If you’re going to have it at your apartment, plan ahead. Nothing is worse than scrambling last minute to the grocery store to find something that you need for the dinner. Make a list the week before and go to the grocery store to get everything you need early. If you get everything down on paper, it not only makes it easier to make sure you get everything but it makes your trip less frantic.
To alleviate a little of the pressure off of the host, have a potluck. Everyone cooks their own dish and brings it together for a big feast. Make it even more interesting by having everyone creating their favorite dish rather than a traditional Thanksgiving dish. You get to enjoy favorites from all of your closest friends while spending time together.
You don’t have to cram 20 friends in your apartment. It can be much easier to get a group together and go out to dinner instead. It takes the pressure off of the host and those cooking the meal. Put the burden on someone else! La Diosa Cellars has some amazing dishes that will warm your soul and fill your belly. Pizza is a little untraditional for Thanksgiving but this is Friendsgiving and La Diosa has amazing pizza! Dos Tacos Papasito will have you coming back for more. Seared pork belly glazed in mango, tequila and jalapeno: to die for.
Since Friendsgiving isn’t a traditional kind of celebration, it calls for unique and interesting food. Take it to another level with Thanksgiving breakfast instead of dinner. The Cast Iron Grill (5 minutes away from U Lofts) serves up a hearty breakfast that will leave you and your friends sleepy and full. You can’t go wrong with an omelet so take your pick from veggie, pork, Western or Cast Iron. Go all in with a country style breakfast of biscuits and gravy or a big stack of French Toast (just in time for French Toast Day on November 27th). Get Friendsgiving breakfast out of the way and have the rest of the day to recover and hang out with your pals.
After you indulge in your dinner feast, bring your group back to U Lofts for a movie in our amazing stadium seating movie theater. Pop up some popcorn and kick back with your friends for a relaxing evening in.
Going home to spend Thanksgiving with your family is great but it’s more fun to enjoy a dinner with all of your friends that you made with your own hands (or ordered from a restaurant). Do you and your friends have a Friendsgiving tradition?
