If you’re Mexican chances are it will be Lotería and if you’re Dominican, Puerto Rican or Cuban—there will be Dominoes!

People will get lit.

Because there’s always plenty of booze at Latino Thanksgiving dinners—coquito included!

The youth have learned to come prepared to answer the same annoying questions.

Because they know they’ll be asked if they have a boyfriend, if they have a new job and why haven’t they lost weight.

Dominicans will have platanos.

We’re talking everything from platano maduro, tostones, pasteles, arroz con guadunles, pernil—it will all be there and more.
