For Those Not About to Cook Thanksgiving Dinner, We Salute You
I think Thanksgiving is a bit of a throwaway holiday--it precedes a national day of shopping or not shopping, and trying to fly home to eat a predictable meal while making predictable conversation with your relatives wreaks havoc on your wallet. So why go through the trouble? Stay here and go out with your (like-minded) friends for a meal instead. Here are some ways to celebrate locally--and without mucking up a single measuring spoon.
You can find special T-Day menus (price per person) at Longman & Eagle (9pm seating only; $20-65), Fox & Obel (1pm, 3pm and 5pm; $17-30), Chief O'Neill's (seatings run 2-7pm), Prairie Fire (seatings run 2:30-7:30pm; $45), C-House (seatings run 4-9pm; $19-45), and Benny's Chop House (noon-8pm, $30 for turkey, additional for sides). Gobble gobble.
