Howard County Restaurant Weeks Starts Today

Looking to spice up your winter routine? 

How about wild boar in tomato sauce over polenta with bacon and orange zest?

Or potato garlic soup with pesto? 

Howard County Tourism's Winter Restaurant Weeks begins today, Jan. 14,  and runs through Jan. 28, featuring fixed price menus at 20 local restaurants.

Special "Save and Savor Global Flavor" menus will feature international and seasonal dishes at prices ranging from $10.13 - $40.13. 

You don't have to travel to South America for Brazilian steak, but how about Ranazul in Maple Lawn? Or a marinated portabella sandwich from Baldwin's Station in Sykesville?

If you haven't ventured outside of your favorite regular spot in a while, Restaurant Weeks is the perfect excuse, with participating restaurants in Ellicott City, Columbia, Elkridge, Savage, Sykesville and Maple Lawn.

• Alexandra's
