This year's weeks repeats the local produce theme. More than 25 restaurants are creating special menus at prices ranging from $10.01 to $40.10. They're using local produce, meats, flowers and other items from July 26 to August 8, 2010.
The restaurant weeks kick off with the Howard County Film Feastival on July 20 at Clark's Elioak Farm in Ellicott City. They'll have a small farmers' market, samples of restaurant food made by local produce, and a screening of the 2009 documentary "Ingredients."
Admission is free, but they're looking for donations to provide families on the WIC program with coupons for the local farmers' markets. You need to register. It's limited to 100 guests. For more information, call 410-313-6500 or 410-313-2707.

We went to Venegas last night and were quite pleased. The service was excellent - clearly our waiter, Mark, was a professional. The food was wonderful as well. I had the crab cakes (not G&M's but still good!). My husband had a dish with beef & shrimp. The presentation was lovely, the food tasty, and we were quite happy when we left.
