So if you haven't read the story today, then maybe you don't know that Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant is no longer a part of City Restaurant Week.
Significant? Worthy of a front page story?
I think so - though I don't make the call on what to put on the front page.
Here's the thing: Iron Hill is one of Wilmington's largest and most popular restaurants. And for the eatery to bow out of a program that supposedly attracts at least 15,000 diners is telling.
This is certainly clear - when you get a bunch of strong-willed restaurateurs together you're going to get a lot of opinions. And you know what they say about too many cooks in the kitchen.....
I understand why organizers want to bring visiblity to downtown and Riverfront restaurants, and there are GREAT places to eat there, but I still don't quite get why the invitation hasn't been spread out to other city eateries, such as Moro.
Hey, Rehoboth's Restaurant Week which begins May 4 usually has more than 20 eateries participating. City Restaurant Week has 10.
Moro owner Michael DiBianca says he would certainly consider it - if asked. And he hasn't been. Getting a discount meal at Moro is certainly a bargain - just as a $35 three-course meal is at the Hotel du Pont's Green Room, which is the state's and East Coast's, most beautiful dining room.
What do you think?
