Celebrate Deliciously

From cozy nights in to countdown confetti, we've got a festive seafood spread to help you ring in the new year deliciously.

New Year's is upon us, and as we bid farewell to the old year and welcome the new, every celebration—small or grand—should start (and end) on a high note: with seafood!

Move over charcuterie—we're making waves this holiday season with a sea-cuterie board! This spin on the classic cheese plate is all about showcasing a delicious array of seafood. The possibilities are endless, but here are some of our favorite additions:

• 1lb cooked shrimp
• 2lb fresh clams
• 1dz fresh oysters
• 4 cooked lobster tails
• Smoked salmon or crab dip
• 5oz crab meat
• 1 Ahi poke kit

We also love layering in some rich, savory depth with smoked salmon or trout and a few tins of high-quality canned seafood. And don't forget the roe and caviar for a little celebratory pop! 

Round out your board with capers, cucumbers, lemons, olives, crackers, and this Herb Mignonette.

Whether you're celebrating early or staying up late, we've got delicious ways to mark the occasion. 

If you're making it an early night, sheet pan fish & chips is a crowd-pleaser. It's an easy one-pan meal—just add panko-coated cod and fries. Serve it with a glass of Martinelli's sparkling cider for a kid-friendly toast. 

Hosting a late-night shindig? Kick things off with a classic shrimp cocktail—effortless, elegant, and perfectly paired with bubbly. Make it from scratch, grab a ready-made platter from your neighborhood New Seasons, or go halvesies: prep the shrimp, buy the cocktail sauce. 

And for a decadent start to 2026, go with crab eggs Benedict. Swap the ham for crab meat (or a crab cake), drizzle on the buttery Hollandaise, and raise a mimosa.
