" I'm actually bringing it to Atlanta with me," says Musumano after justifying his purchase by saying it's for his "mommy."
Musumano, a first-time shopper, settled on Savenor's as his poultry store of choice because of its glowing reviews.
"I know it has a reputation for having good meat," he says, balancing a medium-sized turkey and small containers of gravy and side dishes in his left arm. "I knew they would do a good job."
After Savenor's has taken care of dinner by providing the turkey and homemade side dishes like stuffing and garlic mashed potatoes, all customers have to do is to enjoy the meal and take a nap.
"There's something in the turkey, plus a good football game and a full meal" that necessitates a Thanksgiving nap, Moreau says.
After a Savenor's dinner, he adds, "there's nothing better than sacking out on the couch."
Except for waking up to delicious leftovers, perhaps.
Savenor's is located at 160 Charles St. in Boston near the Charles/MGH T stop.
