Thanksgiving at the Hotel Plaza Athenee New York (and Hot Rates Post-Fete)

Let someone else cook up the turkey this year. The chefs at Arabelle Restaurant at the Hotel Plaza Athenee are preparing a mouthwatering feast you won't want to miss. Here's a peek at the menu: lobster bisque or pumpkin and mascarpone ravioli to start, followed by sea bass, smoked bacon wrapped filet mignon, or traditional turkey, of course, served with all the fixins: chestnut and sage stuffing, sweet potato puree, cranberry relish, bacon braised brussel sprouts and garlic string beans. Desserts are equally as delicious. Think maple pumpkin tart, chocolate cheesecake, or cassis mousse.

After all the feasting and merrymaking, you may want to sleep off your food coma in a luxurious room in Manhattan's Upper East Side. The Hotel Plaza Athenee is offering "Hot Dates" from Saturday, November 27- December 1, 2010 with rates starting at $595 per night plus taxes for a Classic King Room. If you stay 3 or more nights during this period, you'll be eligible to receive a further reduction.
