Thanksgiving at Esterel: One more Reason to be Thankful

If there is one-thing foodies are thankful for, it’s French food. This year Esterel, the restaurant at Sofitel Los Angeles in BeverlyHills, gives patrons a chance to experience gratitude, Parisian style (and where The Thomas Gals will be dining this Turkey Day!). This Thanksgiving, Esterel has created a three-course pre-fixed menu that provides a tasty twist on traditional fare. Executive Chef Marius Blin’s autumnal inspired offerings are the perfect blend of rich and round flavors shaped by savory and seasonal elegance.

This one of a kind holiday dining experience provides guests all the hospitality of home with none of the extra work. While for guests, relaxing should be easy, choosing between the many delectable choices might be difficult. In addition to warm apple cider and a special selection of Thanksgiving bread, guests will begin their meal with a choice of three appetizers, which include Roasted Butternut Squash Soup, a Fennel Goat Cheese Salad with or Pecan Crusted Sea Scallops for starters.

Esterel is also offering a variety of main courses, allowing guest to choose just how traditional they want their Thanksgiving to be. For patrons who are craving a delicious interpretation of the usual staples, Esterel will feature Free Range Turkey with brioche sage stuffing, cranberry relish, and buttermilk red bliss mashed potato. For those looking for a different taste this year, they can select either the Crispy Skin Branzino served with braised baby carrots, parsnip, heirloom spinach, local caviar champagne beurre blanc or Porcini Agnolotti complimented by carrot harissa puree, local beans, welted wild arugula and Black garlic.

And no Thanksgiving feast would be complete without a sweet and sugar finishing note. Esterel guests will have a choice between Pumpkin Chai Cheesecake Brulee, Hibiscus “Soup” or Valrhona Chocolate Cremeux.

Esterel’s three courses prefix menu will be offer from $65 and for children between 6 -12 years old $40 from 12:00pm – 4.30pm. Thanksgiving specials served after 4:30pm along with regular dinner menu. Please visit www.esterelrestaurant.com
