prepared with spices and a tangy cucumber yogurt sauce, or roasted turkey breast served with green bean casserole and savory sweet potato tots with goat cheese. Sticky toffee pudding served with vanilla gelato and indulgent bourbon caramel sauce will round out the holiday meal.
