I realize this has been discussed in past years, but many restaurants that were mentioned are now closed, and so many new ones are opening. So, we are staying in Seacrest over Thanksgiving, and have no intention of cooking! We will either go out to eat at a restaurant, or go pick up prepared food. It will probably be my parents, me and my husband, and our 16 and 12 year old kids. I have the menu from Cowgirl Kitchen, and I know Publix is an option.

Do any places sell whole fried turkeys?

Any other ideas--either eat-in, or carry-out?? Prefer to keep it along 30-A, or pretty close.

Thanks!

There were a couple restaurants open last year on Thanksgiving Day and doing special meals - can't remember which ones, but the menus they posted were yummy sounding!

If you do go out to eat, please tip extra well - because they are there serving you, it means they don't get to celebrate the holidays w/ their family and friends!

I will be preparing "to go" Thanksgiving dinners at Cahn's this year. They have done it every year the past few...so I'll be carrying on the tradition. Last year they had fried and baked turkeys.
I am planning mashed potatoes, home made dressing, green bean casserole, sweet potato casserloe, cranberry compote, gravy, rolls and turkey...I am sure I'll add a few things. Plus some Piyyyyees :D
