The festive spirit is also reflected in global celebrations, highlighted by the upcoming Vietnam Regional Specialties Fair, which will feature over 200 participants showcasing local culinary delights from various regions. Meanwhile, CORD restaurant in the UK is offering a festive set lunch and group menu, emphasizing seasonal flavors and creative twists on traditional dishes. In Los Angeles, Guelaguetza restaurant is preparing for its unique Oaxacan-style Thanksgiving, blending traditional turkey with mole and regional sides, reflecting the city's multicultural heritage.
