Thanksgiving en Blanc

Le Diner en Blanc (DOB) this year was on the very same day as the annual American Society of South Africa Thanksgiving Dinner as well as the United States Marine Corps Ball in Johannesburg. We were already committed to DOB by the time the other invitations came out and were sorry to have to miss these two special American November celebrations in Johannesburg. So in order to pay homage to all things American, we planned a sort of "Thanksgiving en Blanc" menu for this year's DOB.

Puffed Pastry Cornucopias stuffed with Brie, Marula Jam, Grapes & Macadamia Nuts
New England Clam & White Corn Chowder
  
Asian-inspired Rice Noodle Salad with Turkey
And since DOB Johannesburg was on the same night as DOB Singapore, we gave our turkey course a little Asian spin in honor of our new adopted country. Of course we only used "blanc meat" turkey!

macarons are French!
