Jersey Shore Restaurant Week will be happening April 16th to April 25th! IT'S RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER!!!

That means that you can enjoy a 3-course dinner which include an appetizer, a main course and my favorite part, a dessert.

These meals will cost either $23.21 or $33.21!

If you take part in restaurant week....tell your friends.

If you take part in restaurant week....post it to social media.

The hope is to promote this event as much as possible to help our Jersey Shore restaurants because after the year we have had...you know they need it.

Restaurants will have to abide by COVID-19 restrictions, obviously, but that does mean that limited-capacity indoor dining, outdoor dining, takeout and delivery.

There are also a few events happening throughout the Jersey Shore Restaurant Week.

Let's take a look:

Chef's Invitational Kick-Off Event

April 16th, 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM

Now THIS is right up my alley -- there will be a spectacular raw bar with ocean-fresh shrimp, clams and oysters. And don't forget the wine and beer specials! In addition, there will be live music from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM with Mike Deez. For this event, you do not need to buy a ticket in advance.
