Downtown Dining Week Returns

After a successful first year, Downtown Dining Week is set to return November 15th-21st.

The idea came from Felicia Willett of Felicia Suzanne’s.

Willett says a number of factors came into play to set the event in motion, but she notes that it chiefly boils down to the fact that the downtown restaurant scene is unusually close. They had banded together to before to hold progressive dinners, and since other cities had held restaurant weeks, it seemed worth a try.

As Willett remembers it, she made some calls to her friends at Majestic, McEwen’s, Sole, and others.

“Y’all interested in this?” she asked.

“Yeah, absolutely” was the answer.
