FareFinder: Turkey Day Getaway

While Thanksgiving is steeped in tradition, sometimes it's refreshing to not have to slave over a stove and prepare for the inevitable family questions (So when is name of your child here going to get married/have children/grow up?).

With that in mind, LXR Luxury Resorts & Hotels is offering a bunch of last-minute specials to whisk you away to some of the posh-est (is that even a word?) destinations for the upcoming holiday.

For example: The four-star Casa Marina Resort & Beach Club in Key West is rates starting at $149 nightly, a cool $100 off the regular price. Or how about a five-course meal with celebrity chef Gordon Ramsey at his namesake restaurant in the newly-redesigned The London West Hollywood for $85?

It might be worth the price of the meal just to seewhether Gordon flies off the handle at an unsuspecting cook or busboy. That would certainly be more entertaining than watching the winless Detroit Lions get trounced on Turkey Day.
