What’s better than a Thanksgiving table full of your favorite foods?
How about a Thanksgiving table full of your favorite foods that required you to do zero preparation or dishes?
At Rosen Plaza, our talented chefs and culinary team have put together a Thanksgiving buffet menu that honors traditional dishes and introduces exciting new flavors to the holiday spread.
Here’s a preview of what you can expect from the 2024 Thanksgiving Buffet at Rosen Plaza.
Delicious Appetizers, Soups, and Salads
Begin your meal with a warm, hearty soup that is as comforting as it is tasty. This year, we’ll be serving a rustic yet refined roasted pumpkin soup with black truffle and thyme, as well as a minestrone packed with veggies like butternut squash, Swiss chard, and chickpeas.
Help yourself to salads that exude fall, like a wilted arugula salad with quinoa, roasted squash, caramelized onions, and cashews, or a healthy pearl barley salad with baby kale. A creamy, tangy goat cheese potato salad is a unique addition to a Thanksgiving feast.
If you prefer to start your Thanksgiving dinner grazing and nibbling, you’ll love our delicious (and visually stunning) spread of fresh fruit, impressive domestic and international cheeses, a colorful antipasto display, and our signature fluffy dinner rolls.
Signature Entrees and Unforgettable Sides
This year, expand your horizon beyond turkey and indulge in one of Rosen Plaza’s innovative entrees. Try a tender grilled swordfish with an olive relish or a juicy Thai peanut pork tenderloin bursting with flavor. Our braised Mediterranean beef will have you wondering how poultry ever was designated king of the Thanksgiving table.
Still, we know that it just wouldn’t feel like Thanksgiving without turkey, so our chefs have reimagined the dull, dry birds of yesteryear. Instead, you’ll be able to enjoy juicy sliced turkey thighs topped with a rich roasted shallot gravy, or a pumpkin seed pesto-crusted turkey breast with an oniony soubise sauce from our carving station.
Pair your entrees with traditional Thanksgiving sides like a delicious stuffing with dried fruit, creamy garlic Yukon gold mashed potatoes, and an autumnal rice pilaf with crunches of granny smith apple, cranberries, and pecans.
Special Stations
The deliciousness doesn’t stop with entrees and sides.
Our Thanksgiving buffet will also include a Seafood Station serving up specialties like New Zealand mussels and oysters, fresh peel and eat shrimp, and a variety of homemade cocktail and remoulade sauces for an extra pop of flavor.
Pasta lovers will want to visit our Make-Your-Own-Pasta station for a customizable pasta dish worthy of a Thanksgiving table. Choose from curly cavatappi, pillowy gnocchi, or tasty cheese tortellini and top it with a smooth marinara, creamy alfredo, or zesty vodka sauce.
Then, mix in your favorite pasta toppings to take your dish to the next level. Choose from condiments like onions, mushrooms, green peas, spinach, shrimp, pancetta, and chicken.
Kids with picky palates will appreciate our Kid’s Buffet, which will be fully stocked with favorites like peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, chicken tenders, potato tots, and mac & cheese.
Divine Desserts
It wouldn’t feel like Thanksgiving without a variety of classic desserts; luckily, you’ll find them all at the Rosen Plaza Thanksgiving buffet.
We’ll have scrumptious pumpkin, pecan, and apple pies that embody the harvest flavors of fall. Try them topped with some soft serve ice cream for pie a la mode.
There will also be decadent chocolate stout cake, a creamy crème brulée cheesecake topped with caramelized sugar, and a crunchy toffee cheesecake for a more unconventional approach to Thanksgiving dessert.
Finish your meal with a cup of hot coffee or tea as you digest and take a moment to reflect on what you’re grateful for this year.
