We had a vegetarian Thanksgiving this year at Counter in NYC. We went with our wonderful friends: Kurt, Heidi, Terence, Brandi and Justin. Oh and Heidi's mom was there too! The 8 of us had a lovely time!
Creamy Butternut-Miso with fried sage. Paired with Chardonnay, Cullen, Margaret River, Australia 2004. My only complaint is that they were skimpy on the wine portions. For the price, we should've been given full glasses.

Bitter Greens & Baby Beets with a roasted shallot vinaigrette. Paired with Andlau Riesling, Marc Kreydenweiss, Alsace, France 2005
Maple-Herb Roasted Seitan, Wild Mushroom & Sage Gravy, Apple-Fennel Stuffing, Candied Yams & Peaches with brown sugar, toasted pecans. Caramelized Green Beans, Cranberry-Chili Jam and Pull-Apart Potato Rolls. Whew... Paired with Tribute (Cabernet Blend), Benziger,Sonoma Mountain, California 2004.
I forgot to take a picture of dessert! I had the Pear-Cranberry Crumble with cinnamon ice cream and a candied pecan. Curtis had the Spiced Sugar Pumpkin-Apple Cake with nutmeg ice cream and a pumpkin seed brittle. It was paired with a dessert wine (Chianti Classico, Badia a Coltibuono, Italy 2002), which I didn't drink. (I hate dessert wine! So I gave mine to Heidi)

2 hours and $835 later, we were stuffed and happy. :)
