The word on 火鸡 street is that the Marriot HQ will not serve stuffing... Shanghaiist may elect to bring his own.

The ostrich is turkey?! I didn't pay close attention to the commercial, so I didn't catch it, but that would explain a lot! I thought it was the greatest thing in the world that they were trying to pass off ostrich for Thanksgiving dinner.

The 'Ostrich' pizza at Pizza Hut is really turkey - the Mandarin name for the dish is "Da Niao" or "Big Bird" and something must have got lost in translation. Speaking of "Lost in Translation" - I love that the Chinese title for the movie is "Lost in Tokyo".
