Time for a New Thanksgiving Tradition

Thanksgiving is more than a harvest festival.  It is the beginning of the fall-winter holiday season!  Each year we pay homage to the first Thanksgiving—a feast shared by the Pilgrims who settled the Plymouth Colony and the Wampanoag natives.  Our Buckhorn Inn tradi has been to serve a Thanksgiving buffet with everyone’s favorite dishes.  To comply with the current knowledge about Covid-19 prevention, we will not be offering a buffet this year.  But the feast will be bountiful nonetheless!  Chef Frank has developed a fantastic menu for a plated dinner which will be served at 5:00 p.m.  If you are joining us for our three-day Thanksgiving package, please know that families and groups travelling together will be seated with their own groups for the holiday meal.  All couples will have their own tables.  We will be removing furniture from the dining room and library to ensure adequate social distancing between tables.  So that you may start looking forward to it, here is the menu:

Course #1 

Root Vegetable Soup with Crema and Dried Apples

Course #2
