Aspen Restaurants Events

Thanksgiving in Aspen.

Thanksgiving has always been one of the more interesting holidays in my book.  It all started with a “stray dog” thanksgiving one year at college.  A few of us stayed at school for the holiday break and were invited to a faculty member’s home for the holiday.  There we found 20 unrelated people enjoying each others company with a feast of food and cocktails.

That is what sets this holiday apart.  Its key ingredients are good food, good drink, and good people. Family is nice, but not necessary.  A large part of Aspen is made of transplants that left friends and family “Back East” or elsewhere, and because of this, Aspen has a great tradition of welcoming randoms together to form that “family”.  So I hope you find yourself at someone’s table or find someone at your table.  If not there are a few Aspen Restaurants and others that invite you to dine.
