Tired of talking turkey every Thanksgiving? This pan-Asian Menu, inspired by the chefs of some of Vancouver's trendiest fusion hot spots, will spice up your holiday feast. And don't let the recipe names or ingredients scare you -- the menu was designed specifically with the home cook in mind.

Chili-lager Steamed Mussels
Serve these yummy mollusks, fashioned after the ones on the menu at wine bar Bin 941 in Vancouver, with crusty bread for mopping up the sauce.Five Spice Duck With Ginger-Plum Sauce
Inspired by an entree served at Zin, a hotel restaurant in Vancouver's West End, this easy-to-prepare dish is so posh everyone will be impressed.

Spicy Sautéed Long Beans With Tamari Almonds
This menu was inspired by a dish served at Wild Rice, a beautifully designed restaurant located near Vancouver's vibrant Chinatown. The beans are pleasantly hot and have a crisp, fresh texture.

Scallion Pancakes
Serve a short stack of these savoury green onion pancakes with the duck so that you can mop up every drop of glistening sauce.

Toasted Coconut Sticky Rice Pudding
Based on a dessert featured on the Wild Rice menu, this Asian twist on an old favourite is both comforting and exciting.
