Restaurant Week Grand Rapids, a super-fun time in GR, to eat at over 60 different restaurants.

Okay, good luck with trying to cover all 60, but you can certainly give it the old college try, and, at a very reasonable cost.

Don't forget that it has moved to a new summer time frame, – August 15 through 25 – to capture the essence of the local West Michigan harvest. Participating restaurants are ready to showcase their 3-course dinners at $25 per person – or 2 people-for-$25 with a farm-to-table emphasis.

And, here is exciting news,  menus are now available for viewing on the newly updated RestaurantWeekGR.com website. The new website showcases all of the 60+ restaurants, their sumptuous 3-course menus and allows viewers to search by location, type of restaurant and price range. Diners are encouraged to make their reservations early in order to guarantee a spot at their favorite participating restaurants.

I thought I'd list the over 60 restaurants who are participating in Restaurant Week Grand Rapids 2012.  They include:
