One of the many things I love about going to school in the town of Fairfield is the seemingly endless choices of delicious restaurants to eat at. And luckily, from Oct. 25 to Nov. 7, the state of Connecticut is hosting its annual “restaurant week,” which 28 Fairfield restaurants are participating in.
Within these 14 days, all dine-ins will offer varying features such as reduced prices or special menus for all customers!
