For a stress-free and entirely memorable Thanksgiving 2016, Lanier Islands is rolling out the red carpet to couples, friends and families who want to forego the hassle of preparing the holiday meal and picking up afterward in favor of a festive outing with all the “trimmings.” In addition to a Thanksgiving feast of epic proportions expertly prepared by the Islands’ culinary team on Thursday, November 24, the Southern lakeside destination will play host to its renowned holiday light show, a flurry of fun at LanierWorld Winter Adventure, a trio of NFL matchups on the five-story high Spectacular Screen and appearances from the Big Guy himself… Santa Claus for what promises to become a beloved new tradition for many and a wonderful way to kick off the holiday season.
With seatings from noon to 6 p.m., the menu for the Thanksgiving Buffet will feature herb roasted turkey, slow roasted angus prime rib, and mustard and peppercorn ham at the carving stations, in addition to made-to-order salads, seared scallops, pan seared breast of Muscovy duck and more. Guests won’t want to miss side items such as the brown butter mashed potatoes, maple sweet potato soufflé, brioche pan dressing with savory vegetables or Brussel sprouts with apples and sweet onions – just to name a few. A full bar will offer a variety of adult beverages, including Bloody Marys and Mimosas. Pricing for the buffet is just $49.95 per adult, $44.95 per senior, $29.95 per child 6-12 and free for children 5 and under. Reservations are required and can be made by calling 770-945-8787.
