“Each fall, Dine About Park City provides a way of showing mutual gratitude between locals and our renowned dining community,” PCARA Executive Director Ginger Wicks said. “The relatively quieter month of October is the perfect time to enjoy top-tier menus for value prices and continue supporting our local restaurants who serve us and our flow of visitors all year long.”
The list of participating restaurants for Dine About is too extensive to list here, but ranges from Chimayo, Deer Valley Cafe, and LOMA, to Silver Star Cafe, Tupelo, and Shabu. Check the PCARA website for a complete list of participating restaurants.
