If you’re a fan of eating out, then you’re probably a fan of eating out at nice restaurants. The only problem with super fancy restaurants is not the price (which will be relatively high) but the fact that you aren’t sure if you’ll like what you get. While getting a bad $10 entrée isn’t a big deal (you don’t go back), getting a bad $30 or $40 or $60 entrée is infuriating. So how do you get to test try a fancy restaurant without shelling out top dollar on something you may or may not like? Restaurant Week!
Many of the major metropolitan cities have put together a Restaurant Week in which a collection of nice restaurants get together and offer a prix fixe (fixed price) three course menu that is affordable (in Baltimore, it was $30.07 per person). While the level of service you’ll get during Restaurant Week will be a little weaker because of the extra business, the food should be representative and give you an idea of the restaurants quality.
Here are a few Restaurant Week websites:
- Baltimore
- Boston
- New York City
- Washington D.C.
