can you order thanksgiving dinner to go in minneapolis?
yes. tandoco cooks a full thanksgiving spread for pickup, delivery or catering drop-off across the twin cities: turkey, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese and a fall bakery table. order it as individual labeled plates or as family-size trays, and every item carries an allergen tag and a macro line. orders close saturday november 21.
when do i need to order thanksgiving dinner by?
saturday november 21, five days before the holiday. that is a hard close rather than a soft one, because everything is cooked to order and the kitchen buys against the final count. large catering drop-offs should land earlier if you can, since the last week fills first.
how much turkey do you need per person?
about one pound of whole, bone-in turkey per person, which comes out to roughly a third of a pound of actual meat once carved. if you are buying carved turkey rather than a whole bird, plan about six ounces per adult, closer to eight if your family treats friday's sandwich as part of the point. sides are where people under-order far more often than the turkey.
is the food cooked already, or do i finish it at home?
everything arrives fully cooked. you are reheating, not cooking. each item carries its own reheating instructions on its own label rather than one generic sheet for the whole order, and anything that goes soft in the oven, like a sauce or a topping, is packed in its own cup so it goes on afterward.
can you do a high-protein or glp-1 friendly thanksgiving?
that is most of the reason this menu exists. every plate carries its protein, calorie and fiber numbers on the label, so a portion-controlled holiday is a matter of reading rather than guessing. individual plates suit anyone on a glp-1 or tracking macros better than a shared tray, because the portion is decided in the kitchen instead of at the table. the full version of that, written for the holiday, is thanksgiving on a glp-1.
do you deliver on thanksgiving day?
no, and on purpose. pickup and delivery run in the days before thanksgiving, tuesday the 24th and wednesday the 25th, not on the holiday itself. the food is cold, fully cooked and in your fridge before thursday starts, so thursday is an oven and a timer rather than a delivery window.
can you handle food allergies at thanksgiving?
every item carries an allergen tag, and the menu includes plant-based options, for example the cloud nine roll, which is fully plant-based and made without any of the nine major allergens in the recipe. everything is made in a shared kitchen, so severe allergies should be flagged when you order. we are not an allergen-free kitchen.
do you cater friendsgiving or an office thanksgiving lunch?
yes. catering drop-off runs the same menu in family-size trays anywhere within 25 miles of downtown minneapolis. office thanksgiving lunches and friendsgiving usually run the week before the holiday rather than on the day itself, which is both easier to book and more likely to still have room.
