While it might seem like Halloween-time just ended, we are well on our way to the next of the fall holidays: Thanksgiving. As a holiday centered around food and family, it’s important to get the Thanksgiving meal just right. For some of us, that might mean making a quick trip to a local restaurant or deli to pick up a dish instead of spending hours in the kitchen.
Lucky for you, 225 Dine has you covered. Over the next few weeks, we’ll share some of the best places around Baton Rouge to grab Thanksgiving staples. We are starting off with the main event: the bird. Below are some great places to get a Thanksgiving turkey around the Capital City.
Stay tuned to 225 Dine for side dishes and dessert options over the next two weeks.
