The Continuing Saga of Restaurant Week: West Chester Edition

(West Chester, PA - April 19, 2011) If you didn't make it to Center City Restaurant Week In Philly for its twelve-day run during January, there was the newly established Main Line Restaurant Week in April. For all those slackers out there who couldn't muster the energy to make it to either, here's your last chance: West Chester Restaurant Week. Also, for all you Philly foodies who just want some burbs cuisine, here's the website's description:

West Chester Restaurant Week is a seven-day celebration of the culinary scene in West Chester, PA from Monday, April 25 through Sunday, May 1. Each participating restaurant offers a special multi-course, fixed-price menu for lunch and dinner. The event gives diners a chance to discover new eateries or get reacquainted with old favorites at a great value.


Fortunately for West Chester Restaurant Week, that unoriginal paragraph is accompanied by NBC Philadelphia's video:







Diners at WC's Restaurant Week will also need to be open to the element of surprise: there is no complete list of particpating restaurants, so the best shot is calling ahead or taking a walk on the wild side by just showing up and seeing if your favorite eatery is in on the prix-fix menu action.

My recommendation? Bypass the college-special joints and go straight to Limoncello Ristorante - amazing Italian fare, and a complimentary shot of homemade limoncello to wash it down. And if you must relive your college drinking days (or you happen to still be in them) then Más Mexicali's rooftop section is perfect for their potent Margs and tasty TexMex.

More information (well, a little more) about the event and parking is online at http://www.westchesterbid.com/dining.php -
