Not in the mood to cook for visitors the rest of the weekend, either? Try Underbelly Hospitality’s Day-After Thanksgiving Gumbo — “just add turkey.” Pick up a signed copy of Shepherd’s new cookbook, Cook Like A Local, too! Great gift idea.

Tony's
Famous for its world-class fine dining, Tony’s has over time also become synonymous with good old-fashioned homestyle comfort food, too — at Thanksgiving, anyway. It offers package deals for either six or 12 and includes all the usual suspects that grandma used to make, as in roasted turkey, gravy, cornbread stuffing, mac & cheese, cranberries, sweet potatoes with both pecans and marshmallows, pumpkin pie and more! And for those wanting to add some of Tony’s Italian touch to the holiday menu, a la carte sides include lasagna, meatballs and cannoli for dessert!
