There is no better season for food comas than winter. We have bulky sweaters, scarves, and coats to shield our full bellies. We are content to have discourse in cozy nooks for hours on end, putting off the cold a little longer. While repeat meals at Aquavit, Del Posto, or River Café might never bore the taste buds, this year, why not really expand your culinary horizons by exploring what another city’s restaurant week scene has to offer?
From Old Montreal to Old Fredericksburg and Philadelphia to Hoboken, these 11 East Coast winter restaurant weeks provide a great reason to get out of town—especially with prix-fixes as low as $10 for lunch and $20 for three-course dinner at award-winning spots.
