Corvallis “Top” List
Corvallis, Oregon frequently makes the “top list” for one reason or another… I’m going to start posting them, as I run across them. I think it will be fun to see how many I can collect:

Great Food at Good Prices: Corvallis Culinary Week
Corvallis Cullinary Week should once again, prove to be an excellent opportunity to get out, sample some local restaurants and enjoy some really great food. The 2012 event is held January 22nd to January 28th. The week is geared toward offering the Chef’s specialty dinners at only $10.00 per person. Meals will be paired with local (Benton County) wines (cost of wine is not included in the meal prices).
The family and I attended a few of the offerings last year and were rewarded with some excellent meals at great prices. We will be sure to check in again. More information can be found at the Visit Corvallis web site: Corvallis Culinary Week 2012. Hope to see you there!
