When it comes to the word "classic" what comes to mind? Maybe it's an image of a classic car that pops into your head. Or, perhaps you recall a favorite joke, a fond memory of a hilarious mishap, or possibly a favorite movie that you have referred to as a "classic." The word classic means something that is a perfect example of a particular style, something of lasting worth or with a timeless quality. It denotes a particular quality in art, architecture, etc. Here at Yves, when it comes to our menu, some of the choices are truly classics with a twist. One great example of this would be the hamburger. Here at Yves, we offer you eight different varieties of this classic. One of our top sellers is the "Kobe Kobe" Style. A huge 1/2 lb. Prime Kobe style beef, grilled hot house tomatoes, romaine lettuce and aged creamy Gorgonzola cheese served on a Kaiser roll with habanero roasted red bell pepper aioli. Also equally popular is our "French" burger which consists of Brie, brandied mushrooms and onions, Dijon aioli on a French baguette. These are just a few of our mouthwatering creations. Stop in soon and give one a try!

The classic Thanksgiving menu of turkey, cranberries, pumpkin pie, and root vegetables is based on New England fall harvests. In the 19th century, as the holiday spread across the country, ;ocal cooks modified the menu both by choice and by necessity. Today, many Americans delight in giving regional produce, recipes, and seasonings a place on the Thanksgiving table. In New Mexico, chilies and other southwestern flavors are used in stuffing, while on Chesapeake Bay, the local favorite, crab, often shows up as a holiday appetizer or as an ingredient in dressing. In Minnesota, the turkey might be stuffed with wild rice, and in Washington, locally grown hazelnuts are featured in stuffung and desserts. In Indiana, persimmon puddings are a favorite Thanksgiving dessert, and in Key West, key lime pie joins pumpkin pie on the holiday table. Most of the regional variations have remained largely a local phenomenon, a means of connecting with local harvests and specialty foods. However this is not true of influential southern Thanksgiving trends that had a tremendous impact on the 20th century Thanksgiving menu. Corn, sweet potatoes and pork form the backbone of traditional southern home cooking and these staple foods provided the main ingredients in southern Thanksgiving additions like ham, sweet potato casseroles, pies and puddings and corn bread dressing. Othe popular southern contributions include ambrosia salads, biscuits, a host of vegetable casseroles, and even macaroni and cheese. Unlike the traditional new England menu, with its mince, apple and pumpkin pie dessert course, southerners added a range and selection of desserts unknown in Northern dining rooms, including regional cakes, pies puddings and numerous cobblers. Southern cookbooks and magazines also helped popularize many of these dishes in places far beyond their southern roots. Some, like sweet potato casserole, pecan pie, and cornbread dressing have become as expected on the Thanksgiving tableas turkey and cranberry sauce. So, what foods will be served at your family table this Thanksgiving? We wish everyone a very happy Thanksgiving to spend with friends and loved ones. Enjoy!
