Recipe: A Christmas Carol Menu

Misc.

Hi JW,
If you can get a copy the December 1994 Bon Appetit issue, "A Victorian Christmas" you will find more than recipies. There are articles on Sherry, Nutmeg, Victorian Open Houses around the country, and nine historic inns are featured with their recipes. Inother words, Way too much for me to retype. I will list some of the featured menus for you:
NOTE-- All starred (*) recipies are included in the magazine.
I. Six Victorian Celebrations pg.59
1.Christmas Dinner in the City for 10
Oysters on the Half Shell, Champagne, *Roast Prime Rib of Beef w/*Herbed Yourshire Pudding, *Deviled Cauliflower, Buttered Peas and Pearl Onions, Watercress Salad, Red Bordeaux, *Island Christmas Pudding w/*Gingered Rum Hard Sauce, Stilton and Walnuts, Port.
2.Tea Party for 8
(Basically finger sandwiches and spice cakes.)
3. Christmas Dinner in the Country for 8
*Root Cellar Soup w/Ham, *Roast Goose w/*Port-Thyme Gravy, *Apple & Onion Dressing w/*Fresh Sage, *Stout-& Orange-glazed Brussels Sprouts, Mashed Potatoes, Burgundy, *Pear & Almond Tart.
4. Breakfast with Saint Nick for 8
II.Chestnuts pg. 90
1.Boiled Chestnuts

Let me know if you need more inspiration. You might also try your local theater or newspaper for "A Christmas Carol" recipes or cookbooks.
