Thanksgiving To Go
Thanksgiving looks a bit different this year. Chances are you'll be cooking for a smaller gang. Oh, don't want to cook? These local chefs and restaurants have everything you need to make the meal memorable.
In Good Company @ingoodcompanynash
This Nashville-based private chef and catering company is offering smaller portions along with their usual larger Thanksgiving meals in case meeting up with friends or family isn't possible this year. They are also offering an option to donate food to others or to send food to loved ones around Nashville. Half pans for 2 or 4-6 people include such things as sweet potato casserole, multiple dressings, and roasted rosemary fall vegetables; sausage balls and ham and cheese sticky buns are available by the dozen; Lillian St. Bread and Wise Butter can be added to your order; and don't forget dessert! Roasted banana bread, spiced buttermilk chess pie, fall cupcakes or cookies will do just fine. View the menu on Instagram and order online for pickup in store, at East Nashville or Richland Farmer's Market, or delivery.
