Restaurant Week

The only thing better than delicious food is getting delicious food for a deal.  Fortunately, it’s Restaurant Week!  Almost 125 restaurants are offering three-course dinners for $35 (or lunch for $20!) between now and September 27.

Oh, and the only thing better than getting delicious food for a deal is wearing awesome shoes when you go.  How about shoes inspired by some of the restaurants?  Let’s start off with some cornbread, yellow tomato gazpacho, pork belly with wax bean and green tomato, and malted milk custard from Pumpkin BYOB.

The Tricky Wedge Sandal by Charles by Charles David is such a lovely shoe: a woven 4.25-inch wedge and one-inch platform topped by straps of orange patent leather.  Almost like pumpkins in a basket, wouldn’t you say?  Also available in navy, nude, and black; your choice for $60 from DSW.

Or perhaps you’re in the mood for horiatiki salad, keftedes, leg of lamb with mint pistachio pesto, and loukoumades at Opa:

The Emera by Vince Camuto is very evocative of the Greek isles, what with its suede and leather upper studded with round and rectangular rhinestones.  It zips up the back to let you in, and is also available in black, aqua, and an especially lovely violet.  Yours for $66 from Nordstrom.

Maybe head to Oyster House, and enjoy four oysters on the half shell, clams casino, sautéed flounder, and s’mores:

The Pearl Pointy Pump by Alexander McQueen is a red suede pump with a pointed toe, 3.75-inch heel with a plate of gold around the back of the heel—studded with pearls!  Pearls, you know, from oysters.  Well, not these, not really.  But for $1095 from Zappos, I suppose there was always the possibility…

So come hungry and enjoy the next two weeks!

Restaurant Week runs from now through September 27, but not Saturday, September 21.  Make your reservations today!
