More than 50 Montgomery County restaurants are participating in “MoCo Eats Week,” which will continue through Monday, May 3. Warm spring weather has contributed to an outstanding turnout for the opening days of the special week that was organized by Visit Montgomery and the County’s Department of Alcohol Beverage Services.
MoCo Eats Week was organized to allow diners to enjoy food and drinks at discounted prices. It is a great opportunity for residents and visitors to explore the diverse culinary scene in the County. For restaurants, it is a way to encourage old customers to return to their favorite places and to introduce themselves to new customers enticed by the campaign.
The event is not a typical restaurant week. In MoCo Eats Week, participating restaurants are not limited to specific areas nor are given strict instructions on how meals must be offered. MoCo Eats Week is open to all restaurants, as well as craft beverage producers and local food producers.
