THE VEGNEWS A TO Z GUIDE TO THE HOLIDAYS • THE HOLIDAYS: The food-filled stretch of time from Thanksgiving to New Year’s Eve that may just be our favorite time of year. From deliverable family feasts to the decolonial way we’re eating in November to vegan leftovers so epic that they just may overshadow yesterday’s mains, we’ve arrived in the season of good eats, good cheer, and good company. So let VegNews walk you through everything you need to know to make this holiday season the jolliest (and tastiest) yet.

SEASON’S EATINGS • ‘Tis the season for joy and making long-lasting memories with friends and family as you gather around festive feasts. Between Thanksgiving and its delicious iterations—Friendsgiving, anyone?—and the gift-giving holidays come December, there’s nothing like enjoying comforting fare with those you love most. Save the glam for your holiday party, because it’s time for some epic vegan eats.

Home (made) for the HOLIDAYS • A glistening, succulent, peppercorn-studded vegan roast basted in a reduced brown sugar-infused glaze. A French-style beef bourguignon made with Pinot Noir, tender pearl onions, and fresh herbs. A delicate chocolate buttercream cake made of 20 layers of super-thin crêpes doused in a thick, vanilla bean-flecked caramel sauce.

So don your aprons and bust out the wine glasses, because the holidays start now.

The Gift of Chocolate • It’s time to stop overthinking stocking stuffers: Everybody. Loves. Chocolate. VegNews editors looked far and wide in search of the gotta-have-it, melt-in-your mouth chocolate treats and novelties that will make your gift giving extra sweet this year. So don’t stress (and remember, you deserve a chocolaty gift, too!), because here are our top 10 picks.

DIM SUM And Then Some • An escape to always warm and always sexy Miami is made even hotter thanks to Minty Z, an all-vegan restaurant turning out some serious dim sum.

SPOON, FORK, New York • One of the greatest joys of New York City is exploring its vegan food scene. You could easily spend a week here and barely scratch the surface with everything from burgers and milkshakes to French macarons, Italian classics, Ethiopian cuisine, and beyond. But don’t be overwhelmed—VegNews contributor and New York native KAT SMITH shares their...
