Just in case anyone hadn't heard about it yet, Michael Dean's (Falls of Neuse Rd, just south of Spring Forest) is a nice restaurant that puts on an amazing Thanksgiving buffet every year. For us, with no family in town and leaving town tomorrow to visit friends for the weekend, it's a great alternative to cooking. You do have to reserve a spot, as they do fill up, but they have an online reservation system that's easy to use.
Here's the menu:
