This Thursday is American Thanksgiving.

We've got the big list of places to dine out at, plus the other big list of places to order from if you plan on whipping up a feast (or contributing to one).

But why go big all the time when you can snack on simplicity? Maybe you just want a leftover turkey sandwich or a sweet potato snack? Well, look no further, here's five Thanksgiving treats to stave off the cravings until the main event.

1. Turkey and Waffles at Egg

Egg's at it again with their take on comfort concoctions. Slices of turkey over a mashed potato waffle (yes, you read correctly) and topped with gravy, 'stuffing' croutons, cranberry sauce and celery leaves. No complaints from us if this were to become a regular menu item...
RMB68/plate. Available Nov 24-27. 

See listing for Egg.

2. Thanksgiving Bagelwich at Spread the Bagel

Topped with turkey roasted in Boxing Cat IPA, smoked bacon, cream cheese, emmental and cranberry sauce, the 'Thanksgiving Fix Bagelwich', not only is this a solid lunch option, but we have a feeling it will also be a strong hangover cure if we go a bit heavy on the drinks during freindsgiving.
RMB70. Available now until Dec 1.

See listing for Spread the Bagel (Xintiandi), Spread the Bagel (Nanchang).

3. Turkey Bowl at Sproutworks

The infamous turkey bowl is back at Sproutworks. The bowl is a generous helping of turkey, stuffing, gravy and broccolini - simple and straigh to the point.
RMB60. Available now until Nov 27.

See listings for Sproutworks.

4. Cornbread Stuffing Waffle Set and Kentucky Pumpkin Ale at The Rooster

This deal is only offered until supplies runs out so get it while it's hot. This turkey plate comes on top of a cornbread stuffing waffle and decorated with turkey breast, gravy, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes and green bean casserole. Oh, and a free Kentucky Pumpkin Barrel Ale. 
RMB100. Nov 24, until supplies runs out.

See listing for The Rooster.

5. Sweet Potato Marshmallow Cookies (and Pumpkin Spice Cookies) at Strictly Cookies

Back again with their Thanksgiving Box, if you need something sweet to balance out all the gravy, Strictly Cookies has you covered. This assortment of pumpkin spice and (roasted) sweet potato marshmallow (which are topped with brown sugar) will not only put the office - and your stomach - in a festive mood, but also has you covered if you need a dish for a freindsgiving feast.
RMB108. Available Nov 21-27. Orders must be made one day in advance, but can be done via WeChat (StrictlyCookies完全) or orders@strictlycookies.com.
