"It is two weeks, indeed. It's actually 10 days," said Shannon.
It takes place January 17th through the 22nd and January 24th through the 29th.
"The basic premise is a three-course dinner for $35 and a three-course lunch for $20," said Shannon.
The event has become a mainstay of the Philadelphia dining scene.
"We started in 2003 so I guess the 13th year and probably the 25th or 26th promotion," said Shannon.
And Shannon says it has become increasingly more popular with each year.
"I can tell you that the restaurant week page is the most heavily visited page on our website because people use it! Not just during restaurant week, but year-round as a restaurant guide."
