Restaurant Week starts tonight

According to the trusty calendar, Restaurant Week begins Monday, January 25. And, already, at least one of the 18 participating restaurants, Fossett's, indicates that it is sold out. Oh, well, that leaves 17 others for last-minute culinary thrift. For any diner who has ever dreamed about fine dining without breaking the bank, Restaurant Week is that dream”Š come true. Modeled on similar events in other cities, this is seven days of good food and good fun. Diners get to choose from each participating restaurant’s special prix fixe menu and enjoy three courses– typically an appetizer, an entree, and dessert– for just $26. (Beverages, tax, and gratuity not included.)
