During the gala evening, guests will be offered two times: from 17:00 to 19:30 And from 20:00 to 01:00. The atmosphere will be created by Zhanna Blagoveshchenskaya with the “One woman show” program, and the piano will sound in the pauses.

The cost is more than democratic - €75 And €37,50 for children up to 12 years old. By the way, if the little guests do not want a special holiday menu, they can choose dishes to their taste from the children's offer.

The festive set consists of four courses: appetizers, hot dishes, a plate of French cheeses and a dessert. The main thing is a special Christmas accent, which is unmistakably recognizable in every dish - spices, garnish, classic flavor combinations.

By the way, during the evening, visitors will be offered drinks that are included in the price of the menu. A glass of white or red wine with each course, such as New Zealand Mud House Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2013, Austrian Jurtschitsch Gruner Veltliner Steinhaus Kamptal, Chilean Carmen Reserva Merlot or French Delas Cotes du Rhone Rouge, and dessert is expected to be accompanied by port wine.

pumpkin cream soup

With forest mushrooms and pumpkin seeds.

A light, warming soup that perfectly balances sweet and sour notes. The pumpkin itself is responsible for the sweetness, and white balsamic is responsible for the sourness.

The dish is moderately spicy and fragrant - juniper berries go well with forest mushrooms. Mushroom mushrooms for soup are first boiled, just before serving they are lightly fried, added to the soup and sprinkled with pumpkin seeds.

Goat cheese salad

Salad with goat cheese, glazed pear and pecans.

A combination that has already become a classic - glazed pear looks wonderful in a duet with goat cheese from a local producer. Pear slices are glazed in a mixture of white wine and caramelized sugar. And it's delicious. Neither subtract nor add!

For dressing, lemon and lime juice is mixed with olive oil, seasoned with salt and pepper and complemented with a green salad mix.

Venison roast beef

Venison roast beef with cranberry chutney.

For roast beef, deer chop is used, which is first cooked at a “slow” temperature, after which it is lightly fried and brought to readiness at higher degrees.

By the way, the restaurant chefs make their own cranberry chutney. In season, the berry is harvested and then, as necessary, used in cooking: chutneys, sauces or jams are prepared.

Almost all hot dishes are accompanied by a side dish - stewed vegetables and amandine potatoes - a special kind of root vegetable boiled in a "uniform" and then lightly fried in oil.

Lamb ham in salt “en croute”

With red cabbage stewed in apple juice.

Whole ham is baked in a special, branded dough: flour, protein, salt, rosemary and olive oil. Moreover, the dough itself is inedible, its function is to nourish and salt the main course, therefore, when the meat is ready, it is sent to the client’s plate without dough.

A ham weighing 1.5 kg is able to feed a company of 5-6 people. According to the chef of the restaurant, Kristaps Jokmanis, this dish claims to become a family dish, around which the family gathers at the table and spends the holidays together.

As a side dish for the leg of lamb, you will be served stewed red cabbage in apple juice, which has been simmered with the addition of cinnamon, allspice and bay leaf, which gives a great flavor to the dish and is a bit reminiscent of traditional German cuisine. Such a side dish, by the way, is ideal for both venison and game.

Wellington beef fillet.

With mushrooms, Parma ham and red-wine sauce with blackcurrant.

For this dish, beef fillet of the highest quality is taken. Despite the fact that the technology is unchanged, the dish still has author's variations.

Spanish ham, fried and finely chopped portobello mushrooms are laid out on puff pastry, and then the beef itself. After that, the filling is wrapped in dough and baked.

The dish is served with blackcurrant sauce and "pearls" of balsamic sauce - hello from molecular cuisine. All together - a great combination and a win-win option for a meat dish!

The result is nothing superfluous, a preserved balance of flavors and perfectly cooked meat.

duck breast

With potato gratin and Christmas apple chutney.

First of all, the meat is easy to bake - the main thing is not to overcook the dish, otherwise it will turn out dry.

Apple chutney (not for nothing that the word “Christmas” is present in the name) is prepared with the addition of cloves, star anise, cinnamon, honey, white wine and goes well with duck breast!

Potato gratin is one way to prepare potatoes, essentially oven baked potatoes in cream.

Assorted French cheeses

With pear-ginger jam and crispy crackers.

Traditionally, cheese board is served after the main course and before dessert. Cheeses are presented in a variety of ways: from soft and semi-soft to hard and semi-hard.

The cheese is served with crackers, berries and pear-ginger jam, which is prepared on the spot at the restaurant.

Chocolate brownie

The secret recipe, which, as they joke, the chef stole from one chef, and he stole from another chef, in a word, the details of the dish are a mystery!

We know for sure that walnuts are added to the brownie and it is served with vanilla, mint and strawberry sauces. In addition, all traditional technologies are observed in this recipe.

By the way, the chocolate used to make brownies contains at least 80% cocoa - tasty and healthy. And a glass of port for sweets is the perfect point in a festive and chic dinner!

In many countries, Christmas menus are prepared according to established traditions and rituals. Somewhere the Christmas table is unthinkable without a goose with apples, somewhere else a month before they start baking spicy muffins and cookies, and in some countries a mandatory attribute of a festive meal is stuffed carp.

We offer you two options for the Christmas menu (traditional and European) with step-by-step recipes and photographs of cooking, food lists and, of course, work plans.

Traditional menu for Christmas

Snack:
Hot:
Dessert:
Drink:

Action plan:

If you have a free day in the festive pre-New Year bustle, start preparing Christmas cookies. The recipe came from Europe, but in a matter of years it became popular with us. The secret is that you can make mini galleries up to a month before the holiday, and who doesn’t love such a sudden time-management bonus? Ready-made cookies can be used for New Year's surprises for guests. In any case, do not forget to save some before Christmas - spiced cottage cheese muffin will be the best dessert on the festive Christmas table.

One week before the holiday

Let's cook the cabbage. Now you can easily buy ready-made, but, honestly, it cannot be compared with fermented on its own. In addition, in the case of self-salting, you can adjust the amount of salt, sugar, if desired, add cranberries or spices.

Two days before the holiday

Let's marinate the goose. If you bought a gutted carcass, it is better to start processing it even earlier, so that by the time of pickling, the gutted goose rests in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.

The day before the holiday

We clean the potatoes. Boil part for salad, put part in cold water and put in the refrigerator. We fry the mushrooms, put them in a jar, close the lid tightly so that no one encroaches, and also put it in the cold for the time being, for the time being. On the same day, one more important thing needs to be done - stuffing the goose.

We send the goose to the oven. For reference - a carcass weighing 4 kg is baked for three hours. We bake apples and potatoes for a side dish.

We turn on the fantasy and decorate the goose with baked apples, potatoes, tomatoes and pomegranate seeds. This is the very rare case when it is not forbidden to overdo it a little. A festive goose is still a goose!

On a festive night

When the guests and family pay tribute to the goose with apples and drink tea with Christmas cookies, it's time for an encore. The process of preparing the Bicherin puff coffee dessert will take only 10 minutes, but the effect is simply stunning. Bitter coffee with chocolate will not put an end to the evening, but a bright exclamation point!

European menu for Christmas

First course:
Hot:
Dessert:
Drink

Action plan:

One month before the holiday

As we have already written above, the Christmas adit is the most win-win option for a festive dessert. In the classic European Christmas menu, you can often find this particular type of adit - a large fragrant muffin with dried fruits and nuts. We recommend making two adits at once, so that there is something to give to friends who suddenly appeared during the New Year holidays. The adit must “ripen” correctly, for this we carefully wrap it in baking paper, and then in foil.

Two or three weeks before the holiday

We start to conjure with spices. Let's prepare a set of spices for mulled wine so that you don't waste time on this festive night. A little secret - if you wrap sets of spices in beautiful bags or put them in smart boxes, then we will have an excellent set of New Year's gifts for colleagues and friends.

The day before the holiday

We cook soup. Why suddenly soup, you ask? The fact is that in many European countries it is customary to serve soup as an appetizer on the festive Christmas table. A light vegetable or mushroom puree soup is best suited for this purpose. It helps to smoothly prepare the body for leaving the pre-Christmas fast, stimulates appetite and creates a homely atmosphere. On the same day, we stuff and bake carp. Unfortunately, this cannot be done in advance, because the fish must be as fresh as possible.

On a festive night

After soup, carp and adit tea, our guests will be asked to take a walk - we can guarantee this! So, rather, we put on the most beautiful hats, scarves and mittens, take a sled, children, dogs, a neighbor, Aunt Masha, and go outside! After a walk in a cheerful crowd, we return home and set to cook mulled wine. We do not close the door tightly - soon the whole house will come running for the festive aroma of cinnamon and cloves!
