Asheville Restaurant Week is put on annually by the Asheville Chamber of commerce. Here are a few words from them on the event:
During Asheville Restaurant Week, you would be hard pressed to find a restaurant that doesn’t embrace the key tenets of farm-to-table dining. Asheville is home to nearly 250 independent restaurants, 20 regional tailgate markets and a growing number of craft breweries. Our commitment to using fresh, locally-sourced ingredients, has earned Asheville the designation as one of the top ten food and wine destinations in the United States.
Now you can enjoy our tastiest cuisine during Asheville Restaurant Week, taking place January 21-27. Participating restaurants will provide special menus or pricing.
