Updated on 11/12/2018: After receiving numerous queries, I have updated the details in this post for Thanksgiving Day 2018 for the benefit of my readers.
My family does not celebrate Thanksgiving Day but my girls wanted to try some halal turkey this year. I decided to look for some options in the Greater Houston Area since I was not in a mood to cook an elaborate meal at home.
These are some places that I found which offer roasted halal turkey as part of a complete Thanksgiving dinner menu.
I must state that since I am yet to try any of these`places, I have not ranked them in any particular order.
