Welcome to the December 2020 edition of The Splendid Table Coop! While this holiday season is certainly nothing we could have predicted, some needs remain the same: good food and drink. Which is why we present to you this curated menu of drinks (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic) and a spread of appetizers and snacks to delight you and your family… or maybe just you and your cat. No judgement here.
