Restaurant Week is upon us!

Restaurant Week is here! Restaurant Week is here! Well, almost here. It actually starts tomorrow, November 16th and runs through the 22nd. But, I can smell the goodness already!

Over 150 restaurants across the state will be participating in the event. Using the great theme of time as inspiration, these clever little buggers will offer customers a $20.08 per person prix fixe (that's fancy French for "fixed price") multi-course menu (all I have to say is, I'm glad we don't live in the year 10295! Though, by then, people will not have to eat for survival. This is a FACT! From the FUTURE!). Locally, West Hartford staples Bricco, The Corner Pug, Grants, Max's Oyster Bar, Pond House, and the Fernwood will be participating.

Back when I lived in Boston, Restaurant Week always gave the Professor and I an excuse to treat ourselves to a fancy dinner. Usually, the fixed menus at these events are quite large and very filling. If you have the opportunity, you should really take advantage of the Week's offers.
