For some people, holiday plans don't form until the last minute. While this can lead to a book full of Christmas anecdotes, it can also bring on a lot of stress. It's very hard to find a place open on Christmas Day and, this year, there are just a couple of restaurants open to cater to those who would rather do the holidays outside of the home. Make a reservation before space runs out.
