We’ve all grown accustomed to the “cancelled” signs on all of our upcoming Facebook events; however, there’s one event series that is continuing as planned, and it’s a fall favorite! Every September, dozens of restaurants in Center City Philadelphia, all just minutes from your 1213 Walnut apartment, open their doors for multi-course, discounted meals as part of Philadelphia Restaurant Week. The series, Sept. 13-25, will include more than 70 participants, many of them among the city’s most award-winning culinary standouts. Some will serve both lunch and dinner options, many will have outdoor dining available and, for the first time, diners can get Restaurant Week meals to go. While the event may look a bit different this year, the taste—and savings!—will be just as outstanding.

With so many mouthwatering participants, it can be hard to figure out where to go. If you’re looking for somewhere close to home, you can’t get much closer than Barbuzzo, just one block from your 1213 Walnut apartment. The restaurant is offering lunch and dinner options, as well as takeout, so you can enjoy the award-winning cuisine both wherever and whenever you’d like.

Barbuzzo specializes in Mediterranean food, with an eclectic menu full of Italian, Spanish and Greek influences. Start with roasted beet salad, olives or mushroom and corn toast, first courses that will have you feeling less guilty about indulging in the main dishes! With selections like grilled octopus, pastas brimming with veggies and steak served housemade salsas and roasted veggies, be sure to bring your appetite. Complement your international meal with one of dozens of wines from around the world, or opt for a signature cocktail or craft beer, which are also available to go.

So make your reservation, grab your mask and enjoy a well-deserved night out on the town this fall!
