Happy Thanksgiving to all of our American friends! Carry on reading for tips on where to buy your turkeys and where to gobble up a dinner in Tel Aviv!
Turkeys, Cranberry Sauce, and Canned Pumpkin:
Most of the large supermarkets (with a butcher inside) can order you a Turkey – but get there quickly, it usually takes a few days to arrive! Click here for our Guide to Butchers in Tel Aviv.
Apparently a good bet for canned pumpkin is the Asian shop ‘East West Store’ – with branches in Shuk HaCarmel, Sarona Market, and Ramat HaChayal.
It’s very difficult to get fresh cranberries now, but most supermarkets stock frozen cranberries.
For those up for a trip to Raanana, Meatland is usually stocked with Cranberry sauce, pumpkin pie filling, stuffing, and turkeys. You can also check out answers in the Group.
If you don’t fancy cooking this year… Here are some good communal dinners and parties you can join!
