Food for thought: the day after Thanksgiving is usually one of the busiest for plumbers, since so many people have pushed their garbage disposals to the breaking point.

If you'd like to dine out on Thanksgiving with family or friends, a few Oakland restaurants are hosting events and/or have special menus available. Here's a look at several spots around The Town where you can share a meal with the people you care about.

Kincaid's
1 Franklin St.

Open from 11am-8pm, a representative told Hoodline the restaurant is booked for parties of six and larger on Thanksgiving, but reservations and walk-ins may still be available on a first-come, first-served basis; find out more on their website or by calling 510-835-8600.

Unlike some other restaurants, Kincaid's is only serving a holiday menu; its regular offerings will not be available.
