Thanksgiving is the best occasion for families to gather together. Millions of Italian American families will celebrate this holiday with the traditional thanksgiving meal, eating stuffed Turkey (with many recipes Italian-stlyle), mashed potatoes with gravy, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie, while sharing family values and traditions.

That’s the “family holiday,” and two, three, four generations of members of the family sit around the table to thank God for everything they have been blessed with, just as the Pilgrims and the Native Indians did hundreds of years  ago gave thanks for the good harvest they had.  

Even though Christmas is becoming more and more commercial, Thanksgiving  for Italian-Americans remains the one holiday, which maintains intact its family oriented value. 
Strong and consistent family values are still very important for the Italian community.

Thanksgiving is also the one day that really unifies the country as a  nation. It is the single holiday that everybody, independently of their skin color and religious beliefs celebrates.  

Even if you don't have your family or friends  in New York you can find cozy places were you will spend a Happy Thanksgiving.

i-Italy found some restaurants in New York City were you can have an Italian style Thanksgiving dinner combined with the warm and friendly atmosphere that only Italian and Italian-Americans can offer.
