Slow-Roasted Turkey with Stuffing, Mashed Potatoes, Green Beans and Cranberry Sauce – $6.00

Served with stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, and cranberry sauce, this is classic American holiday food and tastes great when combined into a single bite. The cranberry was especially prominent without being overpowering.

*NEW* Blackened Catfish with Hoppin’ John and Comeback Sauce – $6.50

This was almost like a play on white beans and rice.

The beans are smaller and didn’t taste like they were cooked thoroughly as the they were slightly tough.

The Cajun flavors are there and the catfish was cooked just fine, while the comeback sauce is a Cajun-spiced sauce with a lot of butter, or at least it tastes like it uses a lot. It’s a decent, hearty dish, and very flavorful.

Chocolate Crinkle Cookie – $3.00

This chocolate crinkle cookie is great. It’s a chocolate cookie that is very well made.

It is soft in the center and the Dove chocolate adds just enough richness. It’s soft and doughy, with a crunch on the edges, and covered in confectioners sugar.

The powdered sugar gets everywhere, but it’s worth it. We suggest not passing on it, especially for the price.

3 Daughters Brewing Eggnog White Porter, St. Petersburg, FL (6.0% ABV) – $5.50 for 6 oz., $9.50 for 12 oz.

From correspondence with 3 Daughters Brewing: “A beer brewed for sunny Florida winters, the Egg Nog Porter brings an easy-drinking vibe to the seasonal treat. Full of smooth, rich chocolate and coffee flavors, this white porter maintains a lighter body while still blanketing the taste buds in holiday cheer.”

Playalinda Brewing Co. Peppermint Chocolate Stout, Titusville, FL  – $5.50 for 6 oz., $9.50 for 12 oz.

This Peppermint Chocolate Stout is very rich, and you can definitely taste the chocolate. The peppermint taste gets a little lost, but it’s very aromatic.
