Which restaurants will you be going to? It is 10 days, covering two full weekends and has basically all of Detroit's best restaurants participating. I am curious to hear everyone's opinion...

Hmm. The web site says that information will be posted "soon," but it's only a couple of weeks away, and nothing yet. However, a list of restaurants is here (scroll down to the entry for August 17). There also are a couple of menus on the page.

The price ($27) isn't bad. D.C.'s current Restaurant Week is $35.09 for dinner. It might be worth a weekend trip from the west side of the state. Pending more information, I'd probably opt for Roast, Cuisine, and Saltwater or Wolfgang Puck's Grille. How do those sound to you?

"Imagine all the food you have eaten in your life and consider that you are simply some of that food, rearranged."  -Max Tegmark, physicist

 

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

"...in the mid-’90s when the internet was coming...there was a tendency to assume that when all the world’s knowledge comes online, everyone will flock to it. It turns out that if you give everyone access to the Library of Congress, what they do is watch videos on TikTok."  -Neil Stephenson, author, in The Atlantic

 

"In questions of science, the authority of a thousand is not worth the humble reasoning of a single individual." -Galileo Galilei, physicist and astronomer

Click the "restaurants" link in the top navigation toolbar to get a list of restaurants, then click on the name to get a description and a menu. Looks like they added the info, but forgot to change the "soon" language on the front page.

I've been to Saltwater, and it was really good. And I'm sure Roast is great. Don't know about the other two.
