There’s nothing corned on this menu, and the closest we came to green beer is green Champagne. But our St. Patrick’s Day menu is full of ingredients—from cabbage to Guinness—that we’d like to see on our table. And since St. Paddy’s is a holiday on which drinking takes center stage, we’ve also got plenty of alcoholic options; we even spiked the dessert. Partaking in the celebration doesn’t have to involve a leprechaun hat or a four-leaf clover. Just dig in.
