CRESCENT Food: Restaurant Week South Carolina is January 12 – 22, 2012
For eleven nights in January, food lovers in South Carolina can dine in style at some of the state’s best restaurants for a fraction of the cost of a regular meal. Restaurant Week South Carolina will be held January 12 – 22, 2012.
This is the third year Restaurant Week South Carolina has offered consumers great values and helped fill restaurants, who prior to Restaurant Week, were normally slow during the month of January.
From fine dining to casual, participating restaurants will feature special menu items, promotions and discounts. Diners can sample new restaurants or dine at old favorites while tasting a variety of exceptional dishes being prepared by chefs at a great value. The event is a reminder that South Carolina is a culinary destination with top chefs, farm-to-table dining, wonderful wine and a lot more to discover and explore.
Restaurant Week South Carolina is an exciting event developed to showcase the outstanding culinary scene throughout the state. The South Carolina Hospitality Association in partnership with its local chapters and partners (the Greater Charleston Restaurant Association, the Greenville Hospitality Association, the Columbia Restaurant Association, the Myrtle Beach Area Hospitality Association and the Spartanburg Area Restaurant Association) have come together to create this event, which will showcase South Carolina as a premiere dining destination for local, regional, and national food lovers.
