After the tryptophan has worn off and the pilgrim centerpieces have been packed away, most of us sit back and wait a year to get our cranberry sauce and stuffing fix. TGD wants to change that. The quick-serve restaurant, whose name stands for Thanksgiving dinner, dishes from-scratch versions of all the Turkey Day classics at locations in Oxford and Canton, Ohio. Diners slide down a service line and choose from a huge menu listing 133 meals under 500 calories. Options include bowls layered with mashed potatoes, meat and sides ($6.99); traditional combo plates (from $5.99); salads ($4.99); and even turkey nuggets ($2.49 for six). Not all the sides taste just like Grandma made, but the turkey is moist and flavorful and the pecan pie is downright decadent. tgd365.com
