Instead of spending hours in the kitchen, some people will be turning to takeout for their Thanksgiving dinners.

It鈥檚 good news for restaurants who keep their doors open like聽聽in Seattle鈥檚 Queen Anne neighborhood.

The shop鈥檚 owner, Laiq Muhammad, planned on prepping 150 pizzas for anyone looking to ditch the turkey on Thanksgiving.



“Sometimes they miss their flights, sometimes their parents are here and they want to eat here,” he said.

Muhammad told 成人X站 7 he鈥檚 keeping his dining room open for those who can鈥檛 make it home for the holidays.

Thanksgiving Day advice: Control what you can, don’t come empty-handed

“We get to chat with them, make them feel comfortable and then enjoy. Make their special day, whatever they want to spend with us,” Muhammad said.

That same kind of comfort can also come from a box of Chinese takeout.

“We鈥檙e just prepping extra,” said Yen Ma, .



Ma says they鈥檒l also be open Thanksgiving, like many other restaurants in the Chinatown Internation District that don鈥檛 close for the holiday.

“I think we鈥檙e just hard workers,” Ma added. “We know how hard it is to make it in this country.”

She says they keep this tradition going for those who may not have one.

“Like a family for folks, who are you know away, from their family that might be in a different state or it鈥檚 just like a homey here,” Ma added.

A survey from Popmenu finds that more people are leaving the cooking to the pros.

Out of 1,000 people surveyed, they determined 37% are ordering takeout for Thanksgiving. It comes out to a 32% increase from last year.
