All rooms in the hotel have a kitchenette or kitchen, dining area and balcony, but the presence of cooking equipment doesn't mean you'll be actually cooking anything. For $40 a head ($12.95 for the kiddies, who hopefully have taken a manners class by then), Chef Richard Mendoza will feed you and yours a yummy dinner, starting with whole roasted Tom Turkey carved in your suite. Then you've got giblet gravy, chestnut stuffing, traditional green bean casserole, brown sugar glazed carrots, garlic and butter mashed potatoes, maple syrup glazed yams Grand Marnier and orange cranberry sauce, whole pumpkin pie, whole pecan pie and a relish tray of sweet pickles, olives, sweet peppers and tapenade dipping sauce.
We really appreciate that nobody's trying to make nutty Top Chef-esque molecular gastronomy "twists" on Thankgiving classics, like Turkey foam or creamy cranberry dishes or anything stupid. These are the basic, traditional yummies that should make you feel like you're at home when you're away from it.
And as a holiday bonus: some rooms at the Westin Imagine are starting at $139 if you book by November 17th, so get on it.
Conclusion: Thanksgiving in your hotel room doesn't sound so bad — but we think we'd still rather go to Milwaukee and get tanked.
