Raclette, which involves a lot of food besides the cheese prepared in little pans or on a grill.

    We usually get blinis with caviar and CrΓ©mant. We haven't decided on anything else yet.

    I’m not sure about New Year’s Eve, but New Year’s Day is a big day for tradition with my wife. We always have pork, greens, and black eyed peas every New Year’s Day. It’s some sort of old tradition.

    (When I made this post with voice dictation, it capitalized Black Eyed Peas, so I guess it thought that I was going to have Fergie and the boys over. πŸ€”)

    Oliebollen, and probably too many :)

    Last year I had to stand in line for up to two hours to get a fresh batch on the 31st. Even appeared on local tv because of the huge line.

    Not sure where and when I’m going to get this year’s batch, but I definitely don’t want to have a repeat of last year.

    My wife and I will have a quiet dinner together at home. At some point we started having lobster tail for New Years, and it's become kind of a tradition.

    The traditional new year's food of the place I grew up is pork roast and sour kraut cooked in a crock pot for about 8 hours, with mashed potatoes.

    We have crab cakes, some snacks you heat in the oven (jalapeno poppers and bean empanadas), tinned fish like sardines and similar, and cheese and crackers. And a "champagne" the Cava Raventos Blanc Blanc de blancs which is the best bubbly white wine I have ever had and not even expensive.

    New Year's Day is black eyed peas, collard greens, and potatoes. Yum.
