One of the biggest food days of the year is coming soon and perhaps you’re looking for somebody else to do the cooking. Fortunately, there are some restaurants here to save the day. Here’s a list of businesses offering pre-order options, as well as places that will be open on Thanksgiving Day. You’ll want to get your pre-orders in soon too because many restaurants have told me their supplies are limited this year.
This will be a working list, so save think link, check back often to see what updates are made. As the big day looms closer, I know many more restaurants will officially confirm they will be open or available for preorder.
As always, if I missed something, send over an email to wichitabyeb@gmail.com.
