Worcester Restaurant Week 2010

Many of us love to dine out.  After all, it’s kind of nice to have our food orders taken, water glasses continually filled, and meals graciously delivered.

Naturally, a number of us do not have the resources or desire to do this on a daily basis; nonetheless, it’s definitely a treat every now and then.

Well, if you are someone who enjoys restaurants, then the next two weeks are for you.

Why?  The Worcester Restaurant Week of 2010 is now being held August 2 until August 15.  Numerous restaurants are participating, and the cost, at least when you consider all the food you get, is excellent.

How much is it?  Well, for $22.10 per person (excluding tax and tip), here’s an example of a few of the 3-course offerings.

  • Tweeds Pub.  Onion soup as a starter, flame-broiled steak served with potato and veggie, and grapenut pudding as a delectable ending.  (By the way, there are two other 3-course meals to choose from!).
  • Sole Proprietor.  First course choices consist of green salad, jumbo shrimp cocktail, calamari, or California roll.  Entrees options are haddock, tuna (we’re not talking canned here), or grilled salmon.  And the finale?  Flourless chocolate cake, sundae, or chocolate cup.  Yummy!!!
  • Via ItalianTable.  Beginnings?  Jumbo shrimp cocktail, goat cheese salad with asparagus, insalata mista, or calamari.  Second course?  Tuscan shrimp scampi, sirloin of beef, or chicken parm.  Sweet conclusion?  Gelato, cannoli, or panna cotta.
  • 111 Chop House.  For starters, there’s a choice of lobster bisque, jumbo shrimp cocktail, or fried calamari.  The main event includes a selection of hanger steak with scallop stuffed jumbo shrimp, baked haddock with scallop stuffing, or ribeye steak.  Did we save the best for last?  Perhaps, especially if you enjoy fruit cobbler, chocolate tulip cup, or vanilla ice cream with cookie.

There are numerous dining facilities participating in Worcester Restaurant Week 2010 in addition to the options listed above.  Some others?  Aspara, Biagio’s Evo, Flying Rhino, Webster House, Viva Bene, Old Timer, Squire’s Val’s  (and many more!).

Dining out tends to brighten up many a face; after all, everyone has to eat.
