APPLETON, WI (WTAQ) – Inspired by similar attractions in Green Bay, Milwaukee and Madison, volunteers have put together the first ever Fox Cities Restaurant Week.
The event runs from Thursday August 27 through Thursday September 3.
“We received a lot of responses from the restaurants that were along the lines of thank you we’ve been waiting for this,” says event coordinator Samantha Dennis. “They’re really hungry for something like this, they’ve seen it work in their neighboring communities, and have wanted it in the Fox Cities area.”
Participating restaurants throughout the Fox Cities will be offering price-fixed, three-course menu options: $12 for lunch, and $25 or $35 options for dinner. The offer excludes beverages, tax and gratuity.
No tickets, coupons or cards are required for redemption. However, reservations are recommended to reserve your spot.

Since it’s the first turn for Fox Cities Restaurant Week, Dennis says customer feedback is important.
“We will be doing surveying, and there also is an incentive for people who fill out a survey,” says Dennis. “They will receive $100 in dining gift certificates to the different participating restaurants, and we’ll give out 13 of those.”
Diners are encouraged to share their experiences and post photos of their meals using the hashtag #foxfoodie. Like and follow Fox Cities Restaurant Week on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@foxfoodie).
