Dining Out In Windsor


Here's something I saw recently about dining out in Vancouver. I think it's a terrific idea.

When I worked in London, England, the Times sponsored something similar with restaurants not only in London but around the country.

I can't think of a better way to visit a top restaurant and pay a reasonable price while at the same time building up traffic for the restaurant in a slow period. Moreover, with all of the vineyards in the area, this would be the perfect opportunity to boost our local wines as well as our local restaurants.

I would love to partner with someone to do this in Windsor, perhaps with Windsor Eats or even the local traditional media. Let me know if there is interest.
