Thanksgiving at Lucca + Provenance
Last year I attempted to make a Thanksgiving Turkey. Let’s just say it didn’t go so well. The bird was dry and I was kicking myself for not pre-ordering a meal as the stress that goes along with cooking Thanksgiving was enough to make me swear off ever wearing an apron ever again.
This year I am pre-planning and I wanted to share a take home Thanksgiving menu that is perfect for sharing. Lucca Cafe in Irvine has Thanksgiving 2 go. Lucca will roast while you host!
LUCCA’s Thanksgiving takeout dinner allows you to entertain 2 or 200 guests with ease and offers a special mouth-watering menu guaranteed to delight any budget and palate. Their traditional takeout dinners are capable of feeding up to 10 guests, and include a lavish spread featuring a Free-Range Turkey, stuffed and roasted to perfection, for $325 (add $32.50 per person for each additional guest). In addition, a complete meal for individual diners may be purchased for $32.50 each.
All meals must be ordered by Friday, November 21st for pick up on or before Thursday, November 27th at noon. Orders may be placed by calling (949) 725-1773.
