OT: A Break in the Action, as Thanksgiving approaches. . .

[Kibitzer]

. . . I got to thinking about foods and dishes. Started with Brussels sprouts (Belgium in the news lately), and that triggered thoughts about other edibles or libations named for places on a map. Here are a few that leaped to mind:

Buffalo wings
NY strip steaks
Canadian Bacon
Swiss cheese
Baked Alaska
Bologna (but not for Thanksgiving)
Frankfurter (ditto)
Swedish meatballs
Champagne
​

I'm sure there are many more, so 'Yarders, here's your chance. When responding, add some to my starter list. Enjoy, and now...

GO!

Stuff your bird with buffalo wings, preferably hot; goes well creamed onions.

Port - Oporto
Cognac
Armagnac
Burgundy
Bordeaux
etc.
And one of my favorite drinks the Manhattan

Kudos on the Manhattan - wish I had thought of that.

I believe that your Manhattan becomes properly mixed when a Maraschino cherry is added. BTW, it is correctly pronounced ma-ra-SKEE-no (NOT ma-ra-SHEE-no).
