Arnaud's New Orleans

"Arnaud’s is exceptionally festive during the holiday season, making the Thanksgiving table d’hôte a tradition for many. The $65 three course menu includes choices like shrimp Arnaud, roasted butternut squash soup, sauteed red fish with greens and of course, roast turkey with cornbread or oyster dressing. The chef’s shopping list includes 42 turkeys, 90 pounds of snap beans, 80 pounds of yams and 50 pounds of marshmallows to candy them." - Beth D'Addono
