WASHINGTON, DC -- Getting cabin fever after all this snow? Head out to your favorite restaurants (or try a new one) now through next Wednesday.

That’s right, Metropolitan Washington Restaurant Week has been extended, due to the blizzard that hit the area over the weekend and snowed in so many.

Originally scheduled through Sunday, the restaurant week offering special meals and deals is extended through next Wednesday.

Metropolitan Restaurant Week returns this year with three-course fixed price lunch ($22) and/or dinner ($35) menus at 250 of the Washington DC area’s favorite dining establishments. Diners that book reservations through RWDMV.com, and opt-in to receive emails on exclusive deals on meals and other food related events, are automatically entered to win prizes.

Diners who book reservations for the winter promotion will be automatically entered to win prizes that include:

• A local weekend getaway at a top hotel that includes a dining package
• Tickets to the 2016 RAMMY Awards
• Valentine’s Day package and gift certificates to local restaurants.

Prizes are always a big component of Restaurant Week. One lucky diner from the previous promotion was awarded a weekend getaway for two people in New York City including travel, lodging and lunch, brunch and dinner.
