Our friends at Restaurant News did it again!  Here's the list of the restaurant chains open for Thanksgiving this year.  Making a home-cooked meal for Thanksgiving is how some families spend the day but a surprising number of people prefer to skip the preparation, cleanup, and house full of relatives.  Instead, they opt for a chef who works their magic and a server team to handle the legwork!  An added benefit to dining out, you can avoid all those pesky leftovers and seconds that are bound to sabotage your diet plans when a restaurants whisks in a meal and then clears it away in the same sitting. 

The Restaurant Brokers have been on both sides of the fence.  We've been the recipients of a fabulous home cooked meal, we've been the ones cooking the turkey and we've dine out.  What's the best experience?  It depends on your own unique situation.  More and more families are gathering together but opting for dining out.  We can't blame those who want to leave the cooking to specialists.  Especially not after reviewing this list of fantastic chain restaurants who are staying open to make your Thanksgiving meal an unforgettable one!
