Chicago – The Regional Transportation Authority (RTA) is reminding riders that the fastest and most convenient way to get to restaurants during Chicago Restaurant week is by taking transit. Restaurant Week offers two weeks of special gourmet, prixe fixe (fixed priced) menus at more than 250 participating restaurants around the region from January 30 to February 12. Whether riders take a bus or train, good eating is just a ride away.
“Enjoy a night out with family and friends as you visit different restaurants during Chicago’s Restaurant Week,” said RTA Executive Director Leanne Redden. “Our transit system can save you time and money when headed out to enjoy this annual event.”
