Thanksgiving week…

Can you feel it?  There is that wonderful buzz in the air that comes from the holidays.

It has definitely been all hands on deck around here as we get things ready for the market and restaurants.  We hope that you have something wonderful cooking for Thanksgiving.  Just a reminder, this week McClendon’s Select will only be at tomorrow’s Wednesday Town & Country Farmer’s Market. We will not be at the Saturday market in Old Town Scottsdale.  Our normal market schedule will resume next week.  We hope to see you tomorrow, there will be plenty of fresh produce for your Thanksgiving feast.

For those of you with family and friends in town this weekend and looking to do something other than cook once your Thanksgiving feast is done, you may want to try the new True Foods Kitchen in the Scottsdale Quarter.  We were invited to attend the pre-opening dinner the other weekend, and they have done a beautiful job both with the new restaurant and the menu.  Chef Michael Stebner has brought some of the favorites from the Biltmore True Food Kitchen, as well as added some new dishes.  He has found a way to make healthy food taste delicious and decadent.  Everything is a fresh and flavorful as you would expect from True Foods, and who doesn’t want something that is guilt-free after Thanksgiving?  We were honored to be introduced to Dr. Andrew Weil, it is his principals of the Anti-Inflammtory Diet & Food Pyramid that serves as the basis for the True Foods concept.  He is a lovely person, and is truly dedicated to eating seasonal, local and organic.  The menu reflects all of those principles.  That alone should make you feel better.

There is much to enjoy this week!
