Thank you for that. Also as an American, I too have never heard of this. When I saw the words Alice and restaurant, I thought back to the TV sitcom called Alice from the 1970's-1980's who worked at Mel's Diner. As far as American Thanksgiving staples I'm aware of, it's: * Macy's Thanksgiving Parade * (American) Football * Turkey dinner * Charlie Brown Thanksgiving (+ maybe Garfield)
