Happy Thanksgiving 2013 from Cebu, Philippines

      Okay, so neither of us has eaten Thanksgiving Dinner in a restaurant before. But we did this year, and it was great! No preparation - no dishes to do. Even better than that was the company!

      The name of the restaurant was "The Ranch," and the decor was very western. The chair seats were even stitched to look like the pocket on jeans. As you can tell, the dinner was the traditional turkey, dressing, cranberries, and potatoes and gravy. We did have to laugh at the President when the pumpkin pie came, and he said, "I'm glad I ordered a large piece." The pie was about 1/3 the size of a regular piece we would have at home. However, the meal was delicious and helped us realize it really was Thanksgiving Day.
