Don't want to cook Thanksgiving? Try these Central Jersey restaurants

Not into hosting Thanksgiving dinner? We get it. That would require cleaning the house just so for Aunt Marge, baking Cousin MIllie's apple pie just like she did 50 years ago, and basting the turkey every 20 minutes on the dot. If all this screams "NO" to you and yours, take the holiday and its hullabaloo to a Central Jersey restaurant on Nov. 26 and let them do the dirty work. These Central Jersey restaurants are ready to do the cooking, baking and cleaning on Thanksgiving for you. Some are open not just for dining in, but also for takeout, with the whole meal ready to go. Even Uncle Sid will be happy... maybe. Although they can't stop the political table talk or iPhone usage, these restaurants can offer turkey with every trimming − and you don't even have to set the table, though reservations are strongly recommended. Felina, Summit Elevated Italian comfort food prepared with modern techniques is the key to Felina restaurants. That will be on full display on Thanksgiving, when Felina in Summit will serve a prix fixe meal from 1 to 7 p.m. for $79 per adult and $30 per child under 12. Executive Chef Francesco

A pound cake can still be warm when it lands in your shopping bag. That alone should tell you what kind of place this is. The pretzels get twisted by hand and brushed with butter right in front of the counter. The line for them can stretch long, and nobody seems to mind.
