I haven't been posting many articles on special events at local restaurants. They're in the calendar, but I often haven't managed to find the time. I'm a big fan of special events at restaurants. They can give the restaurant a nice boost, they can give the chef a chance to stretch and experiment, and most of all they're fun.

If your restaurant is holding a special event, I'd be happy to add it to the UVFood Calendar and, time and information permitting, run an article on it. Just drop me a note through the Contact form with all the relevant info.
