More than 70 restaurants will be working locally grown, fresh-from-the-farm items into a three-course meal that will either cost $25 or 2-for-$25. This year, there are 15, first time restaurants participating and more ethnic restaurants than ever before!
Not only do you get a tasty meal, but $1 of every Restaurant Week sold will be donated to a student scholarship at Secchia Institute for Culinary Education at Grand Rapids Community College.

He later transferred to Grand Rapids Community College, leading the team to an 11-0 record while throwing for more than 2,200 yards and 19 touchdowns, and rushing for another 10 touchdowns, in 10 games.
