THE CHRISTMAS EDITION! WITH SPECIAL GUEST APPEARANCES BY SANTA AND OMICRON!

I have to say, Santa, who has been sporting this look for about a decade now, is truly way ahead of his time in his mask-wearing "above the nose" fashion statement! Additionally, it is optimal for enjoying our festive meal, which started out with...

hibiscus, ginger, and cinnamon tea spiced with ancho chili lime juice, rum, and tequila,

squid ink risotto with grilled squid and garlic-lemon aioli, cauliflower-onion-parmesan gluten free pizza crust, with black beans, carmelized cabbage, cheese, and roasted romanesco with cashew nut salsa macha, with roasted fresh poblanos and dry ancho chiles.

sous vite pork chops finished with blood orange glaze

passion fruit reformed reforma torta

Some heavy on the mental acuity games were enjoyed by all, programmed thanks to Uncle Rix!
