Old Homestead Steakhouse Offers Extravagant Cranberry Sauce for Thanksgiving
A Famed NYC Restaurant’s Luxurious Take on a Classic Holiday Side
A famed New York City restaurant, the oldest steakhouse in the country, is once again featuring an extravagant Thanksgiving dish. Well, it’s not even a full dish. Or even a full side, really. But it will still set you back about as much as a three-course dinner at a Michelin-starred joint.
The "Dollop" of Cranberry Sauce
The iconic Old Homestead Steakhouse in the Meatpacking District is offering a "dollop" of cranberry sauce as part of its Thanksgiving offerings.
The Cost: A Cool $195
The cost for that small serving? A cool $195. In a post on Instagram, the restaurant said the family cranberry sauce recipe dates back to the 1900s, and that this year they are "elevating grandma’s recipe just a smidge."
What Makes it So Pricey?
So what makes it so pricey? The ingredients include white truffle shavings that cost $1,500 per pound, as well as edible 24k gold flakes and Manuka Honey from New Zealand that costs $100 a pound. Oh, and Taylor Fladgate Scion Vintage Port, which costs $4,400 a bottle.
A Tradition of Luxury
It’s not the first time the eatery has offered ultra-high-end Thanksgiving meals. In 2019, it served a $180,000 holiday meal. Hopefully it came with all the fixins’.
More Budget-Friendly Options
Old Homestead’s Thanksgiving menu also offers more budget-friendly options, like an $85 roasted turkey dinner with all the classic sides that aren’t made with gold or white truffles.
Conclusion
Old Homestead Steakhouse is once again pushing the boundaries of luxury and extravagance with its unique take on a classic Thanksgiving side dish. Whether you’re looking to splurge or stick to a more traditional menu, there’s something for everyone at this iconic NYC restaurant.
