Growing up, my mom was a really good cook, but I still got excited when Swanson’s Frozen Dinners were on the menu because it meant that we got a babysitter and an evening of TV to look forward to. This was back in the days when The Brady Bunch and The Partridge Family ruled the airwaves and tiny apple cobblers and quadrants full of peas, carrots, and corn were tres gourmet to my extremely undiscerning palate.
While I grew up in the ‘70s, apparently the appeal of TV dinners lives on for several generations. Now the folks at Dom’s Taverna and Dang Burger are teaming for a special TV Dinner Matinee Series that kicks off on Monday, December 1.
As they wrote, “Step back in time for a nostalgic dining experience packed with cozy film vibes, comfort food, and drinks. Think vintage TV dinners — reimagined with chef-driven flavor and modern flair.”
