Good Taste with Tanji - Wine, food and fun with Tanji Patton.

Calling all of Texas! Consider yourself officially invited to take part in a huge holiday tradition. This year, beginning on November 18th and lasting thru January 8th, the Westin La Cantera transforms their gorgeous grounds into a life-size, interactive Winter wonderland! So get busy corralling those kiddos…they’ll love the toy and ornament making. Not to mention 1200 sq. feet of real ice skating, even one-on-one time with Santa (oh yes, he’ll be there!).

It’s that time of year to give back, and that’s exactly the Westin’s intention. Many of the proceeds gathered from this ongoing extravaganza are being donated straight to charity! Be sure to take in a meal or two while you’re there as well…the eats are especially good during the holiday season. For more details about menu items and other events on the agenda, click here…

You will see snow here, this I can promise you. Come celebrate!

P.S. How about a holiday recipe or two from my friends here? Take a stab at Francesca’s South Texas Antelope…tender and divine! There’s also hickory smoked duck – a specialty from Executive Chef Chef John Armstrong IV, or for dessert, who doesn’t love a good bread pudding? Make that moist, Pumpkin Cherry Bread Pudding. It’s incredible!
