There’s nothing that nourishes the body, helps to provide energy, and keeps people alive like food. Outside of grocery stores, some of the best places to get food, at least as far as I know, are at restaurants. They’ve got loads of it.

That’s probably why the Fayetteville Visitors Bureau names a week after them a couple times a year here in town. The fourth semi-annual Restaurant Week begins today, Aug. 12, and runs through Aug. 22.

A handful of restaurants are offering specials or prix-fix menus so far this year, and sometimes more are added as the week progresses. See for yourself at dineinfayetteville.com. Eat something delicious.
