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

In addition, a severe thunderstorm warning has been issued for Monmouth and northwest Ocean counties until 5:15 p.m. Nov. 12. Just after 5 p.m., Asbury Park Press reporters across Monmouth and Ocean counties were reporting soaking rain and “pencil eraser-sized hail” falling across the region, which had left a layer of ice on the ground now and was drowning out conversations inside homes. Manchester Police sent out a public robocall at 5:55 p.m. urging the public to stay off the roads due to “slippery roadways” as a result of the severe weather. In New Jersey, the tornado watch includes eight counties in addition to Monmouth and Ocean. The other counties are Burlington, Camden, Hunterdon, Mercer, Middlesex and Somerset. The severe thunderstorm warning includes northwestern Ocean, central Monmouth, the eastern central portion of Mercer and southeastern Middlesex counties. At 4:39 p.m., a severe thunderstorm was located 14 miles northwest of Toms River, moving east at 25 mph, all according to the weather service.
