Restaurant Week…Fort Myers, Florida Photographer
After reading this article, we were very excited to enjoy our FIRST Restaurant week in our hometown! The article reads: Touting “Delectable Cuisine at a Delicious Value,” Restaurant Week comes to Bell Tower Shops May 20 and extends through Memorial Day. Dining enthusiasts will enjoy special value prix fixe menus at all 10 Bell Tower eating establishments.
Taking cue from the popular New York City dining event that started in 1992, Restaurant Week at Bell Tower Shops allows diners to sample some of the best fare in Fort Myers at a fraction of the regular price. All of the establishments have agreed to provide an $18.87 prix fixe limited edition menu—a nod to the historically significant date 1887 which is when Lee County was incorporated.
“It’s a natural fit for Bell Tower Shops as we are considered the top destination for those in search of great food,” says Valerie Cope, Director of Marketing & Sponsorships. “Now that season is over, we hope Restaurant Week will encourage locals to venture out and sample the gastronomical treasures right in their backyard.”
We decided to go to Bistro 41! It has adorable outdoor seating and a divine romantic inside spot to relax.
Can you believe the price included a red or white wine too?!
My husband and myself chose the Award winning Pork Pot Roast. It had a surprising sweet flavor to it, that I actually liked.
Our friends Tom and Kathy chose the Chicken Breast 41. The flavor was savory with hints of mushroom flavor.
To top it off the meal came with this Chocolate Delight! Perfect way to end the evening!

Happy Tuesday Everyone!!
