Hudson Valley Restaurant Week is soon approaching for all the  foodies in all of us!

Now is your time to learn more of the Hudson Valley's local bounty and to call to make your reservations for the Hudson Valley Restaurant Week which is March 18 - 31, 2012.

The Hudson Valley Restaurant Week is your opportunity to explore a record 198 restaurants in your local area or Dutchess County or expand your palate to include those in the Hudson Valley. Hudson Valley Restaurant Week promotes the participating restaurants in this unique event as they reach out with their culinary cuisines. It is great eating, great price and a real connection to local. Just think when you dine in New York City the ingredients are FROM the green markets and farms - Hudson Valley Restaurant Week brings you food and wine that are IN our local farms and at our local green markets.

 How does Hudson Valley Restaurant Week work? 
For two weeks, from March 18-31, top restaurants in the mid- and lower-Hudson Valley offer special three-course dinner menus for $29.95 (plus beverage, tax and gratuity). Many also offer 3-course lunches for $20.95 (plus beverage, tax and gratuity). Many feature Hudson Valley products on their menu.
 
Hudson Valley Restaurant Week is more than a celebration of foods and wine - it is a celebration with friends to dine and play at excellent value in pocket book range. We look forward to and  enjoy our annual gathering of friends at restaurants throughout the Hudson Valley during the Hudson Valley Restaurant Week. We have made our reservations and hope you will too for this delicious showcase  of restaurants that participate in the Hudson Valley Restaurant Week.
