Restaurant Week = Date Night, Part Deux
Ahhhhh … just thinking about Date Night lets a cool, refreshing wave of seratonin wash over my stressed-out mommy brain.
But with our tight budget, dining out is definitely a rarity. In fact, we visit restaurants no more than twice a month, if that. (cue the violins)
Flat-broke foodies, rejoice! The twice-a-year Restaurant Week is on the horizon, and it’s the perfect opportunity for a relatively inexpensive Date Night.
Many of the Miami Valley’s best restaurants offer a three-course meal for just $20.10. Even better: $1 from each meal goes to charity, with more than $57,000 being raised to date, according to the Miami Valley Restaurant Association’sWeb site.
Through past RW’s, we’ve enjoyed lovely meals at Meadowlark, Rue Dumaine, Coco’s Bistro, Sweeney’s Seafood, Jay’s and El Meson.
Click here to see tantalizing menus from participating restaurants, and visit Mark Fisher’s Taste blog to see what local diners think or post your own reviews.
But make your reservations now: Restaurant Week specials run Jan. 24-29.
If you want to give a subtle hint to your significant other, send a link to this blog with the subject line: TAKE ME OUT TO DINNER! (it has worked for me)
And if you miss RW this time, be sure to watch DaytonDailyNews.com’s restaurant guide for updates on the summer version of the event. Bon appetite!

Sorry, Hillbilly: I wrote about my love affair with Restaurant Week after the summer event, and this is just “Part Two” of my RW ramblings. It can be found in the “great deals” category of the archives.
