Earlier today we basked in the glory that is our city's fabulous summer food festival line-up. In other positive local news, DineLA announced the participants for its first ever summer restaurant week. Traditionally DineLA took place during the fall and winter, but they've added another 12 full days for diners looking to get a deal on some of our best restaurants. Spanning from July 16-27, this summer's event will include weekends, which is a first for our city's restaurant week. Angelenos can partake in two-course lunches for $15, $20, or $25 and three-course or small plate dinners priced at $25, $35, or $45. The list of participating restaurants can be found at the DineLA site. Exciting additions to the group are A Frame, Farmshop, and the new Mo-Chica Downtown. Where will you be doing your discounted dining?
