By Hadas Kuznits
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- It's time to start making those Restaurant Week reservations.
Philadelphia's "Restaurant Week" -- actually two weeks -- takes place this year January 22nd through 27th and January 29th through February 3rd.
Michelle Shannon of the Center City District says this is a citywide promotion to showcase Philadelphia's vibrant culinary scene.
"Some of the restaurants that we have in Center City are obviously top notch and come with a top-notch price tag," she says. "(Restaurant Week) gives people the opportunity to get in at a slightly lower cost and see if they enjoy the restaurant."
