As the holiday looms and we wonder how on earth we can do it all — set the perfect table, be the perfect host or guest, entertain out-of-town family members, and cook — it’s not too late to get help from one or all of Rye’s culinary staples to pull off the occasion. You’ll really need help if you’re celebrating Hanukkah, which begins the night before Thanksgiving.
Gary and Liz Stone’s family business, Cornerstone Caterers, is all about farm to table. In fact, their motto is “no farm, no food.” That said, rest assured any dish they make is fresh, seasonal, organic, and scrumptious. (In addition to their longtime Rye business, they bought an inn in upstate New York earlier this year and have their own farm and soon their own winery.) For Cornerstone’s Thanksgiving menu, visit cornerstonecatrers.com/Menus/ Thanksgiving PFW.
While Cornerstone offers fully catered Thanksgiving service, they also have a free-standing shop at 544 Milton Road from which you can order and pick up all the trimmings: hors d’oeuvres, child-friendly foods, salads, platters, and baskets, traditional side dishes, vegetables, breads, and desserts. Call 967-0035.
The family Stone was nice enough to share the recipe for a delicious seasonal salad.
In addition to offering standout meat and poultry, Crisfield’s makes great gravies and stuffings. Call 967-0152.
Orders are being taken now, and delivery is available.
The menu, available at the store, includes a selection of soups, traditional giblet gravy, cranberry and pear relish, various sides of seasonal vegetables, stuffings, and a small selection of traditional pies. Orders must be placed by Saturday, November 23. Call 967-1900.
