I’ve been in Texas and completely disconnected from all news. So here’s the big news that I almost forgot –
next week is Restaurant Week! Yay!
March 3 through March 9 you can eat at most of the Greater Cincinnati Independent restaurants for $25.08 for a 3-course meal. Each restaurant will have a special menu for the event.

Restaurant Week, long a fixture in larger cities and more recently, Dayton Made its first Cincinnati appearance in September 2007. It’s the perfect time for it, with the
wonderful resurgence in great restaurants the city is experiencing.
What is restaurant week? Well, to start with, it’s a great idea.
From March 3-9, 2008, many independently owned restaurants
will each be offering a 3-course prix-fixe dinner menu for only $25.08
per person. The price does not
include drinks, taxes, or gratuities. For a little more than $25, you
can go enjoy a 3 course meal at some of the best restaurants in
Cincinnati.
This is your chance, folks, to go try a restaurant you might not
normally try, maybe in a neighborhood you might not normally be near.
Go out and try something new – it’s only $25!
