Wauwatosa’s first ever dining week is coming in September – 10 Days In Tosa!

Wauwatosa's Dining Week

We had so much fun this weekend at East Tosa’s “Chili’n On the Avenue.”  Great weather, great turnout!

The chamber had a booth there to get the word out that our first dining week in Wauwatosa is coming September 12 – September 21st.  Dining week kicks off right after TosaFest.  That ought to be easy to remember.

Twenty of our Wauwatosa and area restaurants are bringing you 10 days of specials worth a value to you of $10 at each restaurant.    If you could make it to each of the places in the 10 days, you would save $190!

In the next few days, you can purchase an Access Card to these specials online at the website www.10DaysInTosa.com or in person at one of the three M&I branch locations in Wauwatosa.  We’ll also be out at all of the Tosa Farmers Markets throughout August and September up to the start of the event.

Stay tuned for more information.  You’re going to love seeing how many fine restaurants we’re lucky to have  here in Wauwatosa.  Wauwatosa  is most definitely a dining destination in the metro Milwaukee area.
