As the penultimate month of the year, November proves to be a pretty busy month, with events, Christmas parties, and reunions being scheduled this early to avoid the holiday chaos. As it goes, this also means popular restaurants will be packed with diners this early which might not be a great experience for those just seeking to relax and enjoy their meals.
