If you’re following Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommendations, you’re probably having a small Thanksgiving at home this year.
That doesn’t mean you have to go through all the work to have a traditional Thanksgiving meal — or even a non-traditional one.
Several businesses along the Route 1 corridor are offering special holiday catering or have other holiday-themed food and drinks available for pickup and/or delivery. But make sure to reserve your order as soon as possible, as some have already sold out.
And this is also a great way to support local businesses that have struggled during the coronavirus pandemic due to restrictions with indoor dining.
As always, let us know if we’ve missed anything in the comments.
