Golden Corral

For some, Thanksgiving is the time of year where they get the chance to show off their amazing pie recipe to friends and family. It's a time to gather around the table and taste test everyone's mashed potatoes, carve the ham and drink festive cocktails all while having a good time. For others, however, it's a stress-inducing day that leaves them with mounds of dishes to cleanup and way too much food leftover from the event. And while hosting at-home is a wonderful feeling, if you happen to wonder if Golden Corral is open on Thanksgiving, we wouldn't judge you in the slightest bit.
