Has anybody else dined out for Restaurant Week?
I know most folks wait until toward the end of the week to go out to eat, but hey, it’s Restaurant Week, and I know some of you have taken full advantage already of the $20.07 price on three-course meals at more than 40 local eateries.
How was it? Which choice of entree did you like best? The rest of us would like to hear. Don’t make me beg …
I visited Jay’s Restaurant on Monday night …
… to kick off Restaurant Week in style, in part because Amy Haverstick, Jay’s daughter and the restaurant’s general manager, is the chair of the Miami Valley Restaurant Association’s Restaurant Week committee, which means she helped organize the event that benefits a local charity (this time, it’s Cox Arboretum). Being committee chair I think means she cajoled and begged and browbeat her fellow restaurant owners and managers to participate — but of course, I could be wrong about that. In any event, my Greek salad, perfectly cooked salmon filet and Baklava were indeed a bargain at twenty bucks, and the restaurant always knocks 25 percent off its wine list prices for bottles of wine sold on Monday nights. Heck, it was almost like stealin’ a meal. Almost.
So what have you liked? Where are you going next?
Thanks and cheers!
