Post Date: 11-18-2011
Feeling the Thanksgiving Day spirit but don't want to spend all your time in the kitchen? Have no fear, friends -- our Rocketts Landing restaurants are ready to take over the wining and dining so you can sit back, relax and enjoy your time with family. Each restaurant is offering something a bit different, so you can choose a meal to fit your mood, palate and schedule.
As a Key West-themed restaurant, Conch Republic is offering a traditional Thanksgiving Day buffet with "a twist of the Keys." You'll enjoy traditional dishes such as smoked turkey, baked honey ham and corn pudding, with the addition of a seafood station that includes mussels, crab claws, oysters, crawfish and more. Top this meal off with your choice of Key Lime pie, pecan pie or chocolate torte, and a complimentary glass of wine, and you’ll finish the day pleasantly Key West stuffed.

Offering French-inspired Southern cuisine, M Bistro will open up their doors on Thanksgiving Day to indulge guests in a four-course meal featuring starter plates, soups, entrees and desserts. Included dishes range from braised short rib wellington with a rich demi-glace to crab bisque and a cranberry Grand Marnier duck breast. Every guest receives a complimentary glass of sparkling wine, but we suspect their awesome wine selection might tempt patrons to enjoy another glass or two.
