Yo, Philly in the News
We just received an email from Michael, who writes:
Hey guys,
I am traveling to Philly with my brother and my girlfriend to meet my parents for Thanksgiving weekend. Any suggestions on a good restaurant we can hit for a traditional Thanksgiving dinner that's not too pretentious or fancy?
Thank you in advance,
Michael
PS - congrats on your world series!
First of all, we'd like to thank Michael for remembering the Phils—not that anyone should forget.
Secondly, we'd like to pose that question to you, our readers. We know that Bridget Foy's has a yummy-looking Thanksgiving menu set for Turkey Day, but we don't usually go out on holidays (much as we'd sometimes like to), so we're afraid we can't be of much help. Leave a comment and let us know where you like to spend your non-traditional Thanksgiving Dinners.
Come on. Do it for Michael. He understands what we'll be most thankful for this holiday: the end of our major sports championship drought.

I'm fairly certain that leaving Coquette the other night we saw a sign in the window about Thanksgiving dinner. No info on the website, but it might be worth a call to check it out, as their food is normally delicious.
I got an email saying Chez Colette in the Sofitel was doing a special "brunch" from 2 to 8 with a menu that looked good.
I would check out the pages on one of my favorite sites: opentable.com. They have this one listing Thanksgiving restaurant specials in the area:

It also says you can just just plug in the date and time as normal and it will list all restaurants that are open.
Enjoy!
It's nothing fancy and they have it all year round, but I'm still a fan of the Thanksgiving dinner at Jones.
