Revillion Dinner

Have you heard of a Revillion Dinner? It's a tradition that began in France and made its way to South Louisiana. It faded out for a time and was revived in the 1990s.  It's a feast, the night before Christmas, and the food... oh, mais, cha, awesome. Gumbo, lobster, oysters, foie gras, roasted meats, savory pies, and decadent desserts like Bûche de Noël, champagne, and canapes.  And don't forget the wine!

Check out my book,  The Holiday Murder Melange, and read about an amateur preparing a Revillion Dinner celebration while solving a murder.
