That time of the year is almost here, Changchun’s most famous Thanksgiving dinner at the newest Grandpa’s in the Ouya New Life mall.  This dinner is Grandpa's ninth Thanksgiving dinner and has become a beloved tradition in Changchun.

The finest and freshest ingredients available including turkeys imported from the USA will be used. Everything will be made from scratch, even  the breads and pies. Many of the recipes are from my family's kitchen and will be cooked and hosted by me to ensure the most delicious down home Thanksgiving dinner in all of China.

This dinner will take place at the New Grandpa's Kitchen in the Ouya New Life Mall (欧亚新生活). The new location will allow us to expand the dinner with a very beautiful and comfortable environment for all.

Since Thanksgiving is a family holiday and many here are without family, this is the best time to join our Changchun family and enjoy an authentic Thanksgivings dinner.  It goes without saying, the most important ingredient in any Thanksgiving dinner is the good family and friends.
