Yes, I am excited, like little kid Christmas excited. Yes I’ve already started making reservations (even for lunch, because I’m that kind of crazy.) It was actually after a Restaurant Week meal at Firestone’s last year that I wrote my very post on this here blog.
This year, the 7-day promotion, presented by the Downtown Frederick Partnership and the Tourism Council of Frederick County, runs from Monday March 5 through Sunday March 11. It’s the perfect excuse to taste something new or revisit an old favorite, and 21 participating restaurants means a lot of potential for a gastro-adventure.
Participating Restaurants include: (click through to see the featured menus)

I would love to hear where you’re thinking of going during this restaurant week. Or if you’re not from Frederick, does your hometown do something similar?
