Popular Sandy Springs establishment Zafron Restaurant recently released its Thanksgiving menu, and it’s filled with all the traditional favorites we mentioned and more. 

Now, we know what you’re thinking: Zafron is known for its Persian cuisine, right? Well, yes — it’s been a local favorite for several years thanks to its Middle Eastern menu of hummus and kebabs and fresh salads. But owner and chef Peter Teimori says he also enjoys being a "home away from home" for customers on Thanksgiving, which means cooking turkey and cranberry sauce alongside the restaurant’s usual lamb and lentil and raisin rice.

Oh, and the restaurant is also selling its pies to-go for Thanksgiving — which means you can pick up an apple, pumpkin, or pecan pie to complete your own at-home meal. Zafron Restaurant is located at 236 Johnson Ferry Road in Sandy Springs — that’s right next to the city’s big City Springs development.
