Craving Thanksgiving vibes but not ready to dive into a full-on feast? We’ve got you covered. These LA eateries are dishing out autumn-inspired bites to satisfy those seasonal cravings.
Riot House Restaurant, the eatery at the historic Andaz West Hollywood, is serving up a seasonal favorite: the Thanksgiving Leftover Sandwich. This elevated version features roasted turkey breast, cranberry aioli, wild arugula, and herb stuffing on toasted sourdough bread. Evoking Thanksgiving in every bite, the sandwich is paired with a side of crispy potato wedges and is available throughout the week.
The Andaz West Hollywood, formerly the Hyatt House, was nicknamed the Riot House due to the rowdy parties and behaviors of rock ‘n roll guests like Led Zeppelin, The Who, and The Rolling Stones. More info
Dog Haus, the beloved weinery chain that began in Pasadena, is serving two tasty twists on the iconic Thanksgiving dish Turducken through the end of November. Not familiar with Turducken? It was created in Louisiana in the ’80s and features a chicken inside a duck within a turkey that are all cooked together.
Dog Haus‘ variation, the Turducken Sausage, is a specialty sausage made up of turkey, duck, and chicken. You can order the sausage two ways: topped with creamy garlic aioli, warm turkey gravy, crispy onions and fresh scallions, nestled in a grilled King’s Hawaiian roll; and inside a Turducken Burrito, featuring turkey, duck and chicken sausage, three sunny-side- up eggs, white American cheese, sweet potato fries, caramelized onions and spicy mayo in a toasted flour tortilla. Dog Haus will donate $1 to the charity No Kid Hungry for each Turducken item sold.
