With all the great restaurants in Las Vegas, it’s not surprising it has some of the most popular in the country when Thanksgiving Day comes around.<\/p>\n

\"Turkey<\/a>
Americans eat so many pounds of turkey at Thanksgiving, it’s equal to the weight of the population of Singapore. We’re not making this up, for once.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

According to Foursquare, a location-based social networking site for mobile devices, Las Vegas has three out of 10 of the country’s busiest restaurants on turkey day.<\/p>\n

The three Las Vegas restaurants on Foursquare’s list are: Wicked Spoon Buffet at The Cosmopolitan (#1), Serendipity 3 at Caesars Palace (#4) and Mon Ami Gabi at Paris Las Vegas (#7).<\/p>\n

On of the first known uses of \"wicked\" in a way that meant \"wonderful\" was by F. Scott Fitzgerald in 1920.<\/a>

We can whole-heartedly recommend any of those dining options, on Thanksgiving or otherwise. A rather random collection of restaurants, but who are we to question a location-based social networking site for mobile devices? A word of caution: Some Las Vegas restaurants might not exactly cater to the checking-in-on-mobile crowd, necessarily.<\/p>\n

The restaurant with the most check-ins last year at Thanksgiving, Wicked Spoon, opened along with The Cosmopolitan in 2010. The restaurant helped popularize small plates at Las Vegas buffets, a tradition that continues today at other spots like the Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace.<\/p>\n

\"fudge\"<\/a>
Nothing says Thanksgiving like mounds of fudge. We thank you and our thighs thank you, Wicked Spoon.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Also near the top of Foursquare’s list is Serendipity 3 at Caesars Palace. Serendipity 3 has more than 100 items on its menu, so plan to spend the entire Thanksgiving weekend there.<\/p>\n

\"Serendipity<\/a>
Finish off your Thanksgiving feast at Serendipity 3 with a Frrrozen Hot Chocolate. The three “r’s” make it three times as tasty as the typical frozen hot chocolate.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Filling out the trifecta of popular Vegas restaurants on Thanksgiving is Mon Ami Gabi at Paris Las Vegas, voted “Best Restaurant for People-Watching on the Las Vegas Strip” in the Vital Vegas Awards, which don’t entirely exist yet.<\/p>\n

\"Don't<\/a>
Don’t worry, Mon Ami Gabi only sounds snooty.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Foursquare looked at more than 4.5 billion check-ins from last year, Nov. 20-25, 2012 to compile its list of the busiest restaurants on Thanksgiving.
