Thanksgiving is rapidly approaching. If you’re not into cooking for days, don’t worry, you aren’t alone.
Sometimes you can be the most thankful when you aren’t stuck doing 3 hours worth of dishes. There are great options in Columbus to dine out, and even some that you can take the food home to your own table.
