Cacia's Bakery once again opens its brick oven to public for Thanksgiving

SOUTH PHILADELPHIA (WTXF) - Residents from all over Philadelphia are once again 'flocking' to a South Philadelphia bakery on Thanksgiving Day in order to cook their turkeys in their famous brick oven!

Every year around 6 a.m. Thanksgiving Day Cacia's Bakery opens its doors to the public, allowing them to roast their turkeys in their oven.

The practice has become such a tradition; lines have begun to form outside the bakery up to an hour before they open.
