Thanksgiving is a wonderful day for those who love baking, cooking, braising and chopping. But what if your kitchen is roughly the size of a hatbox? Or if you’re like me and your culinary achievements include simple dinners and things such as toast and spaghetti? Or if you want to focus all of your attention on your extended family, you might be considering skipping the cooking altogether and having Thanksgiving dinner out.
Fortunately, Seattle and surrounding areas have an array of restaurants offering tasty Thanksgiving meals — for both dine-in service and takeout. So, check out the options, several of which we found with help from our readers, and book your table reservation or your takeout meal — then relax and enjoy.
