So many holiday traditions and memories revolve around food.
Whether it’s making a recipe that’s been in your family for generations,
getting your first introduction to cooking while baking Christmas cookies
as a child, or gathering around a table to share your culinary creations with
those you love, there’s no denying that food brings people together. As we
look forward to celebrating this holiday season, we asked some of the area’s
most respected chefs to share their family food traditions and a recipe from
their restaurant menu that they think would make a holiday meal special.
Happy holidays and bon appetit!
