Join VSDC for a Thanksgiving Day gathering at 1 pm at Elife Vegan Restaurant in Capitol Heights, Maryland. We are pleased to organize another gathering on this special day of gratitude, partnering with our good friends at Elife, an all-vegan and black-owned business. This event is on Thanksgiving Day – Thursday, November 28, 2024, from 1 to 3 pm.
VSDC is planning to show an interesting video that day and do a fun (and educational!) trivia game at the event – with prizes – so plan to participate!
The menu for the day will include more Thanksgiving-oriented items from which to choose. These likely will be:
**Entrees*
*- Sliced Mock Turkey*
*- Sliced Mock Ham*
*- Savory Sage Drumettes*
*- Maple Curry Drumettes*
**Sides*
*- Stuffing with Cranberries*
*- Cornbread Dressing*
*- Mac & Cheese*
*- Collard Greens*
*- Kale Greens*
*- Candied Yams*
*- Fresh Cranberry Sauce*
**Dessert – slices of over 10 varieties of cakes and pies, e.g. Sweet Potato Pie, Chocolate Cake, Cookies and Cream Cake, Pina Colada Cake, Bean Pie*
Do RSVP on this meetup page but **you must prepay to Elife directly to be registered for this event**. The price for one entree and two sides is $21 plus tax and tip – a great price for Thanksgiving! It will need to be paid directly on their website. Beverages and desserts are extra and can be purchased that day.
*The Elife link for Thanksgiving will be live very soon so please do not delay once it is active.*
The location is Elife, 9033 Central Ave, Capitol Heights, MD 20743. There is ample free parking in front of the restaurant.
Note: Public transportation does not provide easy access to this location, esp on Thanksgiving Day. If not riding in a car to the event, then uber or lyft could be a good option to Elife from the Metro Blue line. Please check your options well in advance and decide how you can attend.
Elife has a seating capacity over 75 people so there is plenty of room.
***Let’s come together and celebrate Thanksgiving in a festive way at this all-vegan event!***
