A deeply flavored French onion soup topped with baguette slices and melted Gruyére cheese makes an elegant beginning to our traditional menu. The centerpiece of the feast is a prime rib roast, a classic entrée for Christmas dinner. Ours is coated with herbes de Provence and accompanied by mashed potatoes and creamed spinach. For a showstopping finale, serve a gorgeous pear and cranberry pie topped with a lattice crust. For this celebratory meal, set a splendid table with your finest linens and dinnerware. Bring out your sparkling stemware and pour a full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon – a perfect match for the beef.
