Link Restaurant’s Group's Gianna Restaurant will offer the traditional Italian-American Christmas Eve dinner, known as the “Feast of the Seven Fishes,” for two nights only in December: Wed Dec. 11 and Wed Dec. 18. Feast of the Seven Fishes is available as a four-course communal, family-style meal with wine pairings.
The menu begins with a first course of clam toast with marinated cherry tomatoes and sourdough as well as tuna carpaccio with Meyer lemon, capers and shallot. The second course is cioppino with swordfish, mussels, shrimp and puccia bread. The third course includes a whole roasted Gulf fish with spaghetti, anchovy, and breadcrumb with grilled broccolini and Parmesan. The dessert by Link Restaurant Group Executive Chef Maggie Scales is tiramisu with chestnut and amarena cherries. Each course is paired with featured table wines to complement the menu. Feast of the Seven Fishes stems from the Catholic tradition of abstinence, whereby Catholics would refrain from eating meat the night before Christmas Day. In exchange, they would honor the occasion without breaking tradition by feasting on fish instead. A limited number of tickets will be available for $130 per person, plus tax and gratuity.
