Happy Thanksgiving! There are plenty of ways to celebrate Thanksgiving here in Encino. Whether you are staying in to prepare a meal with your family or going out to dinner, this guide will help you find exactly what you need to make your holiday seamless and fun.
Before chowing down on one of the best meals of the year, many like to squeeze in a workout to balance out some of those delicious calories! If you’re committed to putting in some gym time on Turkey Day, check to see if your favorite gym in Encino is open for Thanksgiving! Some workout facilities, like Arena Fitness, even offer special Thanksgiving workout classes!
Cooking your own turkey this year? You can order whole turkey from local grocery stores, such as the Whole Foods Market in Tarzana, any of our community’s Ralph’s locations, and Gelson’s Markets in Encino. Be sure to order as early as possible so that you can guarantee you get a turkey!
Unless you’ve got an army of helpers in the kitchen, it can be pretty difficult to prepare the long list of everyone’s favorite side dishes. There’s not shame in ordering! There are a lot of great ordering options here in Encino. Claudine’s Kitchen and Bakeshop offers a variety of Thanksgiving sides and pies for customers to choose from. Coral Tree Cafe is another great option for ordering Thanksgiving sides to pick up!
No Thanksgiving meal is complete without dessert! If you don’t have time to bake a pie this year, don’t worry. Sweet Lady Jane has you covered! Order a couple of their delicious pies this year to cross dessert off your list. You can order their pies online and pick them up the day before Thanksgiving!
Don’t feel like cooking this year? Treat yourself and your family to dinner at one of our awesome local restaurants! Delmonico’s Steak and Lobster House in Encino is offering a special menu for Thanksgiving dinner full of fall classics like roasted turkey and pumpkin pie. Buca di Beppo will also be open and available for reservations, in addition to offering an extensive Thanksgiving catering menu.
