Psssst: Detroit Restaurant Week Returns

The nitty-gritty tiddly-bits have yet to be finalized, but it has been officially announced that Detroit Restaurant Week will return again this fall for another 10 days of fine dining frenzy.

But wait, what's this??? A press release??? Heavens to Mergatroyd!

PS, I will be the official blogger once again, and we're going to mix it up a bit this time. Don't worry, I'm sure I'll still be able to squeeze in a long-winded ramble or two.

"The Detroit Restaurant Week dinner promotion returns Friday, September 24 through Sunday, October 3 at select fine dining restaurants located in greater Downtown Detroit.

'Detroit Restaurant Week is a great opportunity for residents from southeastern Michigan and visitors from Windsor, Ontario and beyond to enjoy outstanding three-course meals for just $28 per person (excluding tax, gratuity, and beverages).

'The 10-evening promotion has become increasingly popular among restaurant customers since it launched in the fall of 2009 when 27,454 covers (persons seated) were recorded. For the spring edition the covers increased by 5.5 percent to 28,958. The combined cover total for both campaigns was an impressive 56,412.
