Proper Eats, the food hall on ARIA's second level, is giving you a way out of cooking on Thanksgiving. On Thursday, Nov 26, its Ultimate Tailgate turns into an all-you-can-eat spread from the hall's counters for $59 a person, with a three-hour window, football on every screen and a $20 add-on for unlimited temaki hand rolls, and reservations are required. If you just want a sandwich, Parm is making a Thanksgiving Hero with roasted turkey, stuffing, cranberry mostarda and crispy onions, with warm gravy for dipping, on Nov 26 and 27 only, and the announcement lists it at $21. Before then, Proper Bar pours $2 oysters Monday through Friday from 4 to 6 p.m., and the $59 tailgate runs every Saturday and Sunday of football season.
