Dining Rooms that Wine and Dine

If you are a typical American, at some point today, you will most likely partake in a bountiful meal with family and friends as a time to celebrate and give thanks.  Where will your feast take place?  Do you have a formal dining room that will be jammed packed with people and dishes to pass?  Or do you layout a buffet for guests to dish themselves up with the delicious vittles?  Or will your gathering involve a smaller group in an intimate dining space?  No matter which way you slice the turkey, the food has to go somewhere and so do the people consuming it.  Here are a few inspirational dining spaces that fit a variety of Thanksgiving scenarios.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
