- Diners enjoyed a scrumptious free Thanksgiving meal at Le Souk, plus live music and belly dancing.
In two seatings at Le Souk, about 200 people — mostly seniors who might otherwise have been alone or not able to afford a full Thanksgiving dinner — enjoyed camaraderie and more than 17 turkeys, with stuffing, sweet and mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, homemade gravy, vegetables, salad and pasta, plus dessert. The free dinner was courtesy of Le Souk, at LaGuardia Place and Bleecker St., and the Bleecker Area Merchants’ and Residents’ Association (BAMRA), with pies donated by Morton Williams supermarket. Entertainment included a live saxophone player and singer, as well as a belly dancer. The event also raised $500 in donations for Visiting Neighbors, which will be matched by Le Souk and BAMRA.
