Get ready to make reservations. Eat. Drink. Restaurant Week returns Monday, Oct. 23 through Sunday, Oct. 29. You can try special menu items and specialty cocktails from more than 60 Triad restaurants, breweries, and bars. Half are in and around Winston-Salem, which means you won’t have to travel far for a good meal.

Some businesses will be showcasing special items you’ll only be able to taste during the week-long event. Others will be featuring customer favorites that are staples on the menu. Here are a few drinks + dishes that have us drooling:

Many of the recipes will incorporate Duke’s mayo as a nod to the event’s sponsor. You can find a full list of participating restaurants and their specials here.

This is the third season Triad Food and Beverage Coalition has hosted the event. The goal is to support local restaurateurs and chefs who create fresh and flavorful creations for residents to enjoy.
