I agree. The "senior staff" as in longest there, have asked off to be with their families and they were probably given the time off in many cases.
Turkey is tricky to serve, getting the little bones out etc and cutting it attractively and many, (Maybe ALL) restaurants use pre-prepared and that doesn't do a Turkey any good. Never like fresh out of the oven.
Just all kinds of reasons why the big holiday dinners aren't WONDERFUL at many restaurants.
I LOVE everything about Bob Evans Turkey dinner BUT the Turkey. I love the dressing, the cranberry sauce, the mashed potatoes, the gravy, the rolls, but the Turkey is not up to par with Turkey out of the oven. NOWHERE. Nada. In any restaurant.
