into two convenient tasting times for participants, with ten restaurants per tour. Tickets
are $35 and must be purchased in advance. This is a rain or shine event.
Restaurant Week will feature special discounted menus from 20 downtown and
Wharf District restaurants. From three-course prefix menus, to free desserts and percent
off savings, the participating restaurants invite residents to get reacquainted with the
