Ocean County Restaurants Hosting A Thanksgiving Buffet This Year
Here are some restaurants located in Ocean County, New Jersey that are not only open on Turkey Day, but preparing a Thanksgiving Buffet for you! Full transparency: big buffet guy here. Yeah, I know folks say they are not the healthiest for you. You overeat, over overindulge in portion size, desserts, and sodas. Of course just by science, one would surmise the risk of foodborne illness has to be much higher eating from a buffet, but I don't give a turkey's giblet, I love me a good buffet! I mean look at this kid! I also happen to love, love, LOVE Thanksgiving! I love the Parade, I love to cook, watch football, spend time arguing with family members, and if it's at my place, which it usually is, I love rippin' beers! However, I get that not all folks like to cook at home, or even can cook a meal of epic proportions in their kitchen. Quite frankly, some people can afford to go out and have the cooking done for them, without the labor and dishwashing. Hence the need for a Thanksgiving Buffet list in our area. We Found 7 But Not Much More Yet Using my own Thanksgiving Buffet Spidey Sense, along with social media and the likes of Yelp, I was able to uncover some of the heavy hitters in the Turkey Day, one-price, all-you-can-eat, super spread game. Some are long-standing restaurant legends in Ocean County, who have been rocking a Thanksgiving Buffet for decades. Others while not as steeped in such rich tradition, have made a name for themselves with their holiday chaffing dishes and carving stations over the past 10 years or so. Suffice to say, the menu from all 7 of these places, while expectedly looking somewhat similar, all are mouthwatering. If I find more places in Ocean County hosting a Thanksgiving Buffet this year, I will add it to our list! https://www.instagram.com/p/DA8UH7CpSvh/
