New Year’s Eve Gourmet

Say goodbye to 2009 in style by making plans to spend New Year’s Eve wining and dining at vegan gourmet restaurants. At upscale New York eatery Candle 79—voted “VN Restaurant of the Year”—Chef Angel Ramos will serve guests a decadent four-course prix fixe dinner capped off with a celebratory champagne toast. Members of the Golden State shouldn’t miss out on gourmet offerings at famed eatery Millennium Restaurant, where a decadent five-course prix fixe menu includes wine pairing. Finally, residents of the city of brotherly love are privy to a seven-course feast—including a sampler of three desserts—at the luxurious Horizons Restaurant.
