Culinaria San Antonio to Hold Inaugural Winter Restaurant Week January 19 24!

The San Antonio restaurant scene has literally exploded over the past 2-3 years...its been such fun to see so many great new restaurants popping up all over the city! Culinaria is San Antonio’s premier food and drink non-profit. Their goal is to celebrate, educate, and collaborate with local chefs, winemakers, and bartenders to support the city’s food and drink culture. To help expand San Antonios culinary reputation on both the regional and national level, Culinaria coordinates and hosts elegant wine dinners, extravagant cocktail tastings, and fun food and wine events throughout the year. Theyre kicking off 2015 with their first ever Winter San Antonio Restaurant Week January 19th through 24th!! Restaurant Week will highlight many of the best local chefs and restaurants. Summer Restaurant Week is held annually in August and is one of the citys culinary highlights. I know the Winter edition will be very popular as well.
