Festive look at where to dine Christmas day

HOA! Don’t look now but that old Christmas

sleigh is fast approaching. So you'd better watch

out, you'd better not cry. ... But what if you haven't started shopping or haven’t sent out any Christinas cards or haven't got a new suit or haven’t found out whose naughty and nice or, most important, haven’t secured somewhere to eat on Christmas Day?

Remember fast year? The in- Jaws came over, right. The turkey got scorched. Your father-in-law waded too deep into the single

_malt and decided to show you how his piatoon took Pork Chop Mill.

Your wife came apart after shopping for three weeks straight and then had to spend ail day cooking a complete tuskey dinner “for your family ..2 MR. STROOGE!'”

Well, relax. This year do what many wise North Shore men and women do on Christmas Day: leave the cooking to the profes- sionals and dine at a focal restau- rant.

The list below contains Table Hopping’s annual roundup of

Timothy Renshaw TABLE HOPPING

North Shore restaurants that serve special Christmas Day meals.

As far as we know the list is cemprehensive, but, apparently, we have been mistaken before. . Once.
