Where to Go For Thanksgiving Dinner in Paris
For many Americans, Thanksgiving is the most important holiday of the year. It’s a time to be thankful and to bring together your closest family and friends over a hearty meal. However, expats living in Paris can’t always make it back home. Nor is it easy to prepare a Turkey Day feast considering that turkeys need to be ordered in advance and other ingredients can be hard, and expensive, to come by.
Breakfast in America
This classic American-style diner is a solid choice for a traditional Thanksgiving dinner in Paris. Breakfast in America is offering two seatings (6pm and 8:0pm) on November 27 and 28 in the Latin Quarter, Marais and Champs-Élysées. The menu is 54€ per person and includes an apératif, starter, main course of turkey and trimmings, and choice of dessert. Advanced reservations for Thanksgiving at Breakfast in America are required.
Chez Carrie
The newly opened restaurant from acclaimed American chef Carrie Solomon hosts a Thanksgiving menu where vegetables shine. Tradition mingles with a vegetable forward menu, including confit turkey, buckwheat nachos, squash with hazelnuts and caramelized onions, a creamy wild mushroom and chestnut soup, and smoked butter mashed potatoes. Sweet treats to round things off include pumpkin pie inspired ice cream with dates and pine nuts or a milk and honey pecan tart.

CHOcho
Franco-American chef Thomas Chisolm goes back to his American roots and serves a meal to remember on the 27th and 28th at Chocho in the 10th arrondissement.
